Robespierre's and The Reign of Terror

The reign of terror was time were no one was safe. People who tried to revolt would get executed by getting there heads get cut off by a guillotine this was a very famous french killing device. One man named Max Robespierre he was a ruthless dictator he didn't want no one to take power. He was the one who decided to take out the queen Marie Antoinette. In front of everyone. Also king Louis the VI.

This was all started because people didn't want no one to over throw the government. Gangs were getting started because people had as much power as the anyone who use to have more power. To get executed it only took one accusation and you could go to the guillotine. This created controversy because you could friends with Max and go to guillotine for no reason. This made France a bad place to live so the people decided to over throw Max. They arrested him and then they executed him. This was the end of the reign of terror. This was a good time a new type of government was created and it was called the Directory controlled by five men. Out of this came one General Napoleon.

1. The french people were mad at the clurgy,nobles, and the king because the king and everyone else cheated on the frnch people and always voted them out when in politics.
2. A french person might be grumbling about how he might revolt against the king and everyone else who stood in there way.

John Locke and "The Enlightenment"

In the 2nd paragraph of the Decleration of Independence the laws that Jefferson is talking about how we chose a new leader. Also how there would be no dictator ever in the colines. The government or laws can not be changed. That if one govenment goes bad we could chose to abolish that government. Also that we have certain rights to control our counry. This is what Jefferson was talking about in the 2nd paragraph.
The government's ideas come from a man named Jhon Locke. He was a man who influenced modern Government that we see today. Jeferson took his ideas from him and created the decleration of independence. John Locke was the one who influenced him to wright the D.O.I. The government comes from the people. If ir screws up. It is our job to help it get fixed. We are the government not some famous King or Queen. Thats the way the goverment comes from and is controled.

Copernicus and the trial of Galileo

There are two theory's about the solar systems. They are the geocentric theory were people thought that the earth was the center of the universe.Heliocentrism is the second which people thought that the sun was the center of the universe. This word comes the Greek word Helio meaning that the Sun is in the center. The one that came first before the scientific revolution was geocentric. This came from a person named Copernicus who studied the earth but not to extent. He told that to Catholic Church and it seemed people believed it. Heliocentrism came second and after the scientific revolution.
A man named Galileo went on trial because he discovered that the earth revolves around the sun. When the Catholic Church found out they told him not to continue or support the theory. In a book he wrote it said he supported the theory. In so doing so the Church put him on trial. The Church be lived anything the bible said about how the earth is the center of the universe and Galileo be lived in facts. He was put on house arrest for the rest of his life. The trial seemed to be short something this big.

Scientific Revolution: The Scientific Method

The scientific method is way to determine whether something is true or not. People use this method to help understand there surroundings. There was a person named Galileo who disproved the theory that heavy objects fall at different speeds then a smaller objects. There are 5 steps to this method.
This method has been around for at least 500 years. Before that people would just go to the old Greeks info to get the answer. Aristotle was a famous scientist who thought that everything revolved around world. Then the Scientific method came into play and everything was dis proven until there were facts. An example is if i am trying to find is how big is my building if I were prove that it would take a long time because there would be allot of measuring. Down here is the method to the scientific method.
1. You find what your problem is.
2. You get your hypothesis
3. Use the hypothesis to make the procedure.
4. Test evreything out.
5. Keep trying to get it right so you dont have to do anything anymore.

Evolution v.s Creation

The Darwin's theory of Evolution is that we came from one little organism and grew from multiplying or breeding. He has a few theory's about evolution. The one I just wrote about at the top was the basic theory. The slowly but Surely theory is that he thinks that evolution took millions of years to create man. The last theory is the theory of crisis. Darwin thinks that if something happens like a line that breaks and instead of going straight it go's up or down. This seems to be Darwin's theory of evolution.
The theory of creation is about that God created man and everything just like that. That there was no evolution what so ever. The theory of Genesis talks about how the young Earth just came to be and everything around it. This created controversy when the United States in 1929 when some states passed a law that made some schools not teach the theory of evolution. In 1960 they took it out of the text books.
I think that the theory of Evolution is the best theory it has more proof. Look the earth evolved by creating the o-zone layer. Also little life forms were formed by cells that multiplied. which caused more to be created. The theory of creationism doesn't seem to be correct because there is not that much proof or way this could happen. something has to be there it grow.
