The reading passage presents three competing theories that could explain how the settlements of New Mexico 's Chaco Canyon were used. The lecturer casts doubts on each of these theories in order to demonstrate that the arguments that support them are not convincing. From the reading passage, it is firstly stated that one possible use of these settlements was residential since it could host hundreds of people. The lecturer refutes that saying that if hundreds used to live there, more fire places should be found. According to the lecturer, the fires places that were found in these settlements are only enough for 10 people.

Mining can damage the environment and structures above ground. “The observable biological effects include: (1) depletion of numbers of sensitive, and diversity of all, free swimming and benthic (bottom dwelling) aquatic organisms;(2) loss of spawning gravel for fish; and (3) direct fish mortalities, particularly of natural game (salmon and trout) fish.” (Hester, Harrison, 1994). So much is destroyed by mining. Countless properties and families lose their homes and livelihoods to weakened soil and polluted environment.
“As long as there has been one true god, there has been killing in his name.” This statement is as true today as it was nearly a thousand years ago. For much of modern history, religion has been a driving force for thousands of people and has often been used as a form of justification for many actions, of which many have been misguided and atrocious. Perhaps one of the most well known of these events was the Crusades. The Crusades were a series of religious wars between Christians and Muslims, beginning in the year 1095 and lasting nearly 200 years, which were sanctioned by the Catholic Church with the primary aims of halting the expansion of Islam and reclaiming the Holy Land from Muslim rule.
