Enlightenment

Enlightenment Some people were Christian, but during the enlightenment, many ideas and people were secular.

Some humanists raised questions about religious texts by using Greek and Roman ideas. Most humanists during that time were religious.

One person that had to do with religion during the enlightenment was Voltaire. Voltaire believed that no religious text was needed to believe in God. He mocked religious text in his writings. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f3/Voltaire.jpg/220px-Voltaire.jpg
