First off, Mary did not ascend into Heaven. To ascend means to rise up under one's own power. Mary could not do that. She was assumed (taken) by God into Heaven.

In the Paul's letter to the Romans we are told that 'Sin came into the world through one person (Adam), and death came through sin.' In other words, Original Sin brought on death and corruption of the body. Mary was born free of sin so did not have to undergo death and decay as we know it. As to actual evidence, we can only rely on some apocryphal scriptures and traditions. It is said that as Mary approached death, messages were sent to the apostles. Most of them came to be at her bedside. However, Thomas arrived three days after Mary passed. When they took him to the tomb, it was empty. The Doctrine of the Assumption does not specify if Mary was assumed into Heaven before she actually died or was taken, body and soul, shortly after her death. Some think it occurred three days after her death to coincide with the three days Our Lord spent in the tomb.

Left defence is not not a position in soccer. There are left full backs, left backs, left wing backs, left centre backs. And their job is to defend lol though some teams like their left/right backs (and wing backs) to run down the wings and get crosses in to the strikers so wing backs have to be fast ideally for that role


In a group discussion sentences would be the best example of synthesizing clams and evidence?

In a group discussion, sentences that effectively synthesize claims and evidence should be clear and to the point. They should accurately summarize the main claim being made and directly reference the supporting evidence that backs it up. By presenting the claim and evidence in a coherent and logical manner, the group can more easily understand and evaluate the argument being put forward.
