Context

Crusaders, like William Jennings Bryan, that think that they have God on their side cannot stomach Doubt. - Clarence Darrow[1] At the Scopes Monkey Trial Bryan, a staunch believer in State's Rights, declared that each state's people could decide for themselves what was true. Apparently truth was not related to doubt.
