A:The acts of purification accomplished, petitions known as "norito" are spoken to the kami. This is followed by an appearance by the "miko", who commence in a slow circular motion before the main altar. Offerings are then presented to the kami by being placed on a table. This act is known as "hōbei"; the offerings themselves as "saimotsu" or "sonae-mono". Historically, the offerings given the "kami" included food, cloth, swords, and horses. In the contemporary period, lay worshippers usually give gifts of money to the kami while priests generally offer them food, drink, and sprigs of the sacred "sakaki" tree. Animal sacrifices are considered appropriate offerings, as long as the act is not committed in the temple, as the shedding of blood is seen as a polluting act that necessitates purification. The offerings presented are sometimes simple and sometimes more elaborate; at the Grand Shrine of Ise, for instance, 100 styles of food are laid out as offerings. The choice of offerings will often be tailored to the specific kami and occasion. B:Would it be reasonable to assume that embalming methods were developed in this country, to allow for a recently-slaughtered animal to be cleanly drained of fluids and dressed for ritual sacrifice? Answer: liabilities

A:The slaves faced heavy discrimination and had no opportunity for advancement, though they were educated by their masters. The Spaniards considered the Taino superior to the Africans, since the former displayed a steadfast resistance to assimilation. The slaves, in contrast, had little choice but to adapt. Many converted to Christianity and were given their masters' surnames. B:Would the Borg from Star Trek tend to have a more favorable view (or, more correctly, tend to hold less contempt) for the same group that the Spanish considered to be superior? Answer: enquiries
