What evidence do we have that religion was an important part of early government?

kondaur [170]

Answer:I’d say A

Explanation:

In response to widespread sentiment that to survive the United States needed a stronger federal government, a convention met in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787 and on September 17 adopted the Constitution of the United States. Aside from Article VI, which stated that "no religious Test shall ever be required as Qualification" for federal office holders, the Constitution said little about religion. Its reserve troubled two groups of Americans--those who wanted the new instrument of government to give faith a larger role and those who feared that it would do so. This latter group, worried that the Constitution did not prohibit the kind of state-supported religion that had flourished in some colonies, exerted pressure on the members of the First Federal Congress. In September 1789 the Congress adopted the First Amendment to the Constitution, which, when ratified by the required number of states in December 1791, forbade Congress to make any law "respecting an establishment of religion."The first two Presidents of the United States were patrons of religion--George Washington was an Episcopal vestryman, and John Adams described himself as "a church going animal." Both offered strong rhetorical support for religion. In his Farewell Address of September 1796, Washington called religion, as the source of morality, "a necessary spring of popular government," while Adams claimed that statesmen "may plan and speculate for Liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone, which can establish the Principles upon which Freedom can securely stand." Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, the third and fourth Presidents, are generally considered less hospitable to religion than their predecessors, but evidence presented in this section shows that, while in office, both offered religion powerful symbolic support.

What was the reflection on the cultural reflections

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Cultural self-reflection is a way of understanding yourself or institution by exploring how the culture you live in shapes who you are.

1. The philosophical definitions and concept of Culture

In this meaning, culture is the way of life of a people. It includes the sum total of their mannerisms, beliefs, music, clothing, religions, language, behavioural patterns, food, housing, agricultural methods including their traditional behavior in a broad sense, including their ideas, arts and artefacts. It is the social heritage which an individual acquires from his or her group and which heritage classifies a people as belonging to a group.

Since culture is a way of life, the form in which culture is expressed, its symbols are the objectivities of the life of a people. Culture is distinct from society. It is society’s way of life. Hence society can remain when its culture has changed. culture is specifically human. It is learned and not instinctive. It varies from group to group and from one priod of time to another within a single group. Customs, beliefs, social structures and institutions can change.

2. Culture and Development

Culture change is a principle of cultural development. For culture, the law also holds that “unless a grain of seed dies, itself remains alone, but if it dies, it generates new life” (Wisdom words of Jesus Christ in the Bible).

Culture is a project and as such is not merely what it actually is, a people’s way of life, but also what it can become, the level it can attain, its potentialities yet to be developed.

It is in the light of such cultural development that cultural change is understandable and desirable. If it were so understood, there would be less lamentation and wailing as “things fall apart”, since this can be prelude to a stronger and higher synthesis.

<em>These reflections correspond to the philosophical consequences of cultural debates, their denial, acceptance or adherence. It is therefore important for humanity in international dialogue and debates to engage on a dialogue around culture for </em><em>CULTURE MATTERS.</em>

which of the following was the main reason that Constantinople was a good location for the capital of the Byzantine Empire

Lelu [443]

I believe the answer is: It was located on peninsula between Europe and Asia and lied on the cross of trade routes

This location gave constantinople a strategic location to control the trades between European traders and Asian traders. They could obtain a lot of profit by either taxing the trades that pass through their territory, or monopolizing a certain type of product themselves.
