Compare and contrast Protestantism and Catholicism

Protestants believe that it takes away from the authority of the Bible to believe in any other source of scriptural truth. The Nature of Salvation: Protestants believe that all that is necessary for salvation is faith in Jesus Christ and acceptance of his crucifixion as payment for our sins. The beliefs for catholicism include God's existence, interest in individual human beings, who can enter into relations with God, meaning prayer, the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), the divinity of Jesus, each human soul being immortal, and how each person is accountable for all his or her actions before and after death.

answer: secession

secession, as it applies to the outbreak of the american civil war, comprises the series of events that began on december 20, 1860, and extended through june 8 of the next year when eleven states in the lower and upper south severed their ties with the union. the first seven seceding states of the lower south set up a provisional government at montgomery, alabama. after hostilities began at fort sumter in charleston harbor on april 12, 1861, the border states of virginia, arkansas, tennessee, and north carolina joined the new government, which then moved its capital to richmond, virginia. the union was thus divided approximately on geographic lines. twenty-one northern and border states retained the style and title of the united states, while the eleven slave states adopted the nomenclature of the confederate states of america.
