<span>The reason why Catholic priest are not allowed
to marry because they need to be devoted to the Lord, giving their full focus
and attention to him. It has been said in the bible which is from Paul that
being single makes the person focus his attention to the Lord for his attention
are not shared or undivided by others. And another reason of this cause is
because they are vowed to serve on the Lord, meaning that their whole focus
should be served on no one but Him.</span>
It depends on the context. During the Industrialization era of the United States, hundreds of thousands of immigrants from Germany, Ireland, Italy, and other European countries came to the United States in hopes of finding a better life. Many of these immigrants stayed in cities (the Irish in particular) and were seen to factory managers as incredibly useful and cheap labor, as they do not know how the American life was. These immigrants were taken advantage of and worked long hours with very little wage. Politicians, too, saw immigrants as easy votes. Others were not as thrilled to the new influx of immigrants. Many American citizens were threatened by the increasing population of European immigrants and felt like they were taking away jobs and land from "native" Americans (not to be confused with the indigenous peoples that inhabited the United States territory prior to the Age of Exploration). They developed the concept of nativism, which was the argument that because immigrants were never born or raised in the United States, they should not have as much as an opportunity as those who were born and raised in the country. This concept of thinking still exists today. Hope this helps!
