Read the text The History of Ice Cream:


I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! Who doesn't love a nice, cold scoop of ice cream on a warm day? For thousands of years, ice cream has been a decadent dessert loved by most people around the world.


There is some argument about who first invented ice cream. Some believe that ice cream was invented by the Chinese people anywhere from 2,000 to 6,000 years ago. They created a recipe of frozen milk and rice that was served as a dessert. Persia has also been credited with first serving frozen desserts. Over 2,000 years ago, the wealthy people of Persia enjoyed shaved ice from the mountains, covered with grape juice. They later learned to freeze rosewater and add different fruit toppings. These desserts were considered delicacies that only the richest families could experience. About 1,000 years after this, there is evidence that suggested Nero, the Roman Emperor, also enjoyed frozen treats and demanded that a constant supply of ice from the mountains be available to him. He liked to add honey to the top of his dessert.


Why could only the richest families eat ice cream?


Ice cream needed to be stored in a freezer.

Ice cream was expensive because it was a rare dessert.

Ice cream was hard to obtain from the mountains.

Ice cream was only available to those in Italy.

read thesis 81 and 82 and explain thesis 82 in luther's ninety-five thesis​

Answers

Answer: 81) This unbridled preaching of indulgences makes it difficult even for learned men to rescue the reverence which is due the pope from slander or from the shrewd questions of the laity.    82) Such as: ``Why does not the pope empty purgatory for the sake of holy love and the dire need of the souls that are there if he redeems an infinite number of souls for the sake of miserable money with which to build a church?'' The former reason would be most just; the latter is most trivial.

Explanation: Martin Luther is making the point that grace is a much better reason for saving souls from purgatory than paying money, and that to say otherwise goes against the core tenants of Christianity, which views money as dangerous and corrupting, and grace and mercy as the virtues that everyone should strive for and that define Christ.
