The French Revolution

1) They people were mad because the Nobels, the King and the Clergy had way too much power.

2) A Peasent might have grumbled over the prices of bread, the prices doubled.

3) It's showing the First and Second Estate on top of the Third Estate.

4) It was horrible. They barely had anything.

5) They resented them because the way they were treated.

6) Many people were influenced. Many people of all races. Most recently it was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

7) It was banned because the First and Second Estate didn't want any power or rights to go to the Third Estate.

The Enlightment


John Locke was a very influencial person because of his thoughts and how he thought. He had good views on life and thought that the people didn't need kings or queens theycould govern themselves. He thought that people of all races and classes should be born equal. He also influenced the U.S Consitution. He was encouraging revolution.

Trail of Galilieo


In the trail of Galileo, he tried to explain to the town that the Earth revolve around the Sun and not vise versa. They didn't believe him so the tried to excummicate him. He also tried to explain that when heavy and light things fall at the same time they will fall at the same time. The town insist that he was wrong but he was actually right. In the end he was put on house arrest for the rest of his life.

The Scientific Method

The scientific method was a new way of thinking. Scientist who try do prove or disprove this theory test this experiment over, and over again. This is most commonly used with the Creation vs. Evolution theory. This was also tested with Aristotle theory of different weight falling at different speeds. In the end he was proved wrong.

Evolution vs. Creation

Evolution is a process which involves inheriting traits. It's also a process that involves offspring’s. This is believed that all organisms had to be descended from common ancestry. In this case it is believe that humans descended from monkeys and gorillas. Then they evolved into cavemen. This evolves to humans.

Creation is the religious belief that life, Earth and the whole universe was created in the original form by a deity or deities, whose whereabouts are supposable. This talks about how the earth was created by God in seven days.

I believe in Creation because if anything evolved it had to be created first. The dirt can’t just evolve into a bug and bugs evolved into a animal and etc. That is just impossible.
