messages.content: The correct answers are:
  
  * **Knights should not seize people, particularly peasants or merchants, as plunder or payment.**  This was a key aim of the Peace and Truce of God, as knights often preyed on the vulnerable for personal gain.
  * **Church lands should not be seized or unfairly taxed.** The Church was a major landowner and often targeted by violence and extortion. The Peace and Truce sought to protect its property and resources.
  
  Let's look at why the other options are incorrect:
  
  * **Wars should only be declared with the express permission of the kingdom's Archbishop or the Pope.** While the Church held significant influence, it did not have the authority to dictate when wars could be declared. Kings and other rulers retained that power.
  * **Those breaking the peace and truce of god will be publicly executed under the King's justice.**  While there were penalties for breaking the Peace and Truce, public execution was not a standard punishment. The focus was more on excommunication and other spiritual sanctions. 
  
  
  The Peace and Truce of God were complex movements with varying levels of success. They aimed to curb violence and protect the vulnerable, but their enforcement was often inconsistent.
