The Supreme Court said Mr. Reynolds could not break the law while practicing his religion.

Reynolds v. the United States was heard by the Supreme Court in 1878 in regard the Morrill Anti-Bigamy Act placed on the Utah Territory.

Reynolds argued that preventing him to marry more than one woman was a violation of his First Amendment rights to protection of religion. The Supreme Court concluded that he had the right to his belief but he could not go around the law to practice his faith. The law stated marriage was to be between two people only and therefore he could not be married to more than one woman.

What is your opinion of the Electoral College? In one or two paragraphs, explain why
konstantin123 [22]
The 2020 presidential election has been a disaster for people who think the Electoral College is still a good idea. Joe Biden’s clear victory has been followed by attempts by the incumbent president to induce Republican legislators and other elected Republican officials in five states he lost to ignore the certified vote counts in their states and substitute their partisan preferences for the voters’ decision. Now Congress will formally receive the electoral votes, after a series of attempts to subvert the democratic process, all made possible by the Electoral College.

Which of the following statements best explains the connection between the social status of women and a country's overall
jeyben [28]

"Women who enjoy a higher social status are usually less educated than women of a lower social status", the given statement best explains the connection between the social status of women and a country's overall  health.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

This statement best explains the relation between the social status of women and a country’s overall health because it explains the psychology of social class in any country.  Here such difference is observed because the growth and development of people is immensely dependent on the environment they survived.

Hunger of Education is may also depend on discomfort one faced, which predicts the deficiency carried by any community or society in any nation but not all face struggles, some may get opportunities because their ancestors worked hard.

So, if women who enjoy higher social status and vision for the development of individuality then maybe they resulted from less education than the women with lower social status who target development for society and nation. However, here statement allows only for discussion of a probability rather than a surety.
