Does Bellarmine fit the description of a "babbler" Galileo wrote about in his letter to Pope Paul III?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Roberto Bellarmine was an Italian Cardinal of the Catholic Church. He was canonized a Saint in 1930.

He is known for his dispute with Galileo regarding the heliocentrism theory. After learning about Galileo's work in Carmelite father Paulo Antonio Foscarini's letter, Bellarmine told Foscarini to inform Galileo to limit himself to treat such theory as a hypothetical phenomenon rather than a physical reality, as it would be considered a "dangerous thing". As a result of this, Galileo wrote a letter to the Pope in which he declared Bellarmine a "babbler". This is debatable, as Galileo's theory was truly disruptive for the time.

Galileos stance ultimately made the Chruch ban his theory as it considered it as "heretical".

Which statement best describes the United States in the 1920s? It was a time of cultural changes. It was a time of economic hardships. It was a time of rising Communism. It was a time of cultural enrichment by immigrants. It was a time of economic recession.

Answers

I'm assuming that these are multiple choices
A) It was a time of cultural change
B) It was a time of economic hardships
C) It was a time of rising Communism
D) It was a time of cultural enrichment by immigrants
E) It was a time of economic recession

In this case it would either be (B) economic hardships because during this time people were cheating the system or (A) cultural change because jazz and swing were on the rise. It wouldn't be C, that comes a long time later, and D would also be false, because not a lot of immigrants were coming since the war had just ended. Also, the economic recession doesn't really hit hard until towards the end of the 20's..

Use the following excerpt from Boccaccio's The Decameron to answer the following question: "In the year of our Lord 1348, there happened at Florence, the finest city in all Italy a most terrible plague; which, whether owing to the influence of the planets, or that it was sent from God as a just punishment for our sins, had broken out some years before in the Levant (Middle East) and, after passing from place to place, and making incredible havoc all the way, had now reached the west…" Public Domain

According to Boccaccio, what did some people believe to be the cause of the plague?

A. Havoc
B. Sins
C. Climate change
D. Corruption

I think it is B.. Am I right?

Answers

Answer: B. Sins.

Explanation:

By describing the plague as a possible punishment sent by God, Boccaccio depicted an extended belief about the Black Death pandemic that infested Europe between 1346 and 1353. Having said that should be noted that Boccaccio was not actually religious, and this treatment may have been simply conventional, since he doesn´t insist on that theme, and the characters don´t seem interested in repenting or seeking forgiveness from God for their sins.
