Answer:

Almost all religions believe in Idol/ Pictorial worship.

All Eastern religions which are (Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Chinese Folk, Taoism, Confucianism, Shintoism) except for Sikhism believe in Idol worship though Buddha & Jinan may not be Gods.  Sikhism, an Indian religion, does not believe in Idols but worships pictures of Sikh Gurus. Those pictures are garlanded with flowers, silk cloth, and others.

Most Christians worship Idols with exception of Pure Biblical & Protestant Christianity. They emphasize of worship of large marble & golden idols, statues of Jesus, Mary, Father, Cross, etc. Eastern Christianity highly emphasizes on Idol worship.

Central Asian religions like Zoroastrianism worships pictures of Farvarah & Zoroaster, though not Ahura Mazda. Even it involves doing some rites before Idols of Zoroastrian demigods like Mithra. Yazidism highly worships idols of peacock & a diety close to Hindu Karthikeya.

Islam does not believe on Idols but at least resembles worship to the big Idol Kaaba. Muslims visit Mecca, bow before the Kaaba, say some gospels & chants before the idol, circumambulate it, consider it very sacred; all these acts resemble nothing but Kaaba worship.

On the East, they worship pictures of The Kaaba surrounded with a Moon, Star & Mohammad holding a sword with some Arabic stuff written over it. They are even garlanded & incenses are burnt near them.

One might expect university president compensation to increase when contributions rise, as more effective fundraisers are reward
faltersainse [42]

Explanation:

Because studies find that large donors respond negatively to pay increase and would be less likely to donate in the future and, as fewer donors with larger donations, they have more influential power than in a context with multiple donors with smaller donations. Therefore, to secure those fewer but large donations, presidents receive less than in another context.

To know a claim a priori is to know it to be true on the basis of reliable testimony.
Lana71 [14]

The philosophical term “a priory” was popularized by Immanuel Kant and it concerns epistemology, philosophy dealing with the theory of knowledge. A priory actually refers to something that can be deduced by reason alone, while the "a posteriori" is something that cannot be known by reason alone like empirical facts.
