The south of Italy the kingdom of two Sicilies was ruled by the Spanish bourbon family. but between 1815 and 1848, the italians hated the idea of working for foreign rulers.

Scientific Revolution: The Scientific Method

The Scientific Revolution is base on the Scientific Method.People back then got there ideas from the ancient Greeks and the Roman or they got it from the bible.People believe that Greeks scientist had done such a good job that they still use their information of there science some people didn't believe in scientist so they use the bible of there scientific question.People know believe that the sun is in the center of the universe and every thing revolved around it we know that now because of the scientific method but back then around the 1500 they believe that the earth was in the center of the universe and every thing revolved around the earth which is not true because of the scientific method people started experimenting a guy named Aristotle believe that if u drop a baseball and a bowling out the window that the bowling ball will reach the ground first because it is heaver but a guy called Galileo tested his theory they say that he went to the leaning tower in Pisa and drop stones of different weight out the window he proved Aristotle theory wrong he said if drop items of different wights out the window they both reach down at the same speed.The Scientific method showed people to experiment and to make sure that there answer are correct not to prove a theory and not to back it up with information.Isaac Newton was another famous scientist that also prove Aristotle theory wrong he explain gravity and the law of physics.Isaac proved Aristotle about what he said about how we had one set of physical law governed and another governed the rest of the universe.Newton argued with him say that he is wrong that there was a universe law of gravity that applied to the earth and the heavens.

evolution vs creation

Evolution is base on Darwin's Theory of Evolution is base on science which he believes that all life comes from a common ancestor.He believe that humans came from primates and they mutated which we also called (natural selection).Scientist believe that over time these mutations are pass on to the next generation and they evolve.Natural selection acts by taking advantage of slight successive variations.Some people believe that Darwin's theory of evolution is not true because to have an ancestor they have to have a creator. So people believes that god is the creator of everything and evolution does not exist. So here is information on creation.People who believe in creation are people who go to church such as Christians and people who follow there religions and stay to there believes. These people didn't like that the school was teaching about creation so they tried and succeed in banning the teaching evolution in united states public The only way to talk about evolution was called scientific creationism" using " flood geology" in science class of literal readings.Then that was change to creation science then they just stop teaching religion in public school science classes.People had this argument for thousands of years and both side are trying to find the truth between evolution and creation so right know every body is right because of what they believe no body is wrong until some body comes with all the evidence from the past to now to say that evolution is correct or that creation is correct.I am going to tell what i believe is true in this battle. I believe that god exist but i also question if his is real because there is no evidence to say he is real except the church but they also never seen him in his human form he says that every body is created in his form but people also say that we are from animal so i am in between both creation and evolution both so until the truth comes out i am staying with my parents which is with the church but i will always question is GOD REAL OR IS THIS ALL A LIE!
