How powerful was the anglo-saxon church?

The power of the Church is often over-emphasised. Certainly, the later medieval Church was rich and powerful, and that power was often misused - especially in Europe. Bishops and archbishops were appointed without any training or clerical background, church offices changed hands for cash, and so on. But that was long after our period. The authority of the early medieval Church in England was no different to that of any other landowner.

So how did people in the tenth/eleventh century act towards a cleric? According to the laws of the period, a priest had the rank of thegn (he was one of 'God's thegns'), and a bishop was at least the level of an eolderman. Don't get too misled by Hollywood's image of popular contempt for, and corruption within, the clergy.

explanation:

not everyone in america is free. it is has always been a unequal society. and yet people come in swarms, in search of better lives. some are brought as children, unaware, unknowing. some arrive and just don’t leave. they build lives, pay taxes, raise families. some enter illegally, fleeing persecution in their home country.

there are many reasons why human beings are so attracted to america, despite its history of bitterness towards immigrants.

there are almost two million immigrants brought to the us when they were children. president donald trump and his collaborators are determined to rid the us of as many undocumented immigrants as they can, and stop others from coming because none of their ancestors were immigrants.

america has so many things and yet it lacks the one thing that humanity needs to fully thrive. and so this country will not be at peace in itself until it resolves the pain at the heart of slavery, attacking immigrants, and crumble the rights of those with less power.
