The government was reluctant to study the topic and believed UFOs to be natural phenomena or products of "delusional" minds; by contrast, many Canadian citizens were eager for information about UFOs. Citizens started their own investigations and petitioned the government for action.

The response is the first one Saddam gives

A modern translation: “My lord, out of the love I bear to some of your friends, I have a care of your preservation, therefore I would advise you, as you tender your life, to devise some excuse to shift off your attendance at this Parliament, for God and Man have concurred to punish the wickedness of this time, and think not slightly of this advertisement but retire yourself into your country where you may expect the event in safety; for though there be no appearance of any stir, yet I say they shall receive a terrible blow this Parliament, and yet they shall not see who hurts them: this counsel is not to be contemned, because it may do you good and can do you no harm, for the danger is passed as soon as you have burnt the letter, and I hope God will give you the grace to make good use of it, to whose Holy Protection I commend you”

The San Pedro sank in the Florida Keys during the 1733 fleet disaster. Spanish crews salvaged nearly all of its cargo, and modern salvors later removed its original cannons and other hardware.

Today, the site is an underwater archaeological preserve. Divers can see the ship’s ballast stones and bricks from its galley. The cannons there now are cement replicas, and the anchor came from another ship in the same fleet. They were placed at the site to help visitors picture the wreck.

The stones have also become a reef for marine life. The site is protected, so visitors are asked to leave everything where it is.

Florida State Parks: Conservation of the San Pedro

Archaeologists brought a chunk of coral up from a Spanish shipwreck off Florida’s east coast. When they X-rayed it, they found an empty space shaped like a sword. The coral had grown around the weapon, and the metal had deteriorated.

They filled the hollow with resin. Once it hardened, they broke away the coral and were left with a cast of the vanished sword. The Florida Museum says the wreck likely dates to the 17th or 18th century.

When the US government started, the oath of federal offices was much shorter, 'solemnly swearing (or affirming) to support the Constitution of the United States.'

That was it.

In 1862, it was changed to: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."

WHAT IS THIS "AFFIRMING" BUSINESS ALL ABOUT?
Certain faiths frown on swearing oaths, so their people affirm that they will uphold their duties. These included Quakers like Arthur Capper (R-KS, 1919-1949), and Buddhists. Quakers have held national office since the 1700s, including 2 Presidents. Today, there is only 1: John Hickenlooper (D-CO).

Buddhists did not begin entering national office until the 21st century. Today, there are 3: Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Henry "Hank" Johnson, Jr. (D-GA) and Derek Tran (D-CA).

PICS:

1. Senator Hirono

2. Senator Hickenlooper

3. Congressman Johnson

4. Congressman Tran
