Do extinction events such as the Cretaceous-Tertiary Mass Extinction event prove the Great Chain of Being wrong?

History
1 answer:

Answer:

Assuming your referring to the Christian "Great Chain of Being" then no.

Explanation:

(I will try to be as unbiased as possible)

Just to clarify for anyone who is uniformed on what exactly the Great Chain of Being is... it is a hierarchy chart which first surfaced in Medieval Europe which goes in order as... God, Angelic Beings, Humanity, Animals, Plants, Minerals.

In the Bible it is stated numerous times (I can find the specific page and such if needed) that "great beasts" roamed the earth... now there is no historical or scientific evidence this was referring directly to Dinosaurs but there is evidence that mass extinction events have occurred all throughout history and some are event mentioned in the bible itself (The Great Flood) It is thought that about 75% of all animal life on earth was wiped out (Also most believe that some form of Humanity was alive during the supposed asteroid strike) which means that if you are arguing that a mass extinction event would mean that Great Chain of Being or basically the existence of God then you would be wrong. (Again being unbiased here, there is also no evidence that there is a "God" or Gods)

I hope this could help, my apologies if it didn't. If you need any more elaboration I will gladly try my best to help out down in the comments

KIM [24]

Answer:

The Domino Theory was based on the idea that communism was a contagious force that spread from country to country. It was first advanced during Harry S. Truman's presidency, when WW2 ended, as the United States adopted the policy of Containment to restrict communist expansion and the sphere of influence held by the USSR.

Which of the following would support imperialism Media - capitalists - military personnel - or all above
Shtirlitz [24]
The people who would most likely support imperialism here would be capitalists and the media. Capitalists because they can produce much higher amounts of goods for a much lower price - exploiting the local population, and the media because they have stories to talk about which sell :)
