Monotheism results in a very focused society, with absolute values and unquestioning support – until a flaw appears, opposition appears, and war breaks out. Monotheism is inherently hostile to democracy and free choice. It is easier to manage a theocracy for a population that is ethnically and culturally homogenous. The wider it grows, the more allowances have to be made, and the faster the monotheism erodes. The most effective monotheisms are cults operating in isolated compounds. Polytheism allows the possibility of behaving in different ways, each way being appropriate for a different god. Those who want to worship Venus are not forced to live by the standards of those who worship Mars. --- credit to robinhl.com for the info ((:

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The response is that anthropologists take an etic approach.

Explanation:

One set of concepts that is important in cultural analysis in anthropology is the idea of emic and etic. Emic refers to the close cultural understandings and fine detail you get from gaining an insider's view of culture, whereas etic refers to viewing a culture essentially as an outsider, from a perspective that can make larger comparisons of similarities and differences with other cultures. The notion is that you gain different insights depending on the perspective because from the etic view, for example, you are taking an outsider's view and you may see patterns and similitudes that somebody from within the culture can't see.

It is important to know that classical conditioning includes automatic or reflexive responses, and not intentional conduct.</span>
