Andrej [43]3 years ago

The census asks questions of people in homes and group living situations, including how many people live or stay in each home, and the sex, age and race of each person. The goal is to count everyone once, only once, and in the right place.

It is mandated by Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution and takes place every 10 years. The data collected by the decennial census determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and is also used to distribute hundreds of billions of dollars in federal funds to local communities.

How are monks behaving in ways contrary to teachings of jesus christ
ioda

Answer: They are filthy, ignorant, and love wine and women.

Explanation:

In his book titled "The Praise of Folly" which was written in 1509. Erasmus criticizes different classes of people in society. Including them were the monks.

According to Erasmus, monks are behaving in ways contrary to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Based on the fact that during his time monks are ignorant, "They cannot read, and so they consider it the height of piety to have no contact with literature..."

At the same time, they're filthy "Most of them capitalize on their dirt and poverty by whining for food from door to door.."

They also love wine and women, "The monks of certain orders recoil in horror from money, as if it were poison, but not from wine or women."
