Even though Dante's Inferno is based on Christian beliefs, why is the Inferno not necessarily a reflection on all Christianity?

Answer:

Because the ideas about hell described by Dante were based on the biblical text, which is the main source of Christian knowledge.

Explanation:

Dante was more inspired by Greco-Roman myths to describe hell in his narrative, than biblical texts. For this reason, many believe that "Dante's hell" is not necessarily a reflection on Christianity, but rather on the way the civilization of the Middle Ages thought about sin and the way this thought was influenced by the Greeks and Romans.

Biblical hell, for example, is not divided into circles, is not composed of flames and does not stay underground as Dante presents it, but the medieval imaginary and Greco-Roman legends approach hell in this way.

Answer:

Ensure that all air vents in the fireplace are open. Put the logs on the bottom of the fireplace. It is important that the wood is cleft and dry. The logs may be as thick as a fist or thicker.Add a layer of small logs of about 4 cm, and then one or two layers of kindling. Remember that air is important – approx. 1 cm between the pieces of wood is the perfect spacing.Put a couple of fire firelighters on top of the layer of kindling wood or use some newspaper. Be aware that newspaper produces unnecessary amounts of ashes and contributes to more soot.The last step is easy, just light it and close the door! Some chimneys take more time to create good fraught than others. If the fraught is insufficient, it might be an idea to open the door to the wood stove slightly until it is properly burning. If the house or cabin is "too" insulated, you might want to open a window. The same applies if the kitchen ventilator is on OR Tinder is light, dry material like dry moss, straw, tiny twigs, or newspaper that takes a spark. You can also use tinder that has sap in it, such as pieces of bark or pine cones.  Tinder catches fire first and burns very quickly. The key is to get enough tinder under the kindling so that the kindling begins to burn.

Excerpt from The Ultimate Fighting Championship Mary O'Dell 1 American interest in mixed martial arts is growing. Both male and
jeka57 [31]

B) It is unnecessary to oversee the athletes involved in mixed martial arts.

The viewpoint made in section one is that "State athletic commissions should strictly monitor and regulate the UFC." A rebuttal statement is one that goes against the viewpoint, so it needs to say something about how the UFC should not be monitored or regulated. Option A agrees with the viewpoint by saying overseeing athletes is necessary. Option B states the opposite by saying it is unnecessary to oversee athletes. Therefore, this is the correct answer. Option C says that athletes must self-regulate. While this puts the responsibility of regulating on the athletes, it does not take it away from the commissions. There is nothing here to suggest that the commissions would not regulate just because the athletes are. Option D has nothing to do with monitoring or regulating so it is a poor choice.
