A writ of habeas corpus is used to bring a prisoner or other detainee (e.g. institutionalized mental patient) before the court to determine if the person's imprisonment or detention is lawful. A habeas petition proceeds as a civil action against the State agent (usually a warden) who holds the defendant in custody.

How did Benedict established the basic form of monastic life in the western Christian church
Montano1993 [528]

Saint Benedict of Nursia founded the Benedictine monastery at Monte Cassino, he is also the father of Western monacticism. He sought to create a sacred school and community and a safe place free from distraction, negativity and vices so, he turned the monastery into a place of work, prayer and space to provide spiritual life and guidance. Inside the monastery people learnt how to live and worship according to his rule. If a person wanted to live as a cenobite monk, he had to renounce to his possessions and distractions and follow God.

He also wrote The rule of Saint Benedict which is a book consisting of precepts for monks living under the authority of an abbot. Benedictines have been using The Rule of Saint Benedict for 15 centuries. As a result Benedict is regarded as the founder of Western monasticism as his rules gave way to reforms on the current Catholic hierarch.

What do you think is a valid reason for a country to go to war? Read the reasons below and decide whether you think each reason
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Hey!
Hope this helps...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I do not believe there is the right reason for any country to go into war. Although if I had to pick one reason that a country might go into a war, or a reason that could be justifiable for going into war. My decision would be going into war to protect an ally from an invasion.
This is not because of the thought of war, this is because if a country lose his allies, it would be defenseless when war is thrust of the pawn that country who needed that Ally.

So i would say the answer is: B.) to protect an Ally from an invasion.
