What inference can we make from Oedipus’s following line: “This polluting stain I will remove, not for some distant friend, but

for myself.” Oedipus’s motivation for finding Lauis’s murderer comes from a desire to fulfill Apollo’s prophecy. Oedipus’s motivation for finding Lauis’s murderer is self-serving. Oedipus wants to remove a stain from his shirt. Oedipus makes decisions based on the will of the gods.

The correct answer is Oedipus makes decisions based on the will of the gods.

Indeed, at this point in the plot, the Kingdom of Thebes has fallen to some kind of plague that pollutes the people and the fields, causing starvation. He has a prophet consult the Oracle of Apollo to see what can be done and the prophet comes back with an injunction, not a prophecy to find Laius’ killer.

Of course, Oedipus states that “finding Lauis’ murderer is self-serving” but in the sense that he is one with his people and that his people’s welfare is his own. The only unambiguous choice is that Oedipus makes decisions not based on scientific or criminal research but on his religious beliefs and these command that the will of the gods be obeyed at all times.

The first government dealt with foreign problems by ___________________.
trasher [3.6K]

D) Declaring that we were a neutral country that would not get involved in other countries' issues. Before and During the Napoleonic Wars, both France and Britain wanted the US to join their side and fight the other. However, the US chose to stay out of it, so both the French Navy and British Navy began capturing American sailors, called impressment, to fight in their navy, claiming that they were deserters. They also raided and stole ships and cargo from the American Navy vessels and merchant vessels. This started what is known as the XYZ Affair, which was a phony war against France, and the War of 1812 against Britain.

Who argued that the equal protection clause found in the fourteenth amendment already included women citizens
lakkis [162]

The Equal Protection Clause is part of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The clause, which took effect in 1868, provides that no state shall deny to any person within its jurisdiction "the equal protection of the laws".

A primary motivation for this clause was to validate the equality provisions contained in the Civil Rights Act of 1866, which guaranteed that all people would have rights equal to those of all citizens. As a whole, the Fourteenth Amendment marked a large shift in American constitutionalism, by applying substantially more constitutional restrictions against the states than had applied before the Civil War.

The meaning of the Equal Protection Clause has been the subject of much debate, and inspired the well-known phrase "Equal Justice Under Law". This clause was the basis for Brown v. Board of Education (1954), the Supreme Court decision that helped to dismantle racial segregation, and also the basis for many other decisions rejecting discrimination against people belonging to various groups.

While the Equal Protection Clause itself only applies to state and local governments, the Supreme Court held in Bolling v. Sharpe (1954) that the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment nonetheless imposes various equal protection requirements on the federal government.
