Answer:

They knew it was only for the rich so by doing this it made them on equal grounds with one another.

Explanation:

The text titled 'The Destructors' penned by Graham Greene presents both the acts either of 'pinching free rides' or 'destroying the house' primarily to depict the lost character of youth. Their activities display no 'purpose' or 'identity' and their life has rather turned into a 'parking lot.' The pinching of rides to go nowhere and T's wish to destroy the house of Mr. Thomas mirrors their asinine destruction without any divine meaning. Greene displays the grief or sadness confronted by these youths as they lack a purpose, real meaning, values, or morality in the life. They are empty and void from inside. These characteristics show that they both were similar.

Why did Queen Elizabeth not honor the Treaty of Tordsillas?
vladimir2022 [97]
In 1493, after reports of Columbus’s discoveries had reached them, the Spanish rulers Ferdinand and Isabella enlisted papal support for their claims to the New World in order to inhibit the Portuguese and other possible rival claimants. To accommodate them, the Spanish-born pope Alexander VI issued bulls setting up a line of demarcation from pole to pole 100 leagues (about 320 miles) west of the Cape Verde Islands. Spain was given exclusive rights to all newly discovered and undiscovered lands in the region west of the line. Portuguese expeditions were to keep to the east of the line. Neither power was to occupy any territory already in the hands of a Christian ruler.

No other European powers facing the Atlantic Ocean ever accepted this papal disposition or the subsequent agreement deriving from it. King John II of Portugal was dissatisfied because Portugal’s rights in the New World were insufficiently affirmed, and the Portuguese would not even have sufficient room at sea for their African voyages. Meeting at Tordesillas, in northwestern Spain, Spanish and Portuguese ambassadors reaffirmed the papal division, but the line itself was moved to 370 leagues (1,185 miles) west of the Cape Verde Islands, or about 46°30′ W of Greenwich. Pope Julius II finally sanctioned the change in 1506. The new boundary enabled Portugal to claim the coast of Brazil after its discovery by Pedro Álvares Cabral in 1500. Brazilian exploration and settlement far to the west of the line of demarcation in subsequent centuries laid a firm basis for Brazil’s claims to vast areas of the interior of South America.

Using physical torture as a means to obtain a confession violates due process, though not miranda.
Vladimir79 [104]

Yes, using physical torture as a means to obtain a confession violate due process because the court will not consider this confession at the time of trial.

In many religions, confession is the admission of one's faults or wrongdoings. One of Catholicism's most distinctive and beautiful features is the Sacrament of Reconciliation. In order for us sinners to receive forgiveness for our transgressions and find peace with God and the Church, Jesus Christ instituted the Sacrament of Confession. I truly desire to give up all of my bad habits and to sincerely confess my sins to you and your priest. O Lord, I am a sinner; have mercy on me. Give me a strong belief in the suffering of my Redeemer and a vibrant faith. Give me regret for offending such a good God for the sake of your benevolence.
