All the following statements regarding the New Right are true except its:
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The right answer is C): Origins can be traced back several decades before Ronald Reagan became president.

Explanation:

The New Right was not in existence several decades before Ronald Reagan became president in 1980. The New Right formed as a movement just a few (at most 2) decades before Ronald Reagan became president; actually, it started in the 1960s and 1970s by members who were unhappy over the rise in certain social and cultural issues such as crime, abortion, the social unrest due to the Vietnam War, and the practice of sexuality in public. In 1973, after the Supreme Court made a ruling in the Roe v. Wade case, a parallel movement called the Religious Right, which was in support of the New Right movement, opposed the ruling. The Religious Right was made up of so many Protestant Christians who opposed abortion and homosexuality.

According to the upanishads, why are souls reincarnated, and how might one advance up the ladder of caste? how does one end the
UNO [17]

The Upanishads are a part of the Vedas that contain some of the most important philosophical principles of Hinduism. The authorship of the Upanishads is not known, and their dating is similarly a matter of debate. However, they are the only widely known Vedic texts and the ideas they contain are at the spiritual core of Hindus.

<em>Why are souls reincarnated? </em>

Hindu traditions believe that the body dies, but the soul (Atman) is immortal and indestructible. As everything is assumed to be cyclical, once the body dies, the soul is reborn in a different body.

<em>How might one advance up the ladder of caste? </em>

Current karma impacts both our conditions in the present life and our future lives. Good intentions and actions will lead to good conditions of rebirth, such as being born a higher caste.

<em>How does one end the cycle of rebirth? </em>

This cycle of rebirth (samsara) goes on until one embarks on a spiritual pursuit of self-knowledge, and gains moksa, or release from reincarnation. This path to liberation is the main focus of the Upanishads.
