Why Have War?

I think that we shouldn't have war at all. The reason i think that is because if we had more peace in this world everyone could get along way much better without having to argue. All the wars that occur wouldn't have happened. Also another reason i think we shouldn't have war is because then people wouldn't die just for dieing and they wouldn't make their families suffer. Ever since war started with Iraq, we have probably had more people die than accomplish what they want. All the Americans giving up their lives while their families are suffering. If we didn't have war and new how to communicate, like humans not animals, than everything would be better because everyone would have what they want. My point is that i prefer for us to have peace instead of war. Fighting gets you no where because when your done fighting some one else is going to want to start again and it never finishes and no one gets what they want.

How My Life Would Be Different

If the Industrial revolution never occurred we wouldn't have transportation. We wouldn't have had railroads, car, airplanes, or ships. We would have to walk or ride horses to wherever we would go. If we wanted to travel we wouldn't be able to go to the other side of the world. Also we wouldn't have machinery. We would still have to make clothes by hand and other materials by hand instead of machinery.
If the scientific revolution never occurred then we wouldn't know about science. Now a day i wouldn't know about the planets or newton's law.Also if the scientific revolution didn't occur then we wouldn't have so much technology like the telescope.
If the revolution never occurred then we wouldn't have religious freedom. We wouldn't have the freedom to choose who wants to be what. We would also have to follow only the catholics.
If the political revolution never occurred we wouldn't have laws. Also we wouldn't have the bill of rights. And we wouldn't have the freedom of speech.

How Did The Old World Change the New World

I THINK THAT THE OLD WORLD CHANGED THE NEW WORLD ALOT. THE REASON I THINK THAT IS BECAUSE IF THE OLD WORLD WOULDNT HAVE CAME TO THE NEW WORLD, WE WOULDNT HAVE SO MUCH NEW FOODS. ALSO WE WOULDNT HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED TO THE ANIMALS (LIVESTOCK). BUT AT THE SAME TIME I THINK IT WAS ALITTLE BAD THAT THEY CAME OVER HERE BECAUSE THEY BROUGHT ALOT OF DISEASES THAT KILLED THE NATIVES. THEY ALSO CAUSED ALOT OF RACISM INTHIS WORLD BECAUSE OF SO MUCH GREETYNESS. ANOTHER BAD PART ABOUT IT IS THAT THEY LET INSLAVEMENT INTO THE NEW WORLD. IN OTHER WORDS THE OLD WORLD DESTROY MANY CULTURE AND MADE NEW ONES.

Would You Go Explore a New Unknown World?

In 2020, me and some other astronaut were asked to go explore a new world in space. I think if i didn't have kids and wasn't married i would go. For one i would go because i love to explore new things. I would especially most definitely love to go and explore a new world. Maybe ill find a new place where human beings can live or already live. Another good thing about it is if we were to find some thing useful like gold or even oil, we would get payed alot of money. But there are some risk that we are taking. For example what if there is no signal out there or no sort of gravity to sustain the ship were in. We could die or get lost int he unknown. I think i would look at all the risks and talk to the group to see if they know all the latitudes and longitudes that we'd be in. But most likely like i said i probably would go just because i love to explore and i would most definitely love to explore a new unknown place out in space.

What modern invention has had as great of an effect on the spread of knowledge in our society as the printing press did on Renaissance society? Why?

The printing press was a big hit in the renaissance society because it helped them make books. The reason they came up with the printing press was because back then it would take a long time to make a book. If you wanted to write a book and sell it, it would probably take you a year to finish the whole thing because back then you had a pen from a chicken or bird and some ink. So they came up with the printing press so every time they would make a book all they had to do was take it to the printing press and make copies of it. Then they would send the books out to different place so people could buy them. Also when they came up with the printing press books got a lot cheaper for everyone to afford. So people started to read and got smarter.

Now a day, the Internet is what exist to us. We use the Internet for a lot of stuff. For example one thing we use the Internet for is to send out emails to people around the world so we can talk to them instantly instead of waiting a month for a letter to arrive. Another thing we use the Internet is for a lot of stuff. Another thing is that with the Internet we can ship orders out and receive. We can also use it to like buy airplane tickets. Back then you had to wait along time to get a letter, now with the Internet all you have to do is make an email account and it is sent electronically.

Live Everyday as if it was the last, Live it to the fullest.

Live Everyday as if it was the last, live it to the fullest.


I agree with the saying “Live everyday as if it were your last” because you never know when your last day might be. Now a day a lot of people are dying for many reasons. Some people are dying from health conditions and others for accidental reasons. Honestly I think that it is good to live your day nice, what if you walk out the door and a bus hits you? What if you had just got into an argument with your family and you couldn’t even say sorry? Honestly I think that it’s better to forgive and live your life, you don’t want to die thinking that you never even said bye. So as I was saying, I would agree on the saying “live everyday as if it were your last” because it is better to stay happy your last moments than to leave something wrong in the world.

Why Do We Believe That Religions Exist?

Religion is something that people believe in. It is like a special ceremony each person has. Some ceremonies like Christianity usually pray to one God and worship him. They believe that Jesus of Nazareth is the son of God. Other ceremonies like the Muslims perform Salat, their way of praying. In this ritual they get on their knees and they worship Allah, their God. They perform Salat five times a day. There are many different types of religion. It depends on the person which one they choose to follow. Usually it depends where you grew up and who your tutors were. I think religion exists because of the Ancient civilizations. I think that the rulers started it. You know how the rulers use to say that God gave them their powers? Well I think that the people used that as an advantage. They probably were thinking "well if he can get the powers then why not us?" And so different people made up their own stories, and it depended on the other people who followed who. So that is why many people believe in many Gods because maybe after that guy died they would choose someone else in their place and worship them and also the one before. They probably believed in afterlife so they probably thought they should still keep worshiping the God before. That is why religions exist in so many different ways.
