Answer: War of 1812
Explanation:
Polytheism (from Greek πολυθεϊσμός, polytheismos) is the worship of or belief in multiple deities, which are usually assembled into a pantheon of gods and goddesses, along with their own religions and rituals. In most religions which accept polytheism, the different gods and goddesses are representations of forces of nature or ancestral principles, and can be viewed either as autonomous or as aspects or emanations of a creator deity or transcendental absolute principle (monistic theologies), which manifests immanently in nature (panentheistic and pantheistic theologies).[1] Most of the polytheistic deities of ancient religions, with the notable exceptions of the Ancient Egyptian[2] and Hindu deities, were conceived as having physical bodies.
Polytheism is a type of theism. Within theism, it contrasts with monotheism, the belief in a singular God, in most cases transcendent. Polytheists do not always worship all the gods equally, but they can be henotheists, specializing in the worship of one particular deity. Other polytheists can be kathenotheists, worshiping different deities at different times.
Polytheism was the typical form of religion during the Bronze Age and Iron Age up to the Axial Age and the development of Abrahamic religions, the latter of which enforced strict monotheism. It is well documented in historical religions of Classical antiquity, especially ancient Greek religion and ancient Roman religion, and after the decline of Greco-Roman polytheism in tribal religions such as Germanic paganism or Slavic paganism.
Important polytheistic religions practiced today include Chinese traditional religion, Hinduism, Japanese Shinto, Santeria, and various neopagan faiths.
Betty Friedan's argument in <em>The feminine mystique</em> (1963) is made from the point of view of psychology and sociology through the analysis of surveys and interviews with women. Friedan was trying to explain why the surveys showed women were unhappy in their domestic lives.
The author found that women being educated to believe that domestic life should be their primary objective made women feel worthless.
This education for a domestic life happened through family, school, college, and media. There weren't many places women could get out of this destiny.
They felt worthless because a domestic life by itself doesn't provide a sense of realization and accomplishment. That's why, according to Friedan, it was so common to see women seeking fulfillment through community projects and the like.
<em>The feminine mystique</em> was a bestseller and one of the starters of the second-wave feminism in the 60s.
