Answer:
This is part of what's wrong with you -- you do too much singing. Today it's time to stop singing and start swinging. You can't sing up on freedom, but you can swing up on some freedom.
Explanation:
Some scientists think the first migrants to the Americas came by boat.
Some scientists think the first migrants to the Americas came by crossing a land bridge.
Most scientists believe the first migrants came to North America from Asia.
Explanation:
In the past century there has been a consensus about the migration of people to the Americas. It was commonly accepted that the first humans in the Americas came at the end of the last Ice Age. The hypothesis says that they came by a land bridge that existed between North America and Eurasia, and that their origin was from what is now Siberia, or rather from central and eastern North Asia. This has been and still is the most accepted hypothesis.
In the past couple of decades though the view on this hypothesis started to change. Lot of new evidence emerged that suggest that this hypothesis is flawed so more and more scientist are not supporting it.
There has been new sites where remains of human activities have been found and they predate what was suggested by tens of thousands of years. The genetic studies are suggesting that there are groups of people that originated from Polynesia and from Northern Europe. In Mesoamerica and in the Amazon there are multiple groups of people that have Polynesia genes, while some Native Americans in the eastern part of North America have European genes. This means that people migrated not just from Asia, but also from Northern Europe (by a boat or through a land bridge), and by a boat though the Pacific Ocean.
When someone is described as a "martyr", all this means is that this person died for a cause they they believed in, and that their death inspired others to follow in the cause in question, often in the face of opposition.
<span>In writing his book, Livingstone’s primary aim was to direct public attention to central and southern Africa, which he presented optimistically as an “inviting field” for mission work and trade (Wisnicki 2009:257). It offered him the chance to advocate a combination of Christianity, commerce and civilisation and to encourage British intervention in the continent. Undoubtedly Livingstone’s attractive, almost “utopian” vision and his major literary success, contributed to his fame and his lasting reputation (Holmes 1993:351).</span>
A fire and brimstone preacher, Jonathan Edwards was a stalwart Puritan and much of his Calvinist background is apparent in the frightening imagery of his sermon, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." In fact, the image of the bottomless pit of hell whose fiery floods wax high enough to burn the gossamer thread that holds the unworthy souls over it evoked so much terror in the congregation of Edwards that women fainted and men became terrorized and trembled.
This sermon of Edwards is constructed around a passage from Deuteronomy in the Old Testament of the King James Version of the Bible: "Their foot shall slide in due time." Using the metaphor of a slippery slide, Edwards, at a revival where his famous sermon was given, points to the dangers of spiritual sliding. The yawning abyss waits for the sinners, whose wickedness makes them "heavy as lead," and only the "mere pleasure" of God keeps them from burning in the images of "fiery floods" and "fire of wrath." The image of a "bow" for God's wrath that can easily bend and send forth its arrow is an unnerving one, indeed, as the "slender thread" dangling near the "flames of divine wrath" which can singe it at any moment.
