When Tituba was arrested a few days later, confessed she was a witch and stated there were other witches in Salem, the colonists panicked and began a massive witch hunt to find these other witches.

“Many historians believe that a number of individuals in the colony, particularly the Putnam family, quickly took advantage of this witch hunt and mass hysteria by accusing rival neighbors or other colonists that they disapproved of or wanted revenge against.

Puritans were very hostile towards colonists who didn’t follow the strict religious and societal rules in the colony. As a result, it is not surprising that many of the accused witches were outspoken women, Quakers, slaves, colonists with criminal backgrounds and/or prior witchcraft accusations or colonists who criticized the witch trials, according to the book The Societal History of Crime and Punishment in America:”

Which of the following statements BEST explain why organic farms are not more widespread? (3 points)
padilas [110]

The correct answer is - I, III, and IV.

There's multiple reasons why the organic production is pretty rare throughout the world, like the expensive production, specific tools, more effort, more losses of the products, not enough education etc.

The organic production is much harder than the conventional one, as everything has to be natural, without the usage of any chemicals for protection, and using specialized tools. Also, bug problem are the pests, as the plants can be properly protected so the losses are much bigger.

This type of products are also not in high demand, and the reason for that is their price. While there is a trend in the Western World for increased consumption of organic food, the reality is that most of the people can not afford it even in the highly developed countries, while the consumption in the less developed countries is almost non-existent.

The process of production of this type of food also requires education, as it is not very simple, nor is the same as the conventional production, and most of the people do not have that education.

In what ways and for what reasons did us foreign policy toward latin america change in the period 1945-1963
rusak2 [61]

After the Spanish–American War in 1898 the United States strengthened its power in the Caribbean by annexing Puerto Rico, declaring Cuba a virtual protectorate in the Platt Amendment (1901), and manipulating Colombia into granting independence to Panama (1904), which in turn invited the United States to build.

In the years after World War II, the United States was guided generally by containment — the policy of keeping communism from spreading beyond the countries already under its influence. The policy applied to a world divided by the Cold War, a struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union.

What would moses say to the question, why is this holy land an important site for your faith
Alexxx [7]
The Holy Land is important for Christianity, Islam, and Judaism because each religion has important historical events that took place in this land. The Holy Land is where the Jews believe the First and Second Temples were built, for Christianity the Holy Land is where Jesus was born, lived, and was crucified, and for Islam it is where Muhammad ascended into heaven and spoke to god. All of these events and many other make the Holy Land important to all three faiths
