Expences from the french-indian war. the british had a lot of dept and were using the americans to pay for it
I believe that the movement and faith you're referring to here is Christianity.
One of the major beliefs in Judaism is that Messiah will come: and the new movement believes that the Messiah has come, and that this is Jesus Christ.
The old belief was not to be reconciled with the new one (how can one wait for the Messiah if he has come already?) and the new movement had to split out: today it's the religion, Christianity.
The only amendment that has been repealed is prohibition.
It was repealed because it was hugely unpopular, totally ineffective and a large factor in increasing the power of the Mafia in the USA.
It was passed in the first place because of misguided nonsense paraded by well-meaning moralistic busybodies.
<span>Sort of like the war on the (rest of) drugs .... except many of those are still illegal and they were not part of a constitutional amendment.</span>
