Why did Christianity appeal to many Romans? Give a detailed response

maksim [4K]

There are at least three reasons why historians might conclude that Christianity appealed more to many Romans than the old Roman religion did. We must remember that these are ideas that historians propose and not necessarily those that religious people would accept. Actual Romans might have said they preferred Christianity because God spoke to their hearts and told them it was true. Historians have to be more cynical and look for worldly causes for religious belief.

One reason that Romans might have liked Christianity is because its god cared about people. Roman religion was based on transactions. If people performed certain actions, the gods would perform other actions in return. It was like buying something on Amazon. By contrast, in Christianity, God loves all people regardless of what they do or believe. God hopes that people will do the right thing and will punish them if they do wrong, but he loves them as individuals even when they do bad things. Historians say that Romans might have liked this idea because it fed their emotional need to feel that they were valuable and worth caring about.

A second factor in Christianity’s popularity might have been its moral code. Roman religion really did not say much if anything about how people should act in their daily lives. The gods did not care how people acted towards one another. The Christian god, on the other hand, handed down a strict set of rules about how people were to behave. This might have made people like Christianity because it made them feel that they had instructions about how to live their lives.

Finally, historians emphasize Christianity’s inclusive nature. The Roman world was very unequal. There were a few elites, a group of people who were well-off, and many, many poor people and slaves. The Roman religion did not give any of the people of the lower classes a sense that they were valuable. This is where Christianity was so different. It taught that all people are equal in the eyes of God. Historians believe that this would have made many people like the idea of Christianity because it gave them hope that god cared about them regardless of their status and that they, the “meek” would one day inherit the earth.

Historians suggest all of these as reasons why people in Roman times might have been attracted to Christianity.

How does the study of motor behavior differ from the psychology of sport? 2. Explain the differences between motor learning and

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

1. The study of motor behavior involves the analysis of principles and laws of physics in human and animal biology to understand how living beings move.

The psychology of sports is responsible for analyzing the psychological factors that influence the athletic performance of athletes, and how these can improve their professional performance.

2. Motor learning refers to the process of acquisition of motor skills permanently through the process of practice and experience. For example, learn to ride a bicycle.

While motor control is the biological process that involves the coordination between the nervous system and the muscles to carry out a movement.

In order to carry out the motor learning, a motor control must be carried out beforehand.

3. It is important because motor learning is done through constant repetition, this drives to optimizing motor control. However, throughout life, motor control deteriorates due to the aging of the nervous system and the neuronal process, making it more difficult to learn new skills or perform skills already learned.

To avoid the loss of motor functions the exercise of the skills that already learned should be continued, driving to a healthier life.

4. I will choose tennis as a sport, high school education, and age; young people between 15 and 17 years old.

Tennis is a sport that requires the coordination of eye-hand, and hands-feet. It also requires muscle strength in the upper and lower extremities.

The age group should already have a certain level of motor learning that allows it to perform the required movements, these should be reinforced so that it would establish a daily hour of exercises to reinforce the motor control that is needed.

In addition to the exercise time, I would establish one more daily hour of specific exercises for proper movements of tennis.

Due to the age of the youth, they are more vulnerable to social or personal pressures, so my plan would involve weekly individual meetings so they can express how they feel about their performance and analyze individual changes to their work plans.

5. An example could be the practice of volleyball in a covered place with an artificial environment or practicing it outdoors. If the athlete gets used to the weather conditions he may experience when playing outdoors, for example; the sun, the heat and even the wind, when playing in a roofed environment where the weather conditions are not a problem, it will be easier to play. If it were to the contrary, and he got used to playing in a covered environment, it would be more difficult to play outside.

This is because motor learning is conditioned by the level of effort required to do it.

If I were a coach, I would initially start in an intermediate training environment and gradually increase the difficulty for the athletes to be prepared to play in any kind of environment.

I hope this information can help you.
