Answer:

Backfire effects

Explanation:

The "backfire effect" phrase was first coined by Brendan Nyhan and Jason Reifler in 2010. This phrase explains one's rejection of evidence that contradicts his belief which leads the person to believe even more strongly.

This is seen in the example above where Sharon strongly believes vaccines are poisonous even though Frank had presented evidence to show it is safe.

Why would Christianity be a cause for the fall of the Roman Empire? What does Christianity teach?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

One of the many factors that contributed to the fall of the Roman Empire was the rise of a new religion, Christianity. The Christian religion, which was monotheistic ran counter to the traditional Roman religion, which was polytheistic (many gods). Finally, by this time, Romans considered their emperor a god.

Christians believe in one God that created heaven, earth and the universe. The belief in one God originated with the Jewish religion. Christians believe Jesus is the “Messiah” or savior of the world. They also believe that he is the son of God.
