The enthusiasm for faith has become a weapon for ignorance. The film has a fierce debate on the conflict between belief in God and science, but it is not the only thing that is really thought-provoking. The important thing is that everyone has the right to think and express opinions. The wonderful court debate plays throughout the film, and the plot is actually based on real time, which is indeed a bit weird~

Matthew Harrison Brady: I have been to their cities and I have seen the altars upon which they sacrifice the futures of their children to the gods of science. And what are their rewards? Confusion and self-destruction. New ways to kill each other in wars. I tell you gentlemen the way of science is the way of darkness.
