Different views of the role of Christianity in the face of the growth of modern science and research methods fueled the conflict between the liberal modernist and conservative fundamentalist factions of the Presbyterian Church during the 1920s-30s. Modernists such as [[Harry Emerson Fosdick]], Henry Sloane Coffin, and Robert E. Speer promoted inclusiveness and denied the inerrancy of scripture, while fundamentalists such as [[J. Gresham Machen]], Clarence MacArtney, and [[William Jennings Bryan]] defended traditional doctrine. The fundamentalist cause, popularly identified with antievolutionism, was damaged during the [[Scopes Trial|trial in Tennessee of biology teacher John Scopes in 1925 for teaching eolution. In 1929, fundamentalist leaders Machen and Macartney left their positions at the [[Princeton Theological Seminary]] to found the [[Westminster Theological Seminary]] to defend the reformed faith.<ref>Bradley J.
