<u>Adams think the Declaration is worth celebrating, in spite of the cost because:</u>
John Adams wished that the fourth of July will be celebrated with a lot of pomp and joy, topped with celebration and fireworks. He believed that this day will be celebrated because he called it as a “day of deliverances by solemn act of devotion to the God almighty”.
He called it a divine event which has to be celebrated with the utmost grandeur across the entire continent. The approval of the crown to grant independence to the thirteen colonies is something which has to be celebrated in the upcoming years.
The correct answer is A. The government was guided by religious principles.
Explanation:
The Massachusetts bay colony was one of the first colonies created by settlers in North America and was founded in the 17th century, during this century and subsequent centuries the colony developed with a population and government that were mainly Puritan. Indeed most of the population that migrated from England to Massachusets colony were Puritans and because of this in terms of government only those that followed this religion were elected, besides the policies of the colony were the most radical due to this, as other religions were not tolerated and later there were laws that regulated appropriate behaviors according to religion. Considering this, the reason the government in Massachusetts bay colony was the most radical was that the government was guided by religious principles.
So that one part of the gov. wouldn’t have all of the power.
