History

Answer:

The Roman Catholic Church

Explanation:

Before Copernicus's Heliocentric Theory, The Catholic Church believed in Greek philosopher Aristotle's Geocentric Theory, where the Earth was the center of the universe.  He believed- and I kid you not, that everything moving in the sky was propelled by the world-soul, or soul of the planet, and that their orbits were explained by huge, perfect, chrystalline spheres that contained the celestial bodies and surrounded Earth like a Russian nesting doll.  The Catholic Church adopted this theory and sprinkled Jesus on top.

Copernicus (and after him, Galileo) contributed to the disproving of these literally ancient notions.

ser-zykov [4K]

<u>Answer:</u>

An effect of Great Society programs on Native Americans was that President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Indian Civil Rights Act in 1968.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The then President focussed on helping the Native American Tribes and considered that Indians were one of the vulnerable groups that needed help. This act granted Indians in America equal protection of the law. He addressed the National Congress of American Indians in January, 1964. So, Indian tribes were part of his “war on Poverty” program. The "war on Poverty" was part of Johnson's plan to create a prosperous nation, a place where the significance of the existence of man corresponds to the masterpieces of the effort of man.
