It is estimated that people spend 10-20% of their lives inside.
True or False .... I put False

Answers

I would say that this is definitely false:

People spent around 8 hours sleeping every day, that is one third of their day.
This means that they would also spend one third of their life sleeping.

Since sleeping is usually done indoors, this means that at least 30% or 40% of people's time is spent indoors - but potentially more.

Read the following quotation from Catholic bishop Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet at the court of Louis XIV. Rulers then act as the ministers of God and as his lieutenants on earth. It is through them that God exercises his empire. . . . Consequently, as we have seen, the royal throne is not the throne of a man, but the throne of God himself. Who would most likely have disagreed with the bishop’s point of view?a. a French aristocrat
b. a bishop who was not a member of the royal court
c. a member of the British Parliament
d. an absolute monarch from Spain or Russia

Answers

Answer: c. a member of the British Parliament

This quotation argues that the power of absolute monarchs is invested in them by God. Therefore, they have the "divine right" to rule.

The most likely individual to disagree with this statement would be a member of the British Parliament. If kings were indeed like God himself, there would be no need to control or restrict their operations. However, this is the fuction of Parliament. Moreover, Parliament is the way in which common people are represented in government, which would be discouraged if the King had been appointed by divine right.

On the other hand, French aristocrats, bishops, and absolute monarchs are more likely to believe in this position as they benefit from both the monarchy and the interconnection between politics and religion.
