Question

the english philosopher john locke wrote that
○ all people have the natural right to life and liberty.
○ only governments could provide rights to citizens.
○ a government should hold absolute power over its people.
○ all men are created equal.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

John Locke, a key Enlightenment thinker, argued in his political philosophy that individuals possess inherent natural rights to life, liberty, and property, which exist before the formation of governments. The other options contradict his ideas: he rejected absolute government power, argued rights are natural (not granted by governments), and the phrase "all men are created equal" is most closely associated with Thomas Jefferson in the U.S. Declaration of Independence.

Answer:

all people have the natural right to life and liberty.
