Answer:

The famous Richard Kipling´s phrase is usually interpreted as a statement of the alleged mission of Europeans to bring civilization and progress to backward peoples. It is seen as a racist justification of colonization of other peoples by many critics, as a statement of white man´s superiority. The other phrase refers to the exploitation and injustice suffered by colonized people in Africa and Asia in the hands of their white colonial masters.

All of these were factors leading to the split of the Church into Western Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodox except:
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a) the introduction of Germanic traditions into the western church.

Explanation:

The split of the Christian Church into Western Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodox, also known as the Great Schism (1054), was the result of years of tensions arising from theological, doctrinal, political and even language differences between them, in which the introduction of German traditions into the western church took no part.

The differences in language (the Western Roman Empire used Latin mainly while the Eastern Empire used Greek) made it difficult for both sides to communicate and understand each other effectively, and eventually, they started to grow more and more suspicious of the other and have different approaches on the doctrine. Other factors leading to the Great Schism were disagreements revolving around the role of religious images: while many from the Eastern Empire were against of worshiping religious images, the Western people firmly supported using them; and disagreements over the roles of clergy members, for instance, the Western Empire regarded the pope as their spiritual leader and claimed that he had authority over the patriarchs (religious leaders in the East), but the Eastern Empire strongly disagreed with this.
