Answer:

No, because evidence of the beliefs or opinions of a witness on matters of religion is not admissible to impair credibility.

Explanation:

In this context, credibility is only attained by an oath sworn with lawfully certified objects or items representing the religious beliefs of the state and not necessarily the genuine or validity of the witness declaration with such religious object to swore against the declaration of truth in the court of law.

earnstyle [38]

There are two neap tides per month because:

The moon and sun are at a 90-degree angle to Earth twice a month.

Neap tides are also known as moderate tides. The lunar tide is partially cancelled when the moon and the sun are at a 90-degree angle to Earth, or being at right angles. This event happens twice a month thus creating neap tides twice a month also.

King wrote “Letter from Birmingham Jail” in response to what?
andrezito [222]
The Letter from Birmingham Jail, also known as the Letter from Birmingham City Jail and The Negro Is Your Brother, is an open letter written on April 16, 1963, by Martin Luther King Jr. The letter defends the strategy of nonviolent resistance to racism. It says that people have a moral responsibility to break unjust laws and to take direct action rather than waiting potentially forever for justice to come through the courts. Responding to being referred to as an "outsider," King writes, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere".
