<em>How do you think Voltaire's trip to England was a turning point for him and for the Enlightenment? </em>

He was influed by the freedom (by the time's standards) he found in England comparing to France.

<em>Why do you think Denis Diderot said that an intolerant man is an evil man? Do you agree? Explain your answer. </em>

Yes, I agree. Because to be intolerant means not to listen to the other side and acknowldege their right to have a different opinion, this can lead to de-humanization of the opponent to the point of justifying any evil act towards him/her.

<em>Why do you think the philosophes never recognized their own prejudices about women? </em>

Maybe they are the product of their time, they are humans, and as any normal human being they are/were failable. Sometimes they could see things that no-one had ever seen before but sometimes they failed to acknowledge their mistakes and their times' mistakes.
