What was the main reason that most northerners were opposed to the Fugitive Slave Act? A. They resented being forced to help slave owners.
B. They felt it would encourage slaves to rebel.
C. They felt it gave the government too much power.
D. They resented being forced to help abolitionists.

A. They resented being forced to help slave owners.

Explanation:

Most northerners were abolitionists, and did no believe in slavery. Some, if not most, also took it upon themselves to help slaves escaping. To be forced to catch slaves and return them was against the societal standards norm of the days in the North, and many did not support the Fugitive Slave Act.

the answer is catholics

        i'm fairly sure that the correct answers are 2 and 3.

        i used both my knowledge of world history and the process of elimination to obtain these answers. option 1 cannot be a possible selection because the mandate of heaven belongs to ancient chinese philosophical belief. option 4 sounds like it would benefit the region than detriment it. however, both 2 and 3 explain a potential reason for what could have contributed to the fall of the roman empire.

      hope this ! if i were you, i'd get a second opinion, because i haven't taken this course for a year. best of luck!
