<u>Explanation in regard to your first question:</u>
The "separation of powers" principle was an idea embedded into the plans for American government by our founding fathers, based on their reading of Enlightenment political theory. The terminology "separation of powers" was introduced by Charles-Louis de Secondat, the Baron of Montesquieu. (Usually he's referred to as just "Montesquieu.") He wrote an important work of political theory called <em>The Spirit of the Laws</em>, published in 1748.
Within his treatment of how governments will function best, Montesquieu argued that executive, legislative, and judicial functions of government ought to be divided between parts of the government, so that no one person or division of the government can infringe on the overall rights of others in the government or of the members of the society overall. The framers of the United States Constitution embedded the separation of powers into the plan for US government.
As noted by <em>The History Channel, </em> "In addition to this separation of powers, the framers built a system of checks and balances designed to guard against tyranny by ensuring that no branch would grab too much power." Some examples of the checks and balances used would be:
- Congress (the Legislative Branch) controls the government's budget, so the Executive Branch needs Congress's support to fund any of its desired initiatives.
- The President nominates federal officials, but those nominations must be confirmed by the Senate.
- The President has the ability to veto laws passed by Congress, requiring a two-thirds majority to override his veto.
- The Supreme Court and other federal courts (the Judicial Branch of government) can rule that laws passed by Congress or executive orders by the President are unconstitutional, blocking their implementation.
The Puritans believed that God had chosen certain people to go to heaven or hell. This is known as predestination.
The Puritans were deeply religious people who fled from England to The New World (America) to escape religious persecution from The Church of England. They were Protestant and Calvinist and had very strict doctrines.
Martin Luther gained religious enlightenment through his studies and believed that the church was getting in the way of peoples relationship with god and believed it was not for the church to tax people in return for their sins being forgiven he wrote the 95 Theses to complain about the wrong things the church was doing and nailed it to church doors in Germany he was part of the reformation which is one thing that lead to the enlightenment by weakening the churches power
