The correct answer to this open question is the following.

People who did not want to answer the questions from the Committee was indicted for contempt of Congress and were sent to prison. Some other people were put on a blacklist in the workplace and lost their jobs and found very difficult to find other company that hires them.

In at least 150 words, compare Thomas Jefferson's views on religion as put forth in the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom t
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Both in religion and in politics, Thomas Jefferson believed that all men are created equal. Therefore, each man and woman have the right to choose their beliefs and have their own opinions.

In January 1777, Thomas Jefferson drafted the Bill for Establishing Religious Freedom which established the right of every man and woman to their own religious beliefs and opinions. Nine years later, this bill became the Virginia Statue  for Religious Freedom.  This statute was eventually incorporated into the Constitution as the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights.

As regards the Declaration of Independence, Jefferson wrote a statement of the colonists' right to rebel against the British government and establish their own based on the premise that all men are cretaed equal. In consequence, they have the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. His ultimate goal was to express the unity of Americans against the tyranny of Britain.
