Chap. 16 Religion and Science (461-477)

     Chapter 16 begins with the spread of Christianity and other religions throughout Europe. As more and more people begin to convert to Christianity we see a major decrease in many religions already practiced in Europe but a huge increase in other new religions because of the amount of people beginning to arrive in Europe. What caught my attention was the impact Christianity not only  had on Europe as a country but every individual person as well. It became so popular the people were forced to chose a religion at times. There were not very many people that did not live without some sort of faith in religion. This ultimately gave many people the opportunity to have freedom freedom of speech and stand up for what they believed in.
