Thomas Jefferson, when writing the Declaration of Independence of the US used a fundamental Judeo-Christian concept. At the Declaration, Jefferson states that: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness...".
The Judeo-Christian concept of God-given rights (for example: every man is created equal; rights over life and liberty...) is a fundamental concept used by Thomas Jefferson as the core of the Declaration of Independence.
The Zhou created the Mandate of Heaven. The idea that there could be only one ruler of China. :)
Construction of new homes fell is the statement that is not true of the U.S. economy in the late 1920s.
Women in the Islamic societies, compared with the women in the other contemporary societies, are much more restricted and oppressed. They have no equal rights with men, and are considered as second class citizens, must obey their husbands or another male figure, have to cover themselves so that they can not be seen by another man, are very often beaten up and that is not considered as violence but more like method for discipline, they are not allowed to make independent choices for themselves. All of this is the total opposite of what is happening in the other modern day societies where the women have the same (in some places even more) rights as men, and can organize their lives independently by their own interests.
