KiRa [710]3 years ago

Within the Article VI, Section 3 of the United States Constitution, we can find a clause which is called as the “No Religious Test Clause”. By simple terms, this clause means that no federal office holder or employee can be mandated to stick on to or believe any particular religion or doctrine as a requirement to holding a federal office or a federal government job.

However there are eight states which do required officeholders to adhere even with the passage of this constitution. These states are Texas, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Tennessee. This is because these e<span>ight states include language in their constitutions which requires state officeholders to believe in a particular religion or specifically protecting those who do. Additionally, some of these states have the words “so help me God” in the oath of office.</span>

Given the above situation,is the problem of poverty going to be effectively resolved​
sattari [20]

Maintaining economic growth, increasing employment opportunities, maintaining a minimum wage rate, and reintroducing progressive taxes are some of the policies to solve poverty.

Promoting economic growth will result in increased total income and employment, as well as a more equitable distribution of wealth and resources in society and help to solve poverty.  Unemployment is a major contributor to poverty, causing more people to rely on government assistance. Poverty and unemployment are frequently geographical issues that affect specific economically depressed areas of a country. Government policies can help with this. Raising the national minimum wage is another effective way to combat poverty.

What were the many things that scout learned about injustice during her day as a spectator in court?
nataly862011 [7]
In To Kill a Mockingbird in chapter 23, there are a couple of cases of minutes when Scout and Jem discover that the grown-up world has more than its offer of treacheries. One illustration is when Aunt Alexandra calls Walter Cunningham "waste." And Scout is subjected to this dogmatism after Calpurnia had advised her to treat everybody similarly. This is plainly an illustration where Calpurnia is appeared to be more liberal.
