Most Americans say that religion plays a "very important" role in their lives, a unique proportion among developed countries. [2] Most Americans (73%) identify themselves as Christians and about 20% they don't identify with any religion. [3] According to the American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS), in 2008, 76% of Americans identified themselves as Christians, with 51% attending different types of Protestant churches, and 25% professing to be Catholics. [4] [5] The same survey says that about 4% of the population professes other religions (including, among others, Judaism, Buddhism, Islam, and Hinduism) , that 15% of the adult population had no religion, and that another 5.2% did not know or refused to answer. [4] According to a 2012 survey, 36% of Americans say they go to The church at least once a week.

According to a study by the American Association of Statistics of Religious Bodies of 2012, it showed that while in effect 70% of Americans consider themselves Christians, the second most practiced religion varies by state. [7] Islam is the second largest religion in 20 states, mainly the southern and central states, Judaism is in 15 states, mostly those of the Atlantic coast, Buddhism is the second largest religious community in 13 states; the Pacific coast states plus Hawaii and Alaska. Of these, Hawaii is the one with the highest percentage of Buddhists being close to 9%. [8] Hinduism on the other hand is the second religion in Arizona and Delaware and Baha'is is the second most important religious creed in South Carolina.

Explain how the policies of charles townshend and of lord north differed.
pav-90 [236]

this is the answer 1. Sputnik 1 was the first Soviet man-made satellite to orbit the Earth. Sputnik was the first major event that would set off what we know today as the Space Race. It remain in low earth orbit, but it was the first successful launch and provided some feedback to various space agencies. 2. The U.S. supported the democratic South Korea against a Communist backed North Korea. While they did attempt to take the whole peninsula, when things drew more towards a draw, the US opted to maintain a defensive position and keep the North where it was. 3. The GI Bill led to a large housing boom and the creation of the first suburban housing developments. It started the first "cookie cutter" form of the suburbs that are so common place today. 4. American response to the launch of Sputnik was the fear that we were some how inferior to the Soviets. This led to a mass push of science, technology, and missiles education in public schools. 5. A politician accused of "McCarthyism" would make sweeping accusations with little to no evidence. They would hope that the large accusations and scene around being accused would be enough to cause the opposition to fold. 6. Segregation undercut the US moral high ground during the Cold War. How could the US claim the Soviets were not morally better and spout about how wrong it was to oppress people when the US was holding back and oppressing people themselves. 7. The Truman doctrine was a shift from the isolationist policy to stay out of others affairs. Truman spoke to Congress how it should be their duty to protect free people of the world from Communism and the hostile threat that it imposed. 8. Most Southern schools refused to integrate until a court order in 1977. Some places brought out the National Guard, most notably Little Rock, Arkansas. Many simply refused to go along with order. 9. The Marshall Plan was designed to contain Communism by giving money to Western European countries after World War II. This would better help them to recover and stave off the Communist threat. 10. The US's containment policy was solely designed to contain the Communist threat by increasing their presence around the world and supporting democracies, both militarily and economically

In what way did Christopher Columbus fail to meet his objective concerning his voyage in 1492?
Gennadij [26K]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>C. His original objective in his 1492 voyage was to find a westerly route to the Orient. He never reached the Orient. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

"Christopher Columbus" was an Italian explorer and a navigator. His voyage in 1492 was an endeavor to reach the Orient using the shortest path.

Columbus failed to reach the Orient and reached Indies, partly due to some error and partly due to the thought process. This route was shorter than the original route by approximately 7000 miles.

Columbus and his cruise had landed on islands surrounding Asia uncertain of the region where they landed. It is said that they stepped on the Watling Island.
