<u>Yes, if he breaks any of the laws of nature, because these are the moral laws for Hobbes. </u>

Violating the laws of nature can be not performing one's valid pacts as a ruler or not seeking peace when others want to do so and also not being grateful.

Moral limits that Hobbes places on the ruler are useless, because when we make a pact with the ruler, we give all of our natural rights away to the sovereign.

We cannot question/revolt because they've our rights.

Can only act if we are in danger ⇒ right to self - defense

A scientific theory is based on objectively verifiable evidence, not the support (or lack thereof) of its founder or anyone else
Kamila [148]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A scientific theory is an explanation that can be repeatedly tested and verified in accordance with the scientific method, using accepted protocols of observation, measurement, and evaluation of results.

Where possible, theories are tested in controlled experiments.

For those that can't be experimented, they are treated through a set of observations.

Therefore, scientific theories are not based on the founder or the support of anyone else, but rather, on verifiable facts that have been tested.
