  2. Yes i do see examples of how the Jews, Christians, Greeks and Romans have influenced our government today; we still have the same religious laws today, Like the Romans the people in our government our chosen by everyone, and the Romans would have court like we do today.

  5. 1. The Jews believed that every one had a spot in the world and now, America is a free country.

    2. The Athenians believed that they could act for themselves.

    3. A senate made the laws.

  6. The Romans inspired our government to be part republic, the Greeks inspired our government to be part democracy, and the Jews inspired us to believe in the Ten Commandments.

  9. I think that all religions have influenced the voting. The Jews have the ten commandments that are similar to laws, because you have to follow them! Religion influences which political party that people tend to join and vote for.
