Natural philosophers study the natural world through observation and sometimes experimentation to understand its underlying principles and phenomena. They aim to explain natural phenomena using reason and logic rather than religious or supernatural explanations.
Philosophers sought to uncover fundamental principles and laws that govern the natural world, such as laws of physics, biology, and chemistry. They aimed to understand the underlying order and regularities that shape the universe and explain natural phenomena.
"Human rights" is a term synonymous with natural rights according to Enlightenment philosophers. They believed that certain rights were inherent and inalienable to all individuals by virtue of their humanity.
Philosophers focus on the study of fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language, whereas natural philosophers focus on the study of the natural world and physical phenomena. Natural philosophy eventually evolved into modern science, with a more empirical and experimental approach to understanding the natural world.
Greek philosophers believed that people can understand natural events by observing and studying the patterns and relationships in the natural world, using reason and logic to make sense of the world around them. They emphasized the importance of observation, reflection, and critical thinking in order to gain insight into the underlying principles governing natural phenomena.
Philosophers of the Enlightenment described natural rights as inherent, universal rights that are not granted by government but are essential to human nature. Examples of natural rights include the right to life, liberty, and property, as articulated by philosophers like John Locke and Thomas Jefferson. These rights were seen as fundamental and inalienable, forming the basis for modern concepts of individual freedoms and human rights.
