Why was open trade a strength in the articles of confederation
Sladkaya [172]

The Articles of Confederation gave the federal government the power to declare war and to manage its own department of international relations. However, the Articles of Confederation did not give the US government the power to collect taxes nationwide, regulate interstate or international trade, or direct the government of these states. According to the Articles of Confederation, each state would be responsible for managing its own government and each state would also be the only one with the power to create its own taxes and laws.

As long as people believe in absurdities (inconsistent with reason) they will continue to commit atrocities (cruel acts)
kobusy [5.1K]

The quote belongs to Francisco María Arouet de Voltaire (1694-1779) One of the greatest philosophers form XVIII century. Voltaire is a deist and aspires to demonstrate the existence of God by rational means, in opposition to the mystical-religious doctrine of revelation; an essential demonstration of the existence of God is, according to Voltaire, the perfect construction of the Universe. This famous phrase, about the irrationality induced by the dogmatic belief that religion and the church imposes, particularly opposed to superstition, prejudice, and fanaticism. Though his beliefs were direct critics to Catholicism, nowadays it is believed that Islamic syncretism can also be explained through his point of view, when interpreting the Coran, justifying the “sacred war" (the Islamic Jihad) against impure ones, by God’s Word.
