How was the Boston Massacre in 1770 an early version of “fake news”?

1 answer:

6 0

Answer:

The Boston Massacre is etched in our mindset because of an etching that stands as an indisputable example of 1770-style “fake news." The engraving by Paul Revere, which showed British soldiers lined up and firing indiscriminately at helpless colonists, ignored eyewitness reports that the soldiers were being threatened.

The correct answer is A. The Great Schism or the East-West Schism represented the final separation between the Eastern Christian churches (whose leader was Michael Cerularius, the patriarch of Constantinople) and the Western one whose leader was Leo IX. There were excommunications that ended in 1965, when Pope Paul VI and Athenagoras I revoked the excommunications decrees.

Which concept is an inherent element in the Muslim belief system?

Lilit [14]

I assume "Muslim belief system" refers to Islam, the religion, not any specific social construct. There are a lot of inherent elements. One is monotheism: there is only 1 god. Another element is the 5 Pillars of Islam, which give guidance on how to live one's life. Hope this helps.
