The first answer is correct (A).

The Catholic leaders were followers of the doctrine of St. Thomas Aquinas, who defended the idea that salvation was not by faith but by good works. It was believed that forgiveness of sins and eternal salvation could be achieved through payment in cash, which would be used to finance Church expenses. This practice led to the processes of abuse and corruption that were denounced by Martin Luther, being one of the main reasons for the Protestant Reformation.

b. Abraham Lincoln

c. making abolition a war goal

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation contributed in no small part to the defeat of the Confederacy in the Civil War because it gave the Union the support of the Abolitionists and the Black Americans in both the North and the South.

At a time where the Union was experiencing losses in the battlefield and Abraham Lincoln was losing support, the Abolitionists rallied behind him and gave him the support needed to push on.

The war also ensured that the European nations who might have supported the Confederacy, steered clear of the conflict as they did not want to be seen as supporting slavery.

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The Glorious Revolution is considered by some as one of the most important events in the long evolution of powers possessed by the Parliament and the Crown of England. With the passage of the Bill of Rights, any possibility for a Catholic monarchy and any movement towards absolute monarchy in the British Isles were erradicated by limiting the powers of the monarch. The powers of the King were strongly restricted; He could no longer suspend laws, create taxes, or maintain a standing army during peacetime without Parliament's permission. Since 1689, England, and later the United Kingdom, has been governed under a system of parliamentary monarchy, and it has been uninterrupted. Since then, Parliament has gained more and more power, and the Crown has progressively lost it.
