You overhear your friend say to another friend “I just heard about Hinduism, but I have no idea what it is?”. You say to your friend, “I just learned about Hinduism in school. Let me tell you about it!”
In an 11 sentence paragraph, explain to your friend what Hinduism is, in a factual manner.
Answer:
Hinduism is a religion with various Gods and Goddesses. According to Hinduism, three Gods rule the world. Brahma: the creator; Vishnu: the preserver and Shiva: the destroyer. Lord Vishnu did his job of preserving the world by incarnating himself in different forms at times of crisis.
The three Lords that rule the world have consorts and they are goddesses too. Consort of Brahma is Sarasvati; goddess of learning. Vishnu's consort is Lakshmi; goddess of wealth and prosperity. Shiva's consort is Parvati who is worshipped as Kali or Durga.
Besides these Gods and Goddesses there are a number of other Gods and Goddesses. To name a few of them, there is Ganesh; who has an elephant's head and he is also a son of Shiva and Parvati, Hanuman; who is an ape, Surya; Lord of sun, Ganga Ma; Goddess of river Ganges; Samundra; Lord of the sea, Indra; king of the Gods ( but he isn't an important God), Prithvi; Goddess of earth, Shakti; Goddess of strength. The Hindus call their Goddesses 'Ma' meaning mother.
Some gods have more than one name. Shiva is also known as Shankar, Mahadev, Natraj, Mahesh and many other names. Ganesh is also called Ganpati. God Vishnu incarnated 9 times to do his job and in his every appearance he had a different form which are also worshipped as Gods. Among his appearances, he appeared as Rama, Krishna, Narsimha, Parsuram and Buddha. Krishna also has different names, Gopal; Kishan; Shyam and other names. He also has other titles with meanings like 'Basuri Wala' which means the flute musician and 'Makhan Chor' which means the butter stealer. There are also Gods who can change their forms, for example: Parvati can change into Kali or Durga.
Not all of these Gods are worshiped by all Hindus. Some Hindus worship only Vishnu. Others worship only Shiva. Others worship only the Goddesses and call these Goddesses collectively as Shakti meaning strength. Many of these Goddess worshipers worship Parvati in her images as Kali or Durga. People who worship Shiva or Vishnu also worship characters and images connected with these Gods. Vishnu worshipers (Vaishnaites) also worship his appearances. Shiva's worshipers (Shaivites) also worship images of bull called Nandi, who was Shiva's carrier and a unique stone design connected to Shiva. There are also Hindus who worship all the Gods. There are some Gods who are worshiped all over India like Rama and Krishna and other Gods who are worshiped more in one region than the other like Ganesh who is worshiped mainly in west India. Hindus also worship Gods according to their personal needs. People who engage in wrestling, body building and other physical sports worship Hanuman, who in Hindu legends was an ape with lot of physical strength. Businessmen worship Lakshmi, Goddess of wealth.

Answer:
D. can produce a good at a lower opportunity cost.

The Seventh Amendment involves what kind of legal issue?
A)
Civil law
B)
Criminal law
C)
Freedom of Speech
D)
Right to Bear Arms
Answer:A
Explanation:
I just did the quiz on "USA Test-Prep" and got it correct.
The Seventh Amendment involves the legal issue of Civil law. Thus option (A) is correct.
What was the Seventh Amendment ?The Seventh Amendment is the amendment (1791) to the Constitution of the United States, part of the Bill of Rights, that formally established the rules governing civil trials.
The amendment’s objective was to preserve a distinction between the responsibilities of the courts (such as deciding matters of law) and those of juries (such as deciding matters of fact).
While the Seventh Amendment's provision for jury trials in civil cases has never been incorporated (applied to the states), almost every state has a provision for jury trials in civil cases in its constitution. The prohibition of overturning a jury's findings of fact applies to federal cases, state cases involving federal law, and to review of state cases by federal courts

What is erosion?
washing away of the fertilizer
washing away of the stones and rocks
washing away of the crops
washing away of the soil
Answer:
Washing away of the soil
Explanation:
The farmers of the Midwest realize that the good soil is a precious natural resource. Where the land is more hilly, farmers plow following the curve of the hill instead of up and down. If the rows of crops went up and down the hill, rain would wash quickly along the furrows. Soil, and perhaps the crop itself, would be washed away. Washing away of soil is called erosion. If the rows of crops go around the hill, the water is stopped by each row and soaks into the soil.

All of the following are true of Manifest Destiny EXCEPT -
Select one:
Native Americans could remain on their land
America should stretch from ocean to ocean
American believed it was their destiny
Answer:
Native Americans could remain on their land.
Explanation:
The Americans tried to negotiate with the Native Americans at first, but eventually, they forced them out of their land through the Trail of Tears, therefore, the Native Americans could NOT remain on their land.
The majority of Americans wanted to expand their territory from the east coast to the west coast.
Americans believed that they had a right to expand by god, so you could possibly say that they believed it was their "destiny."
