Answer:

  • Congress had changed the meaning of the First Amendment, rather than enforcing it.
  • Congress had created a law that was not proportional to the problem it was fixing.
  • Congress had taken away states’ rights by passing the RFRA.

Explanation:

The Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 was passed in light of the Supreme Court upholding an Oregon state decision to deny two American Indian men unemployment benefits for having taken a banned substance which they normally use in their religious events.

Congress passed this bill with only 3 Senators opposing it so that it could prevent such from happening again.

The Supreme Court however ruled the Act as unconstitutional as it claimed that Congress was overexerting its powers by: changing the meaning of the First Amendment, creating a law that was disproportionate to the problems it was fixing and overexerting federal power on states and taking away their rights to manage their affairs in this regard.

what happens after the raven flies into the speakers roomin the raven by edgar allan poe arrange the events in order
Hatshy [7]

Stanza 7 is when the raven flies into the room and sits on the state of Pallas (Greek goddess of wisdom)

At first, the narrator is amused that it's just a bird. He asks the bird its name and it said, "Nevermore."

The narrator mentioned earlier of the lost of his love Lenore, and he doesn't know if the raven's repetition of "nevermore" is connected to his sorrow - or if it's just a coincidence.

"<em>On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before.</em>

<em>Then the bird said 'Nevermore'</em>"


The narrator mentions the arrival of angels (Seraphim, "by the angels he hath sent thee) who burn incense and hopes that the raven is there to help him forget his sorrows. He wants to drink a potion to forget his sadness.

quaff = drink

nepenthe = medicine to treat sadness

(Stanza 14)

<em> Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer </em>

<em>Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor. </em>

<em>    “Wretch,” I cried, “thy God hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee </em>

<em>    Respite—respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore; </em>

<em>Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!” </em>

<em>            Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”</em>


He assumes the bird will leave tomorrow, and the raven appears to deny it.

Through stanzas 14 - 17 he asks the raven a series of questions (are you evil?  will you help me heal? Will I see Lenore in heaven?  which it answers all of them with the word "nevermore." At last, he demands the raven to leave, to which it also replied, "nevermore."

In the last stanza, the raven looks over the narrator, while the narrator dwells on his sorrow. It suggests that the narrator will never recover from his sadness.

<em>And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor </em>

<em>            Shall be lifted—nevermore! </em>

Ivan

Answer:

A) Anaphora

Explanation:

The literary device Turner is using is 'anaphora'. This is because anaphora basically refers to the repetition of word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses, and in the above except, the word 'behind' begins the clause and is also repeated; thus giving a perfect example of anaphora in a clause.
