Why was HELIOCENTRISM so radical from a religious perspective?

History

Paha777 [63]2 years ago
7 0
Heliocentrism was the initial breakthrough in the Scientific Revolution which came from Polish mathematician and astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus. His essential argument was that “at the middle of all things lies the sun” and that the earth, like the other planets, revolves around it. Thus, the reason why this theory was so radical from religious perspective was the fact that earth was no longer unique or at the obvious center of God’s attention. This challenged the previous understanding of the Catholic Church that the attention of the entire universe was centered on the earth and its human inhabitants, among whom God’s plan for salvation unfolded.

P.S. I hope this helped as I just read about this in ‘Ways of the World’ by Robert W. Strayer for AP World History :)

The Assembly of the Tribes was organized into 35 groups based on __________.
DerKrebs [107]

The Assembly of the Tribes was a democratic body which represented all Roman citizens. It was divided into 35 tribes. The division did not represent 35 ethnic groups, but it was elaborated using geographical criteria. Sometimes these criteria were vague, as the tribe membership was inherited from parents to children and heirs might have moved from the original geographic area. 31 were rural tribes and 4 were urban tribes.

In the reunions of the Assembly of the Tribes, all the tribes gathered to decide on legislative, electoral and judicial matters. Each tribe had one vote. Direct democracy was exercised by Romans. Therefore, decisions were taken by majority vote inside each of the tribes first, where all citizens voted, and then each tribe brought the option they had previously decided to the assembly.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

He is the "small child"

Explanation:

As the text states, the person in question starts talking after the divinations. He starts by acknowledging the existence of a king that seems to be sick (the king will not suffer harm + the king had improved). So the person is not the king.

Then he states "I, the small child, have obtained a renewed mandate from the three kings. It is the long range that must be considered, and so I await my fate". Therefore, it is possible to inferr that the person talking is the small child.
