Question- Which statement accurately describes events in the Revolutionary War?​

Subject- History/Social Studies

Time This Question Was Answered- On Tuesday, April 28th 2020, at 8:56PM

Answer- The correct answer for this question is, B)The American victory at Saratoga convinced France to join the war on the colonists' side.

Further Explanation On My Answer- The battle of Saratoga was one of the most important wars fought during the course of the war of independence of the United States. Its outcome contributed, to a large extent, to deciding the final outcome of the contest in favor of the continental army. This battle took place between September 19 and October 17, 1777 in Saratoga, a region located between Boston and the Great Lakes area, in the vicinity of the Hudson River. The victory strengthened the possibility of triumph of the citizen militias over a line army, which precipitated the support of France (1778) and the Spanish Empire (1779) to the American independence cause.

Which is a characteristic of a federal state?
mylen [45]

Answer:

D. governmental power is shared

Explanation: In a Federal state, the power within the government typically shifted into several smaller regions. Each region will be given the power to independently regulate Itself (creating legislation, proposing government programs, etc), In United States, we refer to this as States government.

On top of the state's government, the Federal state established the Central government. The central government has authority over the state's government and will be responsible to create regulations that affected a nation as a whole rather than one individual state.

What connection does that Bible story and Dylan's song have with ethics and the so-called "Divine Command Theory" as espoused by
Darina [25.2K]

The connection is that Dylan's song ("Highway 61 Revisited") and "that Bible story" (Abraham sacrificing Isaac) both point to the ethical idea that doing the right thing means doing whatever it is that is divinely commanded.  

Explanation/context:

The origins of "Divine Command Theory" stem back to a dialogue written by Plato, which has the philosopher Socrates engaged in discussion with Euthyphro about the meaning of piety or goodness.  Socrates was being accused of impiety in Athenian court.  Impiety to the Athenians meant conduct that was displeasing to the gods.  At that same time, Euthyphro was at court in Athens to prosecute his own father for having killed a servant.  Socrates asked the kinds of questions he normally did, pressing Euthyphro how he knew that prosecuting his own father was a good thing.  Euthyphro said punishing wrongdoers for wrongdoing was the pious thing to do, no matter who the wrongdoers are.  Socrates then asked Euthyphro to how we know what "piety" is -- and Euthyphro said it was doing that which is dear to the gods.  That's the "divine command" theory in a nutshell.  Bear in mind, as the dialogue between Socrates and Euthyphro continued, there was much more nuanced thought about how well that definition works.  Socrates asked, for instance, "whether the pious or holy is beloved by the gods because it is holy, or holy because it is beloved of the gods."  That became a difficult conundrum for their consideration in the dialogue.

The Abraham story in the Bible follows the "divine command theory" idea. When God commanded Abraham to sacrifice his only son Isaac, the fact that God commanded it would make it right, according to divine command theory -- even though the act itself seemed horribly wrong.

Bob Dylan played with that idea in the lyrics to his song, "Highway 61 Revisited," from the album <em>Highway 61 Revisited </em>(1965) ...

<em>Oh, God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"</em>

<em>Abe said, "Man, you must be puttin' me on"</em>

God said, "No" Abe say, "What?"

God say, "You can do what you want, Abe, but

The next time you see me comin', you better run"

Well, Abe said, "Where d'you want this killin' done?"

God said, "Out on Highway 61"
