Answer:

At midnight on January 16, 1920, the manufacturing, sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages became illegal in the United States. The relatively quick and easy ratification of the 18th Amendment came as no surprise to its supporters, especially given more than half the states already prohibited alcohol within their borders. The surprise was that Prohibition proved nearly impossible to enforce, quickly becoming one of the most openly violated laws in American history.

Baptism is the first step to salvation and the basis for all other sacraments; without it, the others cannot take place. It initiates you into the faith, making you an official member of the Catholic Church. The Sacrament of Baptism has five effects:

It removes the stain of Original and personal sin.

It absolves us of the corporeal and eternal punishment that resulted from that sin.

It infuses us with the life of God, called sanctifying grace. We become a part of Christ.

Through it, we become part of the Church representing the Mystical Body of Christ.

It allows you to participate in other Sacraments and to increase your grace.

Holy Orders allows a man to continue the work of Jesus Christ and His Apostles by passing His authority to those who are worthy. Those receiving this sacrament are able to administer sacraments to others, though a bishop is the only member who can perform the Sacrament of Holy Orders. Three levels of ordination exist: deacons, priests, and bishops.
