Religion and Science as Partners The Enlightenment and Great Awakening combine to EMPOWER citizens. If people can control their salvation, and can control their lives through education, then they can, and should, control their politics. Following the arbitrary rules of a king does not follow reason. People should be able to control their government. All people, not just an aristocracy should have a say in the government- this is a natural right. All of these issues, created by the ENLIGHTENMENT and GREAT AWAKENING, helped create the foundation for the American Revolution.
