The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options for this question, we can say the following.

In what way was James K. Polk's presidency not reflective of his statement, "The world has nothing to fear from military ambition in our Government."?

Answer:

In that his decisions and actions showed the imperialistic and expansionistic side of the United States federal government, supporting the idea of the Manifested destiny, believing that God blessed the United States to expand and grow.

That is why President Polk, for instance, negotiated with the British the Parallel 49 to settle the border dispute to Canada. He signed the Oregon Treaty on June 15, 1846.

Or the issues and differences with the Mexican government when President Polk offered the Mexican government $20,000,000 to acquire the territories of New Mexico and California.

Washington said we can't have “national morality" without "religious principles." Do you agree with him? Explain ​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

In “The Farewell Address,” George Washington describes religion and morality as the two indispensable pillars which support political prosperity. He then says that we should be cautious about the idea that morality can flourish without religion and concludes with the assertion:

"Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."

There is considerable debate about the religious opinions of the founding fathers, including Washington. Whether he meant it or not, however, this statement is clearly false. There is no clear correlation between religious principles and national morality, let alone any good evidence that one causes the other. This would have been less clear two hundred years ago, since practically every nation had an established church, from which it was often difficult for many people to dissent publicly. Nonetheless, it is now clear that secular nations such as Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Belgium are sustained by a national morality at least as strong as any religious nation. These countries have low rates of crime and particularly of violent crime. They have enlightened, compassionate social policies which enjoy the support of the majority of citizens. Their presses are freer and their political systems less corrupt than the average in Europe, let alone worldwide. They conform in every material respect to the founding fathers’ notion of political prosperity.
