<u>Answer</u>:

  • Maintained that religion was useful to humankind but didn’t have to be true: Voltaire
  • Maintained that each person entered into society with an unspoken agreement to refrain from harming one another: Jean-Jacques Rousseau
  • Believed that people should exchange some of their individual freedoms for common security: Thomas Hobbes
  • Believed that natural law was given to humans by God: William Blackstone

<u>Explanation:</u>

Voltaire maintained that religion was useful to mankind as a way to implement social control (not always negative) and as a way to encourage the development of qualities in an individual. Whatever religion people have, it allows for more harmonious relationships.

Rousseau defended the idea of a social contract, which was an implicit agreement between people and the government. In this original agreement, people agreed to be amenable and to try to live in society as peaceful as possible.

Hobbes believed that the government's priority was to ensure the safety of each individual, and in order to do so, people needed to be willing to let go of some of their individual freedoms.

William Blackstone believed in natural law, which is a law that guides humans regardless of their cultural or social background. This law, according to Blackstone, was given to us by God.

Answer:

Honesty

Explanation:

Honesty is the act or quality of being honest and sincere with one's actions and words (statement). Thus, it's a quality that requires an individual to show sincerity, truthfulness and stating the facts as they are without mincing words and regardless of whose ox is gored.

This ultimately implies that, honesty refers to being truthful and stating the facts as they are in all circumstances.

For example, John lacks honesty because he's always fond of being economical with the truth and peddling fake news.

Identify how Robert E. Lee responded to the Battle of Vicksburg.
Stells [14]

Answer:

He would strike again into the North to force a Union retreat from Vicksburg to defend its home territory and

he sought to develop a military strategy that would persuade Copperhead Democrats to end the war.

Explanation:

Vicksburg was one of the Union’s most successful campaigns of the war. Although General Ulysses S. Grant’s first attempt to take the city failed in the winter of 1862-63, he renewed his efforts in the spring.

After defeating a Confederate force near Jackson, Grant turned back to Vicksburg. On May 16, he defeated a force under General John C. Pemberton (1814-81) at Champion Hill. Pemberton retreated back to Vicksburg, and Grant sealed the city by the end of May. In three weeks, Grant’s men marched 180 miles, won five battles and captured some 6,000 prisoners.
