History
1 answer:
kondor19780726 [428]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

This allows the people of the United States of America to have guaranteed rights that can change when the people desire to.

Explanation:

The framers of the Constitution wrote the Bill of Rights (Amendments 1-10) to guarantee Americans' God-given rights. In the event that a government becomes tyrannical, it is the people's duty to amend the Constitution and retake control of the republic. In short, amendments guarantee our right to control our government.

What are the similarities and differences between the Stamp Act Congress document and the Declarations and Resolves of the First
Yakvenalex [24]

The Stamp Act Congress of 1765 and the First Continental Congress of 1774 were two assemblies of legislatures from the American colonies, assembled in response to taxes enacted by Great Britain. Yet while the Stamp Act Congress and the concomitant boycott of British goods positively forced Britain to repeal the Stamp Act, the First Continental Congress happened during a time of intensified tension between Britain and the colonies and in its place directly led to the American Revolution.

Compare and contrast Hatha yoga to how other religions approach the concept of prayer.
Pavlova-9 [17]
To some, yoga may just be an exercise regime that is extremely advantageous for your body, especially since it can increase flexibility, stretch muscles, and lower blood pressure. These movements and positions may be all what matters to a yogi. On the other hand, if a religious person in particular begins to practice secular yoga, this can definitely takeaway the essence of yoga to them. Yoga has many symbolic meanings and roots, and, regardless, this should be respected. On the other hand, there are many subsections of yoga that have been adopted by other faiths. For instance, The Los Angeles Times talk over the separation of yoga from Hinduism: “Christ is my guru. Yoga is a spiritual discipline much like prayer, meditation and fasting [and] no one religion can claim ownership.” Some Jews practice Torah yoga, Kabbalah yoga and aleph bet yoga. Although this makes yoga a bit different compared to traditional Hatha yoga, the faith component is still compatible

What were two main compromises of the constitutional convention and how did it effect the government?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

  • The Great Compromise (also known as the Connecticut Compromise)
  • The Three-Fifths Compromise

The two compromises affected the way a state's representation in Congress would be determined.

Explanation:

Both of these compromises were devised during the United States Constitutional Convention in 1787.  

The Great Compromise resolved a dispute between small population states and large population states.  The large population states wanted representation in Congress to be based on a state's population size.  The smaller states feared this would lead to unchecked dominance by the big states; they wanted all states to receive the same amount of representation.  The Great Compromise created a bicameral (two-chamber) legislature.  Representation in the House of Representatives would be based on population.  In the Senate, all states would have the same amount of representation, by two Senators.

The Three-Fifths Compromise was a way of accounting (somewhat) for the population of slaves in states that permitted slavery.  For taxation and representation purposes, the question was whether slaves should count in the population figures.  (They were not considered voting citizens at that time.)   The Three-Fifths Compromise said that three out of every five slaves could be counted when determining a state's population size for determining how many seats that state would receive in the House of Representatives.
