In the United States, the president, a civilian, is commander-in-chief of the armed forces. This means that the president is __________.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Correct answer:  The president is not a member of the military.

Explanation:

A "civilian" means someone who is not a member of the military.  Some presidents have formerly served in the military, but as elected officials in the White House, they are serving as civilians in that office.

A prominent stand-off over the President's authority over the military occurred during the presidency of Dwight Eisenhower.  Eisenhower had been a military general himself (during World War II), but then was elected to serve as civilian commander in chief as President of the United States.  In 1950, when North Korean forces invaded South Korea,General Douglas MacArthur wanted to bomb the People's Republic of China and use Nationalist Chinese forces from Taiwan also in an attack on communist China.  President Eisenhower would not grant these requests to escalate the war, and MacArthur made his opposition to Truman's policies a public argument.  Eisenhower felt he had to relieve MacArthur of his command and maintain respect for civilian control of the military, with the President as Commander-in-Chief.

Why did the writing and ideas of Aristotle disturb some medieval Christian

Answers

Answer:    Because of Aristotle's system of reasoning as the opposite of medieval dogma.

Explanation:  Aristotle is one of the greatest and most important philosophers of ancient Greece. His significance is not reflected solely by his contribution to scientific disciplines such as mathematics, physics, logic, metaphysics, ethics, politics, but also by his influence during the revival of the Greek philosopher at the time of the Renaissance. At the time of the revival of humanism, naturalism, taken from ancient Greece, Aristotle's philosophy and logic was exactly the opposite from what was the dogmatic doctrine of medieval Christians. Aristotle as the first who developed a formalized system for reasoning and his teaching was an excellent basis for the development of the Renaissance, based on natural science, humanism and reasoning.

Lots of Aristotle's ideas went against the Christian faith.
