Abraham Lincoln used this phrase when he exposed his thoughts against slavery. For him, <em>“No man is good enough to govern another man, without that other's consent. I say this is the leading principle--the sheet anchor of American republicanism."</em>

This means that Americans gave the founding fathers the power to create a Constitution and a government, which means that the civil government can exercise the powers that are granted by the Constitution.

Abraham Lincoln called this “the leading principle – the sheet anchor of American republicanism.” This principle requires that civil government exercise only those powers which are specifically granted and is found throughout the Constitution. :)

seraphim [82]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Some of the problems that I might have at the beginning of the Renaissance could have been the frequent attacks of the Catholic Church due to my ideas of freedom of speech, questioning the existence of a supreme god, and my constant search to find more and better truths to answer questions that in the past were only answered by the church's view and teachings.

Can you think of ways to solve the problems?

Yes, trying to inform and educate more people that the dark ages were gone. The Medieval Age was gone and that humans are able to use reason to learn new things, be free, and grow. The more people would learn to read and have access to education, the better. No more control through religious beliefs.

During the Renaissance, the Catholic Church was increasingly seen as a corrupt institution with too much power.

That is when the concept of "Humanism" was introduced, which meant more respect for the human being and his possibility to increase knowledge through reason.

France is 1, they have nuclear weapons and have signed and ratified the NPT. 2 is Pakistan, they have conducted tests and claim that they have nuclear weapons, but haven't signed the treaty. Israel is 4 because it hasn't declared itself and is ambiguous when it comes to nuclear weapons, but it is suspected that they have it. Iraq is 3, they were invaded because it was feared that Sadam's regime has nuclear weapons and is ready to use them.
