History Questions
1. Why is Voltaire’s discussion of the Royal Exchange relevant to his discussion of religion in Great Britain?
Voltaire’s discussion on the Royal Exchange relates with the discussion of religion in Great Britain since in both cases there is harmony and respect for all the involved parties. In Great Britain, there are many religious groups such as the Episcopal and Presbyterian denominations mentioned in the discussion. Similarly in the Royal Exchange, there are many representatives from different backgrounds that have to coexist and work freely for the utility of men. Great Britain is compared to this safe haven that all types of religion cam assemble in and perform their various beliefs without fear of interference from other groups. The most important factor for a nation’s representative in the Royal Exchange is to strike the best foreign exchange deals, while for a religious denomination; the most important factor is for them to perform their religious beliefs without interference.
2. What does Voltaire think of Presbyterian ministers? What motivates them? What effect have they had on the religious and social life of Britain? What do his comments in the passage suggest about his attitude towards religious belief in general?
Voltaire thinks that Presbyterian ministers hate each other and relate with each other in cordiality. He also believes that all clergy members are motivated by the ambition to become masters in their denomination. The Presbyterian ministers aspire to have control over major ceremonies in Great Britain by incorporating religious cultures and practices in all the functions that they oversee.
The aspect of religious incorporation in people’s life is seen through marriages in Britain that are social events where a Presbyterian minister has to lead the couple in taking their marriage vows. The swearing in of members of parliament and other government officials also involves taking of an oath guided by religious principles such as lifting up of a bible. V ...

History Questions
1. Why is Voltaire’s discussion of the Royal Exchange relevant
to his discussion of religion in Great Britain?
Voltaire’s discussion on the Royal Exchange relates with the
discussion of religion in Great Britain since in both cases there
is harmony and respect for all the involved parties. In Great
Britain, there are many religious groups such as the Episcopal
and Presbyterian denominations mentioned in the discussion.
3. Similarly in the Royal Exchange, there are many representatives
from different backgrounds that have to coexist and work freely
for the utility of men. Great Britain is compared to this safe
haven that all types of religion cam assemble in and perform
their various beliefs without fear of interference from other
groups. The most important factor for a nation’s representative
in the Royal Exchange is to strike the best foreign exchange
deals, while for a religious denomination; the most important
factor is for them to perform their religious beliefs without
interference.
2. What does Voltaire think of Presbyterian ministers? What
motivates them? What effect have they had on the religious and
social life of Britain? What do his comments in the passage
suggest about his attitude towards religious belief in general?
Voltaire thinks that Presbyterian ministers hate each other and
relate with each other in cordiality. He also believes that all
clergy members are motivated by the ambition to become
masters in their denomination. The Presbyterian ministers aspire
to have control over major ceremonies in Great Britain by
incorporating religious cultures and practices in all the
functions that they oversee.
The aspect of religious incorporation in people’s life is
seen through marriages in Britain that are social events where a
Presbyterian minister has to lead the couple in taking their
marriage vows. The swearing in of members of parliament and
other government officials also involves taking of an oath
guided by religious principles such as lifting up of a bible.
Voltaire’s attitude towards the Presbyterian ministers is
definitely that of contempt since he regards to them as
ambitious masters that continuously seek attention and
acknowledgement from every aspect of life.
3. Why does Voltaire believe that Britain enjoys religious
peace?
Voltaire believes that Britain enjoys religious peace because of
their tolerant approach towards matters religion. In the
discussion, Voltaire acknowledges the fact that Britain is a
4. country with many religions that balance harmoniously with
each other due to the fact that every English man is free to
select their denomination. The many religious groups in Britain
display their respect for each other’s religion due to the fact
that they are all headed for heaven even through different
passages.
1. How, according to Smith did rich men with few attractive
goods available to purchase use their wealth? How did this
shape the social and political order? Rich men with few
attractive goods that they can trade to acquire end up consuming
their wealth. According to Adam Smith[footnoteRef:1], rich
men were very generous with their wealth once they had little or
nothing to purchase in the period before commerce and
manufacture. The wealthy in society used to hold large banquets
that they invited all in the society including their servants and
dependents to partake. The act of holding banquets and
festivities with the surplus wealth in rich men’s possession
shaped the society in both social and political ways. Socially,
the rich men became popular and highly regarded in society as
everyone wanted to be affiliated with them. Politically, the rich
men were viewed as rulers and in aristocratic set ups they were
given leadership positions in their society. [1: Smith,
Adam. An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of
Nations,(1776). Methuen, 1950.]
2. Once such men began buying “baubles,” how did their
relations with the poorer members of society change? How did
this strengthen an emerging central government? The
introduction of foreign commerce and manufacturing lead to the
re-directing of rich men’s wealth to purchasing of baubles and
not on the feeding of tenants on their land. The dependence of
the poor on the tenants gradually decreased as they began to
survive on their own without handouts from the rich. This
aspect changed their relationship with the rich men that
formerly acted as their administrators and rulers. The emerging
5. central government was now able to regain control over their
subjects and rule over them since their loyalty was no longer
owed to their rich proprietors.
3. What does this version of history suggest about the likelihood
and limits of human progress? About how such progress occurs?
The version of history described by Adam Smith reveals that
change is an essential part of human progress. The change from
the consumption of surplus wealth to investment into
manufacturing and foreign commerce is responsible for the
shape that the society has taken over the years. Utilization of
wealth in a nation is an economic factor that has been used to
measure human progress since the historic period. The central
government in Adam Smith’s case was formed as a result of
taking back the tools of production. Changing factors in a
nation are, therefore, responsible for the human progress.
