Answer and Explanation:

1. They were influenced by John Locke who introduced them to the rules of natural rights and natural law. Locke explained to the founding fathers that according to these concepts, all individuals are equal and are born with some inalienable rights, which cannot be removed or modified by anyone, as they are given by God and are important for everyone's survival. The founding fathers found these concepts coherent and adopted these thoughts.

2. In my opinion the Enlightenment was the most important idea, because it generated the necessary framework for the current society that we know and deprived us of many annoying people, but all the ideas mentioned were important in their own ways.

How has the supreme court influenced the application of the voting rights act in its recent decisions?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:The recent decision of the supreme court which influences the application of the voting rights act is that it removed the designation of jurisdictions that needed preclearance to change voting laws.

The Voting Rights Act of 1965, signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson, aimed to overcome legal barriers at the state and local levels that prevented African Americans from exercising their right to vote as guaranteed under the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

How does hrothgar urge Beowulf to take action against grendels mother? Observe the words he uses
Alisiya [41]

The king believed he was the only one who could cope with monsters.

King Hrothgar made an offer to Beowulf. If he consented to slaughter Grendel's mother, he would receive a jeweled sword, 7,000 hides, land, a hall, and his own reign.

<h3>Who is Grendels' Mother?</h3>

Grendel's mother was a 'aglaec-wif,' or 'female warrior.' There is no necessity to inject the concept of monstrosity or suffering here any more than there is in line 1519, when she is referred to as merewif, which simply means "water-woman," or "woman of the mere."

Grendel's mother depicts the perils that await anybody who ventures into the unknown, whether in the world or within oneself.

How did the colonists respond to the unfair British system of mercantilism?
kvasek [131]

Broadly speaking, Mercantilism was very good for European countries for a while but terrible for their colonies.

Mercantilism made people in the Old World VERY rich and this made the Colonists angry.

As a result, the colonists started to push back and eventually rebelled.

vova2212 [387]

Thi question is incomplete. Here´s the complete question.

The 2013 case of Windsor v. United States in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals employed ___ in holding that the Defense of Marriage Act held no legitimate state interest and thus overturned it.

Answer: intermediate scrutiny

Explanation:

In United States v. Windsor, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals confirmed the lower court's decision that Section 3 of DOMA was unconstitutional.

The court found that, since homosexuals had been historically subjected to discrimination, they could be considered as a group that falls under a "quasi-suspect classification", and therefore intermediate scrutiny could be applied.

DOMA was deemed unconstitutional under the equal protection guarantees of the Fifth Amendment because it didn´t pass that test.
