The Scopes Law

What is The Scopes Law?

The term was coined by Gaming Steve Message Board member Logan Felipe in a thread discussing evolution*. The law is named after "the State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes", a court case that provides a well documented, real world example of the law in action. The law's creation was also partially inspired by Godwin's Law.

The Scopes Law states: "When discussing evolution in the presence of a creationist, the discussion always becomes a religious debate".
