Answer 2

The scientific revolution contributed to the progress, reason, and fraternal aspects of the enlightenment, providing the philosophical tools necessary to debunk long-held superstitious and religious beliefs (producing a secular body of reasoned work and creating a network of scientific societies). It collaborated in theoretical fields and in the application of the new discoveries.

The Enlightenment was characterized by a feeling that humanity could change the world. Knowledge served humanity, not religion, and the ideas of original sin and asceticism declined.

The Scientific Revolution represents the change from antiquity to modernity (the period in history where the science replaced superstition).
