Answer:

B. no taxation without representation

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Tea Act of 1773 was an act passed by the British Parliament (I believe from the House of Lords) that fixed the purchase of tea (almost completely imported from Great Britain) to a small group of handpicked companies, mainly the British East India Company. It also attempted to undercut the tea smuggling trade.

This forced "American" (the US had not formed yet) colonists to buy heavily taxed tea (tax from the Townshend Act). This angered the colonists, used to having little tax or restriction of their trade. Since the decision was made in Britain, the colonists would've had no say in the passing of these laws, which makes the answer to this question choice B.

This caused what is now known as the Boston Tea Party to occur.

Out of all of the Enlightenment thinkers, who stood out the most and why? Do you agree with Hobbes' Enlightenment ideas? Support
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Thomas Hobbes, an English philosopher and scientist, was one of the key figures in the political debates of the Enlightenment period. Despite advocating the idea of absolutism of the sovereign, he developed some of the fundamentals of European liberal thought.

Hobbes was the first modern philosopher to articulate a detailed social contract theory that appeared in his 1651 work  Leviathan. In it, Hobbes set out his doctrine of the foundation of states and legitimate governments and creating an objective science of morality.

Hobbes argued that in order to avoid chaos, which he associated with the state of nature, people accede to a social contract and establish a civil society.

One of the most influential tensions in Hobbes’ argument is a relation between the absolute sovereign and the society. According to Hobbes, society is a population beneath a sovereign authority, to whom all individuals in that society cede some rights for the sake of protection. Any power exercised by this authority cannot be resisted because the protector’s sovereign power derives from individuals’ surrendering their own sovereign power for protection.

Hobbes also included a discussion of natural rights in his moral and political philosophy. While he recognized the inalienable rights of the human,  he argued that if humans wished to live peacefully, they had to give up most of their natural rights and create moral obligations, in order to establish political and civil society.

What were the faults of the Catholic Church that needed to be corrected?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:The Catholic Church has been subject to criticism throughout its history for its beliefs and practices. Criticisms of the Catholic Church's religious beliefs and practices have often led to breaks with other Christian groups, such as the schism with the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Protestant Reformation.

Roman Catholicism advocates things which are not found in scripture; manmade additions and therefore not of true biblical Christianity: holy water, baby sprinkling, confession via priest, priest celibacy, institutionally determined 'saints', and such.

Explanation: I Hope it helps :)
