The correct option is "They argued for religious tolerance."

Denis Diderot was a decisive figure of the Enlightenment as a French writer, philosopher and encyclopedist. Recognized for his intellectual drive and erudition, for his critical spirit as well as his exceptional genius, he marked milestones in the history of each of the fields in which he participated: he laid the foundations of bourgeois drama in theater, he revolutionized the novel with Jacques fataliste o The religious and the dialogue with the paradox of the comedian, and, on the other hand, created criticism through its halls. Together with Jean-Baptiste, Rond d'Alembert encouraged, supervised the writing, edited and compiled one of the most important cultural works of the century: the Encyclopédie ou Dictionnaire raisonné des sciences, des arts et des métiers, a masterpiece composed of 72 000 articles, of which about 6000 were contributed by Diderot himself.

When JFK was president, the Democrats held a big majority in both the House and Senate. But he couldn't get Congress to approve his proposals to enlarge civil rights, supply federal aid for school construction, create a Department of Urban Affairs and Housing, or establish a program of subsidized medical care for the elderly. During JFK's last year, Congress passed 1/4 of his proposals. When Carter had a majority of Democrats, many of his most important proposals were defeated or greatly modified.

How did the Nazi party enforce the Law for the Prevention of Genetically Diseased Offspring?

12345 [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

Law for the Prevention of Genetically Diseased Offspring or "Sterilisation Law" was a statute in Nazi Germany enacted on July 14, 1933, which allowed the compulsory sterilisation of any citizen who in the opinion of a "Genetic Health Court" suffered from a list of alleged genetic disorders – many of which were not, in fact, genetic. The elaborate interpretive commentary on the law was written by three dominant figures in the racial hygiene movement: Ernst Rüdin, Arthur Gütt and the lawyer Falk Ruttke. The law itself was based on the American Model Eugenical Sterilization Law developed by Harry H. Laughlin.

Why was Louis XVI considered ineffectual ?

Alexandra [31]

Well, for one... Louis the XVI was considerd ineffectual because he was usually depicted as rather a weak sort of king. Not really able to wield the strong centralized state in which his ancestors had crafted.
 *And he was also seen as an honest man, who had good intensions, but who was most likely unfit for the strong task of reforming the monarchy; He basically wasnt the best man for the job... 
~Therefore, He was ineffectual, just like the question states...
