Can anybody help me please lol What type of people in our society are seen as trustworthy authorities like Cotton Mather was in Puritan Massachusetts?

war never

the catholic church withhold people's access to the bible during the middle ages.

people could go to church and listen to the teachings, but it was absolutely forbidden to own and/or read the books of both the old and new testaments. it was also prohibited to translate the books (which where originally in biblical hebrew) to any other language.

this was done so the church could remain in control of what their teachings were and to enhance their importance and power, while also being able to judge people's actions through information that was unavailable for the general public.

what are the choices btw if it was me id say the lack of money to continue with education
