Gradualism

However, the winning of Southern school is not an indication that Chan tradition values experience higher than lineage. Even in Southern school, the lineage is important. For example, Shenhui set up his own lineage hall in imitation of Puji. He worked to establish the transmission from Bodhiharma to Huineng and the sole lineal succession of Chan. Shenhui’s attack is not a rebellion toward the Chan tradition, but is only a method to legitimize his position in Chan tradition. Shenhui actually enhanced

The study of science is defined as that which deals with the workings of the physical world we are able to observe and measure. The origin of life, however, is a topic that science has long grappled with, despite the impossibility of observing or proving any origins theory in a strictly scientific manner. Today, the widely accepted theory of life’s beginning is the theory of Evolution by mutation and natural selection, or Neo-Darwinism. Most people in our modern society accept this theory at face

Charles Darwin was born on February 12 1809 and passed away at the age of 73 on April 19 1882. Darwin is most commonly known for his work on natural selection. Darwin's most famous theory is Natural selection it states that evolutionary change comes through the production of variation in each generation and differential survival of individuals with different combinations of these variable characters. Darwin had five theories he consider all this theory to be part of this grand idea. Darwin collected

In the end, of World War II, there was an era called the "liberation movement" that continued through the twentieth century. There were movements to defeat fascism and end colonial and racial domination in other places of the world. It took two decades, but most of Africa and Asia had been decolonized. And so in most cases liberation was peaceful, but other places had a struggle with it. With those struggles in showed that independence would bring a whole new set of challenges. New African states

Chapter 2: In chapter two of The Sixth Extinction the book explains how extinction is one of the first scientific concepts that children learn in school. Also, it talks about how children in the modern times know more about extinction than scientists did hundreds of years ago. Scientists first theorized the concept of extinction in the late 18th century. In this chapter the book also talked about how a naturalist named Georges Cuvier studied the fossils of an extinct animal called the American Mastodon

Mikayla Ferchaw Pd. 4/5 DBQ for Booker T. Washington vs. W.E.B. Du Bois The Strategies of Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois: Uncovered The time period of 1877 to 1915 was a period in history when the people of the Black race were being granted a free status, but equality, on the other hand, was not an option to some higher white officials. During this time period, many leaders started to fight for what they believed in by appealing to the white governing body for social equality. Two

descent, species multiply, gradualism, and natural selection itself. Evolution is when species come and go through time, while they exist they change. Common descent is organisms are descended from one, or several common ancestors and have diversified from this original stock. Species multiply is the diversification of life involving populations of one species diverging until they become two separate species; this has probably occurred billions of times on earth. Gradualism is evolutionary change occurring

selection in his controversial book On the Origin of Species. Darwinian evolution states that all species on earth gradually evolved from one common ancestor through natural selection. His theory can be broken down into six components: evolution, gradualism, common ancestry, speciation, natural selection, and nonselective mechanisms for evolutionary change. Evolution simply means that a “species undergoes genetic change over time.” Due to DNA mutations, these genetic changes in species form completely

Desert Storm utilized a more rapid attack using ballistic missiles. Crowell says, "…military force should be applied without restrictions, reflects an assumption that the unsatisfactory Vietnam experience might have been satisfactory without gradualism… the war could have been ended quicker, perhaps even with victory" (234). These two wars were so different that Crowell should not have compared them and is ineffective in proving his points regarding the two conflicts. Another main issue

Manacles- Metal band, chain, or shackle Languished- Grow weak Promissory- Implying a promise Gradualism- Gradual reform instead of sudden change Interposition- The act of interfering with someone or something Prodigious- Remarkably large Hamlet- Small settlement There is repetition in this speech to emphasize King’s point. Some of the phrases that were repeated were “We cannot be satisfied as long as”, “Some of you have”, “Go back to”, and finally “I have a dream”. He uses these phrases to build
