    Maybe it's because I don't know much about religion in general, but I never heard that Buddha was fat, or even a god. I thought he was just some chill guy

    The whole Washington cherry tree thing was made up but the story goes that a young George Washington wanted all the cherries from his fathers tree so he cut it down and when his father asked he told the truth. It’s supposed to paint him as this honest guy

    Indeed, on the slavery front in Egypt. A millenia and a half later, there's no archaeological evidence for the story of Moses or the Exodus. Rather it's a myth of national identity likely coined as an etiology to explain the superiority of hill tribes over plain tribes.

    Corey refused to enter the plea because without doing so his trial couldn't move forward. Those who were found guilty not only faced execution by hanging but their property was also forfeited to the Colony. Typically what happened was ones neighbors could absorb ones land as the Court would sell it off rather cheaply. Corey knew this and knew if he either plead guilty or was found guilty his sons would lose their claim on his land.

    Whether or not he said the words "more weight" or it was the invention of Arthur Miller in his play "The Crucible" is unknown.

    Pressing was standard procedure for contempt of Court for centuries.
