Signed on the 2nd November 1917, the Balfour Declaration was written by the Foreign Secretary James Balfour and it was addressed to Baron Lionel Walter Rothschild, a Jewish banker. The ultimate goal of the declaration was to provide support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. The declaration proved to be controversial and the fact that it is still divisive in the 21st century shows the ever lasting impact of Britain’s involvement in this deep-rooted issue. The main reasons why Britain issued the Balfour Declaration was due to own self interest in protecting the Suez Canal and the oilfields in Iraq, to secure Britain’s alliances during the First World War, a response to widespread sympathy for the Jewish population in Britain and a way of keeping out the Jewish population from Britain.

What evidence do we have that religion was an important part of early government?
kondaur [170]

Answer:I’d say A

Explanation:

In response to widespread sentiment that to survive the United States needed a stronger federal government, a convention met in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787 and on September 17 adopted the Constitution of the United States. Aside from Article VI, which stated that "no religious Test shall ever be required as Qualification" for federal office holders, the Constitution said little about religion. Its reserve troubled two groups of Americans--those who wanted the new instrument of government to give faith a larger role and those who feared that it would do so. This latter group, worried that the Constitution did not prohibit the kind of state-supported religion that had flourished in some colonies, exerted pressure on the members of the First Federal Congress. In September 1789 the Congress adopted the First Amendment to the Constitution, which, when ratified by the required number of states in December 1791, forbade Congress to make any law "respecting an establishment of religion."The first two Presidents of the United States were patrons of religion--George Washington was an Episcopal vestryman, and John Adams described himself as "a church going animal." Both offered strong rhetorical support for religion. In his Farewell Address of September 1796, Washington called religion, as the source of morality, "a necessary spring of popular government," while Adams claimed that statesmen "may plan and speculate for Liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone, which can establish the Principles upon which Freedom can securely stand." Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, the third and fourth Presidents, are generally considered less hospitable to religion than their predecessors, but evidence presented in this section shows that, while in office, both offered religion powerful symbolic support.

prisoha [69]

Question : What serious problem did the pilgrims face when they landed on November 11 and how did they solve this problem ?

My Answer :  

What was the problem ?

They had drifted off course and had landed north of the original place where they were suppose to settle with also winter fast approaching; by staying where they were.

They also faced : 1. Disease

2. Indian attack

3. Malnutrition

4. Starvation

5. Unfamilliar weather

Most of these problems they couldn't solve, like disease, attack, starvation, and weather. The early colonists weren't very willing to work. They thought America was a continuous land of bounty from which they could reap the harvest. Well...it wasn't. A lot of people starved to death. On top of that, they were constantly worried about Indian attack...and they had the right to be. None of the Indians wanted to give up their land and share their resources with a strange invader
