Although the reference in 'Inherit the Wind' is to the teaching of evolution, one of Henry Drummond's speeches, if applied instead to Islam, seems disturbingly apposite :-
“Can't you understand? ............. You may turn Catholic against Protestant, and Protestant against Protestant, and try to foist your own religion upon the mind of man. If you can do one, you can do the other. Because fanaticism and ignorance is forever busy, and needs feeding. And soon, your Honor, with banners flying and with drums beating, we'll be marching backward, BACKWARD, through the glorious ages of that Sixteenth Century when bigots burned the man who dared bring enlightenment and intelligence to the human mind"
Have we actually taken the first steps on that path?
