Unjust laws exist; shall we be content to obey them, or shall we endeavor to amend them, and obey them until we have succeeded,

or shall we transgress them at once? Men generally, under such a government as this, think that they ought to wait until they have persuaded the majority to alter them. They think that, if they should resist, the remedy would be worse than the evil. But it is the fault of the government itself that the remedy is worse than the evil. It makes it worse. Why is it not more apt to anticipate and provide for reform? Why does it not cherish its wise minority? Why does it cry and resist before it is hurt? Why does it not encourage its citizens to be on the alert to point out its faults, and do better than it would have them?” Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience 1849

What was the main idea behind the domino theory?
Ratling [72]
<span>The domino theory, which governed much of U.S. foreign policy beginning in the early 1950s, held that a communist victory in one nation would quickly lead to a chain reaction of communist takeovers in neighboring states. In Southeast Asia, the United States government used the domino theory to justify its support of a non-communist regime in South Vietnam against the communist government of North Vietnam, and ultimately its increasing involvement in the long-running Vietnam War (1954-75). In fact, the American failure to prevent a communist victory in Vietnam had much less of a global impact than had been assumed by the domino theory. Though communist regimes did arise in Laos and Cambodia after 1975, communism failed to spread throughout the rest of Southeast Asia.
I hope this was of help.

vova2212 [387]
The correct answer is <span>fish appeared in ponds that had been dry the previous season

This is according to the spontaneous generation idea which is opposite of the biogenesis idea which states that all living things come from other living things. The idea of spontaneous generation is mostly obsolete nowadays and no serious scientist has adopted the idea of it since the middle of the 19th century due to evidence of biogenesis. </span>
