Answer:
The five world religions that have had profound impacts on culture and civilization are:
- Judaism: The location of origin of Judaism is ancient Israel.
- Christianity: Christianity originated from an area of Middle East that is presently known as Israel.
- Islam: Islam as a religion originated from Saudi Arabia, Mecca to be precised.
- Buddhism: Buddhism originated from India. It refers to the teaching of a man called Guattama Buddha. Guattama was initially a follower of Hindu faith.
- Hinduism: The origin of location of Hinduism is considered to be India and Nepal.
These five religions that are practiced in different part of the world had diffused from one corner of the world to another and have had great influence on the cultures and development of civilizations in different regions of the world.
The sun-centred model of the universe as proposed by Copernicus was not immediately accepted because it challenged the religious dogma that had held sway in the middle ages because this dogma required the earth to be at the center and man the creation of god as a unique event only on the earth so if helio centrism was to take hold it would relegate man and the earth to a lesser important aspect of the universe.
