The shared way of life is "culture" - all other options are entities, and not ways of life. This means that we can only consider options a) and d)

Elections Clause
The Elections Clause is the primary source of constitutional authority to regulate elections for the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate. The Clause directs and empowers states to determine the “Times, Places, and Manner” of congressional elections, subject to Congress’s authority to “make or alter” state regulations.
The quote above by Benjamin Franklin is a recognizable impact of the effects of the Enlightenment because it shows that Franklin valued reason and intellectual accomplishment.
Answer:
The poem’s author was Raimon de Cornet, a priest and poet from Toulouse, France. He wrote the poem to criticize the church, which at the time had its headquarters in Avignon, France, instead of Rome. He criticizes the pope, cardinals, and bishops for leading rich and lavish lifestyles while the poor suffered. His purpose is to show his point of view. I can tell this is his purpose because in the first sentence he says "I see the pope his sacred trust betray", making me think is his pont of view. I think Matin Luther would have liked or supported this poem because he also questioned the church.
