Answer:

The First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States prohibits the creation of any law with respect to the official establishment of a religion, which prevents the free practice of it, that reduces freedom of expression, that violates the freedom of the press, that interferes with the right of peaceful assembly or prohibiting requesting compensation for government grievances. It was adopted on December 15, 1791, as the first of the ten amendments to the Bill of Rights.

In the United States, with regard to religious freedom, the emphasis is on absolute non-interference of the state in the affairs of a religion.

On the other hand, the United States also protects the religious freedom of the individual. Whether the complete neutrality of the state is actually realized, is controversial in view of the Christian-primed civil-religious elements of American society. For example, the sentence In God we trust is printed or embossed on all US monetary symbols; In public swearing is usually sworn on the Bible - this is not codified, but when an Islamic congresist used the Koran, this was publicly very controversial.

What did Confucius believe would come about if people acted according to the five relationships?
dlinn [17]

Answer: Confucius believed that if people acted according to the five relationships, social order and harmony would be restored in China.

Explanation: Confucius  was born in 551 B.C. He lived in a time in China when there was violence and the older values from the Zhou  Dynasty were no longer being respected. Confucius was a teacher and wanted to restore harmony and thought it would be achieved by respecting the five relationships that would organize society, these were the relations between:

1) ruler and subject, 2) father and son, 3) husband and wife, 4) older brother and younger brother, and 5) friend and  friend.

He created a code of proper conduct for each of these relationships.

The ethical system created by Confucius became the base for chinese government and social order.

How did the sit-down stoke DIFFER from a traditional strike in which workers walked off of their jobs ?
svetlana [45]

A sit down strike is a strike which has a somewhat nontraditional nature as it is when employees take "illegal" possession of their workplace by committing to a strike at their work stations. Furthermore, employees 'sit-down' at their station but do not work. It is considered a form of civil disobedience. This differs from a traditional strike as in traditional strikes workers walk off their jobs and therefore can be replaced whereas a sit-down strike causes work stations to be occupied and therefore does not allow employees to be replaced easily.
