Answer:

For historical context, Galileo Galilei believed that the world circled around the sun, rather then the sun circling the world (as the Roman Catholic Church suggests). The Roman Catholic Church persecuted Galileo and tried to silence him due to his discovery that was contradictory to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, in which it, when proven true, would lead people to question other teachings of the Catholic Church and "lead people astray". Therefore, in an effort to not only keep the public image of the Catholic Church afloat, but also the respect and therefore funding of the church, The Roman Catholic Church moved to punish Galileo.

How do the basic principles of government protect individual rights and impact the functioning of government ?
steposvetlana [31]

The safeguarding of fundamental human rights is crucial for democratic functioning since it is a core tenant of liberal democracy that all citizens are created equal.

<h3>What are human rights?</h3>

Human rights are ethical precepts or rules for particular expectations of human behaviour and are usually safeguarded by domestic and international law. They are usually interpreted as unalienable, fundamental rights that all people, regardless of age, ethnicity, geography, language, religion, or any other status, are "inherent in all human beings" and to which they are "inherently entitled simply because they are a human being." They are universal in the sense that they apply anywhere and they are egalitarian in the sense that everyone is subject to them. They are thought to entail empathy, the application of the law, and a requirement that people respect the human rights of others.
