It was a new religion in that time and he wanted more people to join and spread his religion everywhere. Another document that would support his point of view is another Christian believer like John or Luke that wrote Jesus’ teachings about the rich and how it’s discouraged by Jesus to be wealthy on earth. Thomas Aquinas, (4) leading Scholastic theologian 1273, wrote that no man should sell what is not his, though he may charge for the loss he suffers. He possibly had this point of view because Roman governors were taking advantage of people in selling food supplies and resources in higher prices and he could no longer provide for his family. It was probably popular at that time to increase prices from trade and he wanted to warn people that getting rich will end in suffering instead of happiness.
First Peoples - Chapter 2 questions for consideration The motive of the Spanish empire for coming to and remaining in the “New World” is described best in our text book as “a mission for gold and god.” Spain found that the “New World” was fertile land and rich in mineral resources. They saw it as an opportunity for expanding their empire and generating wealth very rapidly. Spain also believed that they had a “divine and royal mandate” to convert the native people to Catholicism. This was of course accomplished by force. The conquistadors would read a document, when encountering native people, called the “Requerimiento.” This document, read only in Spanish and not understood by the natives, required Indians to be subject to the church and acknowledge it as a superior ruler of the entire world.

Just think if Spain still had control over Cuba and Hawaii, we would have to spend more money as a country to import sugar and pineapples. With America going to war with Spain and gaining control of Hawaii and Cuba these things are not taxed as much as they would have been. During the war however, many people in Spain and supporting Spain in the war, burnt the sugar cane fields and threatened the lives of many. People against the idea of imperialism were worried about the wars that it might entail and I cannot say that I blame them. With the Spanish American War happening because of the imperialism, this brought many people in America against the idea.
The negative and deadly effects of the discovery of the Americas were undoubtedly costly to civilizations and worlds, as I will state in the following paragraphs. “… Faith in Christ had spread over the entire earth through… the Apostles:” (Guicciardini Document 1). This brought wide spread confusion and negative outlook on the wave of voyagers to civilization. Europeans and Italians, who were leaving their homeland going to the new land, said they would spread Christianity to the worlds. This statement contradicted that the Apostles were supposed to spread the Christian faith across the world not by voyagers and shouldn’t be done by them.
This was called the Assumption Plan. In order for Hamilton's ideas to work, he had to make the wealthy tied to the federal government, so that they would believe in his system. They would become more likely to help and give more money if they were tied to the system itself. Jefferson and his supporters opposed this plan because of their belief in the states having a greater power than the federal government, and this gave the federal government too much power. However, when Hamilton agreed to establish the nation's capital in the South along the Potomac River, Jefferson and his supporters agreed to the idea.
Before John was King of England, for many years, the kings defended English territory within France by using English men and money. King John acted in this similar way but his military campaigns were unsuccessful. England and France were constantly at war. By 1204, he had lost his lands in northern France; this included his family’s ancestral land in Normandy and Anjou to Philip II. In order to continue battling France, the King forced from his barons greater taxes and additional military services, this angered the barons because he did not consult them before raising taxes; this was a violation of feudal law and custom.
One might say it is evident Gatsby has attained the American Dream by looking at his possessions, such as boats, cars, a big house, and lavishing riches. But, others might argue Gatsby only possesses the materialistic dream. Fitzgerald makes an allusion to Benjamin Franklin’s work and presents his schedule (Fitzgerald, 173). The schedule which Franklin created was his goal to save time, meet his expectations, and try to achieve perfection. But, he knew achieving perfection was impossible, yet he believed trying to achieve moral perfection is what the true American Dream is all about.
Christopher Columbus Traveling to India around the southern tip of Africa was dangerous and difficult. An Italian sailor by the name of Christopher Columbus proposed finding a new route by sailing west. Columbus thought that if they sailed west, they would eventually circle the globe, and arrive in Eastern Asia. For seven years Christopher Columbus traveled around Europe looking for someone who would finance his journey. The monarchs of Europe made fun of him, saying that it was too risky and dangerous to attempt such a voyage around the globe.
The Catholic Church did not want to be responsible for funding the Inquisition. The Inquisition was funded by the royal treasury but this was not sufficient and so they began using the money obtained from people’s property to fund the Inquisition. The church thought it would be best to take people’s property instead of taking people’s lives. This affected families throughout Spain. If a father was accused of something his whole family will suffer with him.
