The first one is 81 percent and the second one is 31 percent.
The correct answer is "False".
A denomination is a religious group which has different beliefs from other groups that share the same religion. However, it is recognized as an autonomous branch of the Christian Church. For example, Protestantism and Roman Catholicism are both denominations of the Christian Faith.
Although some states do recognize denominations as official state religions, this is not mandatory for others.
Answer: True
Explanation: The Supreme Court admitted that it is haphazard to treat similar things differently and that mandatory death penalty statutes eliminated this problem, but also reckless to treat two different things the same way. In essence, to impose the same penalty on all convicted murderers, even though all defendants
are different, is just as capricious as imposing a penalty randomly.
To relieve this problem, some sentencing guidelines became necessary. This gave rise to the guided discretion statutes that set standards for juries and judges to
use when deciding whether to impose the death penalty. The Court reasoned that, guided discretion statutes struck a reasonable balance between giving the jury some discretion and allowing it to consider the defendant's background and character and the circumstances surrounding the crime.
