Answer: a.sensory evidence the foundation of knowledge

Descartes believed that we can access knowledge through our senses. This is the way we experience the world. However, he argued that our "humanity" was our ability to perceive things and reflect on them. This is why humans can know they are real: because they can perceive things and think about them. Perception and rationality go hand in hand.

The idea of sensory evidence is present in Galileo's thought as well. He similarly believed that senses needed to be paired up with rationality, as they can deceive us sometimes. For example, we might perceive the Sun to be moving even though it is the Earth which is in fact in motion. Nevertheless, Galileo recognized the importance of our senses in gathering data about the world.

Read the excerpt from a letter Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote while imprisoned in Birmingham Jail in 1963. One who breaks an unju
Reil [10]

  Martin Luther King's efforts were inspired by Thoreau's definition of Civil Obedience being his words an extension of Thoreau's in his text. Both of them went to jail under a law that they resisted to, which is a form of peaceful political protest.  In the Thoreau's "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" we get the same message that we get from King's letter:

   "<em>Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison</em>."

<em>    (...) It is there that the fugitive slave, and the Mexican prisoner on parole, and the Indian come to plead the wrongs of his race, should find them; on that separate, but more free and honorable ground, where the State places those who are not with her but against her,—the only house in a slave-state in which a free man can abide with honor.</em> <em>If any think that their influence would be lost there, and their voices no longer afflict the ear of the State, that they would not be as an enemy within its walls, they do not know by how much truth is stronger than error, nor how much more eloquently and effectively he can combat injustice who has experienced a little in his own person."</em>

<em>  </em>    The excerpt above it's similar to Luther King's because it shows that even from jail, the one who find a law to be unjust and suffers it's penalty, is able to show society how unjust this law is, this attitude may change the law quicker , as many just men suffers from it.
