Although, traditionally known as the study…
1. To think like a sociologist and “make the familiar strange,” a person must reconsider their assumptions and beliefs on a certain matters may be wrong, and that they may have taken the simple acts of mundane life for granted. To understand the complex world around, a person must consider these factors and apply them to their thinking and decision making processes. In other words, in order for a person to live a fulfilling life—they must question everything. Furthermore, a sociologist…
Scientist have transformed history with new discoveries. Phenomenal events that change the direction of science. Many scientific theories have caused conflict with the religious beliefs and values of some people. Galileo Galilei’s interest in optics and astronomy drove him to innovative discoveries, His confirmation of Copernicus theory of a heliocentric solar system, caused a clash between faith and science. This refuted Aristotle’s theory that the heavens were perfect and unchanging. The…

creationism nor evolution should be taught as factual science and should not be indoctrinated into students, but can be taught as a theory and philosophy that should be viewed with scrutiny. Teaching evolution or creationism as fact imposes specific beliefs onto an individual, only teaching them what to think, not how. According to the Discovery Institute, evolution should not be taught as fact, but as a theory open to judgement. Creationism is not science, as it deals with unexplainable…
with learning new point of views from others. Though it’s a set of values and beliefs from other people it wasn’t proven because many people had their own beliefs and interpretation. When it came to the science part of it which came around in the 17th centuries it gave a new look on religion and science which lead to reasons of truth.

various fields. From discovering calculus, inventing the reflecting telescope, coining the three laws of motion, and much more. Along with publishing ‘Principia’, his later life was filled with many extraordinary advancements to many diverse fields of science. Time, however caught up to Newton on March 31, 1727. After 84 years of life, the majority of that time dedicated to his craft, Newton left a mark on the world that is remembered to this day. Overall, Isaac Newton is easily one of the most…
• I could just as easily have said, "a subject I had some knowledge in", or, "a subject I had some knowledge of". I suppose the main thing I've noticed is, thinking whether you are talking in the present or the past tense, for example as you have said, "on the final of the sentences", we would tend to say, "on the end of sentences", or, "on the end of the sentence". So we don't just make plural by putting an 's' on the end of the word, we also add a 'the' in front of the singular. You are making…
father, Phidias, was an astronomer. The fact that his father was an astronomer made him motivated to do all the inventions he did. He was really close to King Hieron and his son, Gelon. He worked for them, when he lived in Alexandria. He invented the sciences of mechanics and hydrostatics, the center of gravity, calculated pi to the most precise value known, produced formulas to calculate the areas of regular shapes, and the Archimedes screw. Only mentioning some, he got a lot more of inventions…
