The main reason that the Constitution did not proclaim all men to be free and equal is because of the issue of slavery. Many of the Founding Fathers were slaveowners, including George Washington. The Founding Fathers did not want to lose the support of southern states when it came time to ratify the Constitution.

The government should protect people’s rights.

Explanation:

However, Locke thought that the government had the power to give and take rights. Jefferson, on the other hand, believed that people had certain “natural” rights that could not be taken away: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Locke thought that people’s rights included Life, Liberty, and Property.

Around the late 17th century a movement started that promoted individualism, reasoning, scepticism, and secularism. This movement was called the Enlightenment, or the "Age of Enlightenment". The Scientific Revolution is related to the enlightenment as<u> people used the scientific method to understand the world around them</u>.

The Renaissance and the Reformation had the main ideas that started this movement. Religion was very important in the life of the people at the time. Protestantism argued that s<em>alvation wasn't mediated by Church,</em> but was rather a matter of <em>personal faith</em> <em>and giving the scriptures the importance Christian Church didn't.</em> The Reformation rejected the traditional teachings of the Church that weren't in the Bible. This led to a schism that would separate Catholic Church and what would be known as the Protestant Church. Protestantism placed <u>emphasis on the individual and, as said before, people's salvation by faith alone and not by doing good works or sacrament.</u>

The Reinassence and Reformation encouraged the return to the origins and the study of early manuscripts in their original languages. This marked the beginning of modern science. The Reinassence showed people they could live without the pressure of pleasing God. It promoted secular values over religious values. They were widely influenced by Roman and Greek civilization, which led to the movement of democracy.
