New Ideas Threaten the Established PowersNew ideas are what make a society grow economically, politically and socially, but there are usually two sides to opinion on whether they should be taken into account. The two sides are: new ideas are great and new ideas are a threat. However, innovations are new ideas that always threaten and challenge societies, which explains why societies throughout history have been reluctant to change the way they live. Some major innovations, such as religious values, publications, and social interactions, threaten the world's established powers. The spread or encouragement of religions in other countries has been as much a threat to history as it has been to the present. The Qing dynasty is a great example because the Jesuits spread Christianity from Europe to Asia. However, Christianity was not a threat at first and was surprisingly well received until the pope in Europe sided with critics, Franciscans and Dominicans, and ordered Jesuit missionaries to stop promoting ancestor veneration and services in Chinese (Bently 585). Honestly, if a person wants to spread a religion to new parts of the world, they certainly shouldn't take away the values ​​of the new society to gain converts. In response, ruler Kangxi banned the preaching of Christianity in China because it would alter and challenge cultural values ​​within government and society. In summary, it was not necessarily the religion itself in the beginning, it was the change in values ​​and teachings that made Christianity a threat to the Qing dynasty and Kangxi itself later. Additionally, most people were reluctant to go into hiding anyway, fearing that their established powers, in this case religions such as Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism...... middle of paper .... .. betraying these situations is supported by the fact that 73% of teens are on a social network and 55% of teens have disclosed personal information to someone they don't know, including photos and physical descriptions ( Taylor). Parents see this as a threat because they cannot monitor what their children are doing 24/7, as 67% of teens know how to hide what they do online from their parents and only 34% know how to hide what they do online from their parents. of parents actually consult their social networks (Thomas). However, there is still a government threat when predators break the law relating to their relationship with a minor, as well as bullies who initiate acts of self-harm like suicide and harm their victims. In conclusion, new ideas have the ability to be perceived as good. ideas, but in reality, new ideas, for example religious values, publications and social interactions, threaten the established powers of the world.
