Answer:
Erasmus
Explanation:
Erasmus was a Dutch scholar and Catholic priest whose views were distinct from many other religious reformers. Erasmus travelled throughout Europe as a biblical and humanist educator. He trusted the power of words and used his writing to attack scholars theology and clerical abuses and promote his philosophy of Christ.
Erasmus was condemned from all sides because of his ideas which were opposed by clergies. He had worked for peace and unity, only to experience war and breakup.
President George H.W. Bush is a very conservative and pragmatic leader. He showed these traits in dealing with foreign affairs. Before acting on a situation, he studies the policies first. An example of his conservatism and pragmatism involved China.
When the Chinese government gunned down their people who conducted a peaceful protest, the US government didn't react as harshly as its people wanted. They imposed limited sanctions. This is because President Bush knows that they still have to deal with China in the future. He did not burn down the bridge on this foreign relation.
