The Enlightenment appears as a need to deny the divine right of the king, so the first option offered is excluded. As such, it propagated science, democracy, social justice, a democratic government, against the absolute and ecclesiastical dogma, which includes the secularist attitude and the understanding of the world on the basis of it. By advocating a democratic government that is overthrown by the majority if it is not for the benefit of the people, it means examining and confirming the natural rights that people possess. The Enlightenment does not adopt anything without questioning, examining and scientific approach, which excludes the fourth option, while it is very much concerned with the examination of authority, since the emphasis is on the law of nature, the natural law of the authority is always examined.
