describe two systems and/or protections the framers put in place to limit majority rule (constitution)
otez555 [7]

<em>The basic principle of democracy is majority rule</em>, but the Framers of the United States Constitution knew the majority rule could lead to tyranny because if that majority had the same ideals and interests the abuse of power would lead to tyranny and the oppression of the minority rights.

To limit the majority rule, the Founding Fathers established <em>the division of powers in the government, with a system of checks and balances </em>to ensure that no branch could abuse their power and prevent a majority rule from becoming a tyranny.

The framers created three separate branches that depend on each other. The legislative branch is divided by two cameras, the Senate and the House of Representatives and is in charge of creating laws. The judicial branch studies that law and decides if it is Constitutional and the Executive branch can veto the law. <em>This checks and balances system was created to ensure that no branch could abuse their power and prevent a majority rule from becoming a tyranny</em>.

Another protection the Framers added to limit majority rule dangers in the Constitution was the Bill of Rights written by James Madison. <em>The first 10 Articles of the United States Constitution protect the minority rights and liberties</em> so the actions and laws of the government (majority rule) have to respect those rights and liberties and act according the interests of the entire nation.

zhenek [66]

Answer:   People have no control over whether they go to heaven or hell.

Explanation:   Puritanism was created at the end of the 16th century and in the 17th century by the English Protestants during Queen Elizabeth I. Namely, they believed that the church reform was not complete in terms of church practice. Their beliefs and principles were based on simplified and regulated church laws and forms of worship. They were strict in terms of morality, advocated the censoring of moral beliefs, they were called upon to reform the Anglican church, and that by their moral examples to challenge  those who remained in the English, to change their sinful ways and patterns. They believed that God created with them a sort of agreement, as with their chosen people, and that they lived in harmony with the scriptures and the Bible. As such, they believed that they should give an example to others, with their strict moral laws, simple life and simple doctrines of worship, thus encouraging others to be saved because people are basically sinful beings.
