Want this question answered?
Biblical Canon was originally setup by the Catholic Church Later there were changes to the books and their order by the Christian Councils: the Council of Rome of 155 the Council of Rome of 193 the Council of Ephesus of 193 the Council of Carthage of 251 the Council of Iconium of 258[13] the Council of Antioch of 264 the Council of Arabia of 246-247 the Council of Elvira of 306 the Council of Carthage of 311 the Synod of Neo-Caesarea of c. 314 the Council of Ancyra of 314 the Council of Arles of 314 First Council of Nicaea (325) First Council of Constantinople (381) First Council of Ephesus (431) Council of Chalcedon (451) Second Council of Constantinople (553) Third Council of Constantinople (680-681) Second Council of Nicaea (787)
Council of Five Hundred ended in 1799.
Repeatedly.First Council of Nicaea (325)First Council of Constantinople (381)Council of Ephesus (431)Second Council of Ephesus (449)Council of Chalcedon (451) repudiatedSecond Council of Constantinople (553)Third Council of Constantinople (680-681)Quinisext Council, also called Council in Trullo [2] (692)Second Council of Nicaea (787)First Council of the Lateran (1123)Fourth Council of the Lateran (1215)Second Council of Lyon (1274)First Council of the Vatican (1870; officially, 1870-1960)At each of these ecumenical councils (not all of the councils, incidentally), there were definitive changes in the content and interpretation of scripture, including the addition of some books/passages and the removal of others and whether or not Jesus was THE son of God or just A son of God....Then of course there are parts that were dramatically altered WITHOUT a council for personal gain. One great example of this was Henry VIII, who, in a break from the Catholic Church, "tweaked" the contents of the Bible to allow himself to divorce his current wife.And then there were the couple hundred years of doctrinal changes occurring as a war between the pope in Spain and the Pope in Italy vied for control of Catholicsm (Italy won) in 1534-1549.So.. yeah, the Bible has definitely been changed.
Ask the london council :)
no
Athenian Democracy had the council of five hundred and American Democracy has a government.
The council of 500, the assembly, and the courts. They did not have the senate! Source was Wikipedia :)
It was not - it was direct democracy where the citizens met in fortnightly assembly and decided on issues which the council implemented. Modern democracy is representative democracy, where elected representatives carry out the functions of governance.
Pericles
Athens became a direct democracy where all Athenian citizens voted on laws and legislation and the Council carried out these decisions. Sparta was a limited democracy where two kings were responsible for war and religious leadership, and a 28-member council of elders which took significant issues to an assembly of citizens who could vote yes or no on the council's proposals on those issues.
It was direct democracy - the citizens met in fortnightly assembly and decided on issues, which decisions were implemented by the council. Today's democracies are representative democracies - citizens elect members of parliament to direct government.

Athens had a unique government, a direct democracy. This meant that every Athenian citizen voted on laws and legislation. Sparta was ruled by two kings and a 28 member council of elders.
He converted it into a radical democracy where the citizens in fortnightly assembly made the decisions and the Council of 500 implemented them. The juries in the law courts made the decisions on guilt and penalties - there were no judges or lawyers interfering.
During the radical democracy period, government was by the assembly of the adult male citizens, who directed on everything. The council carried out its decisions.
Athenian democracy was effected by the citizens (males 18 and over) meeting each fortnight in assembly and making decisions which the Council implemented between meetings. Australian democracy is representative democracy, where the citizens (males and females 18 and over) elect representatives to a parliament for three years. These representatives (members of parliament) do what they feel like, not necessarily according to what they promised when they were seeking election.
the Athenian assembly had to have 6000 people to meet and once they had that 6000 people they decided laws and other issues you may want to look up Athenian democracy on wikapediaThe citizens met fortnightly and determined on issues raised by the Council or themselves. The decisions of the Assembly were to be implemented by the Council between meetings, but the job was often allocated by the Assembly to the 10 generals whom the citizens had more faith in than the Councillors who were appointed by drawing their names out of a barrel.
