1.

Among the Scientific Revolutions mentioned,which event or circumstances do you consider to be the
most significant? Why?

Answer:The event I consider to be the most important of the Scientific Revolution is the invention of the
printing press.This is because the printing press led tomass records of information on papers.It also
helps indistributing information easily around the world.It helps the development of education and
improves science and technology.

2.How was the Scientific Revolution a threat to religious authorities?

The Scientific Revolution was a threat to traditional beliefs and catholic church because it challenged
traditional beliefs,people could discover the truth for themselves.It started to prove through different
discoveries that many of the powers in our Universe are not" God"and they have perfectly logical
explanations.

3.Imagine you are Galileo Galilei, would you deny what you believed to be true?

Explain: •No. Galileo was a man who seeked for the truth, and when one discovers the truth, why would
one need to deny it? Instead of denying the truth, and accepting lies, I would rather do everything in my
power to combat the oppressor who wish to bury the truth, and do my best to bury the lie whilst
upholding the truth. By allowing people of power to hide something important, the wolrd itself will not
progress, and other people will be affected as a repercussion of this action. In the end,the people who
hiditin the first place might be the last to suffer, but they will end up receiving the harshest punishment
when the time comes.
