A. The gods decided whether to destroy humans and the world.
I just learned this today, every 52 years when a specific group of stars is in the middle of the sky (called the pleiades) they douse their ceremonial fires that have been going for the last 52 years, and have a ceremony (including sacrifice) to light new ones, praying to their gods that they will decide to spare them. They do this because they have stories about a long time ago when the gods nearly wiped out the human race, which many people believe is a version of the Biblical flood.

Think about the Dred Scott ruling, the debate over slavery that led up to it, and the upcoming presidential election of 1860.

REY [17]

Answer:

The Dred Scott vs. Sandford case could effect the presidential campaign of 1860 because candidates would have to know address whether or not slavery would be allowed in Northern states. Since this case stated that slaves are property and can be brought into free territories, this greatly effects the Northern states who already outlawed slavery. Based on the Supreme Court ruling, the states would have to abide by this law. Now, presidential candidates must answer the question of whether or not they will allow slavery to exist in all states in the US.
