It's because Spain colonized the Philippines for 333 years (1565-1898).

There are 3 reasons/motivations for colonization, it's for Gold, God, and Glory (3Gs). For those 333 years, Spain used the Philippines' resources to make trade not just for their own country but to others as well (Gold). Spain at that time is already a Catholic country, so they see it as their mission to convert others into Catholicism as well (God). It is important to take note that Philippines already has their own "religion" at that time, and Spain managed to convert them either way. So in 333 years, they were able to convert almost all Filipinos due to their power (Philippines is in no way as advanced as Spain that time (i.e., lack of weapons etc.)). By colonizing other countries, Spain earned fame and power (Glory).

Answer:

The Spanish controlled the Philippines for hundreds of years before losing it in the Spanish-American War. As was always the case, once Spain colonized or controlled a region, Catholic missionaries would arrive and evangelize the indigenous population. Thus, the Catholic Church was able to win many converts to Christianity. As a result, the dominant religion in the Philippines is Catholicism.

What was the founding father's intention surrounding how our branches of government might interact?
n200080 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

By creating three branches of government, the founding fathers wanted to make sure that no part of the government had too much authority. The three branches interact in a system of checks and balances, meaning they have the power to, in a way, supervise and restrict what is done by the others. This is what guarantees people's safety from excessive authority by any branch's member.

which perceptual system allows nancy to run without watching her feet and hit a baseball without focusing on her hands?
kogti [31]

The perceptual system that allows Nancy to run without looking at her feet and hit a baseball without focusing on her hands is the proprioception system.

This system is also known as kinesthesia, it allows the perception of our own movement without prior thought to do so.

That is, an individual has receptors in muscles, joints and skin that allow the body to perceive:

  • Movement
  • Action
  • Location

Therefore, priperception helps in body awareness of strength, posture, limb and trunk movement in relation to the environment and other parts of the body.

Why does dolphus raymond pretend to drink liquor?
Lynna [10]
Mr. Dolphus Raymond is known as the town drunk, because he always carries his drink in a brown paper bag, and tends to sway a bit in his walk. Mr. Raymond is also married to a black woman and has mixed children. When running from the courthouse, Dill and Scout run into Mr. Raymond and he offers Dill a sip of his drink. Scout is wary, but Mr. Raymond promises Dill it will make him feel better. Dill takes a sip and discovers Mr. Raymond is hiding a bottle of Coca-Cola in his infamous paper bag. Scout asks why he does such a thing, and Mr. Raymond explains he feels he has to give the population some reason for his odd behavior (being friendly toward black people). Mr. Raymond believes it's easier for people to handle strangeness when they have a reason to explain it. Thus, he pretends to be a drunkard.
