Uniformitarianism vs. Catastrophism Uniformitarianism and catastrophism are the two theories that are said to shape the Earth’s surface. Before James Hutton wrote his book about uniformitarianism, called Theory of the Earth, in 1788, nobody even considered that something other than catastrophism shaped the Earth’s surface. This was because they could see catastrophic change but they could not see gradual change. After Hutton published his book, people started to debate that the Earth was a lot older than they previously thought. Charles Lyell, a British geologist, reintroduced the idea of uniformitarianism when he published a series of books called Principles of Geology.
The Constitution is Not a Secular Document Gina Many historians today have claimed that the United States of America was not founded on Christian values. Instead they teach that America has and always will be a secular nation. To support this claim they name Founders such as James Madison, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson who, out of 250 Fathers, were the least religious. Looking at original historical documents points to a different theory. Noah Webster, the Schoolmaster of America, sets this tone when he states in his book History of the United States that, "...our citizens should early understand that the genuine source of correct republican principles is the Bible, particularly the New Testament, or the christian religion."
Do you agree with the view that Henry VIII’s foreign policy in the years 1514-1525 failed because he lacked the resources to fulfil his aims? The failure of Henrys foreign policy in the years 1514-1525 could be blamed on a number of different reasons, with the countries lack of resources certainly playing a large part as he was unable to fund battles with other countries. Other factors contributing to this failure however were the unreliability of his allies and his indecisiveness in regards to allying with other countries. Sources 4 and 6 agree with the statement that the foreign policy failed due to a lack of resources but sources 4 and 5 also give other reasons as to why it failed, such as the unreliability of his allies and great changes in power that he could not control. Henry’s foreign policy was a failure due to England’s lack of resources.

It was not the strength of the opposing forces, both liberal and conservative, but rather the stubbornness of Wilson that led to the defeat in the Treaty of Versailles.
