Why did the ideas of John Locke dominate thinking in England in the eighteenth century?
His ideas were revolutionary because, unlike our world, it was a world of monarchy. Kings, queens, and the church had been ruling the world for a thousand years. This was a world where the king owned the land, animals, and people. Where he could arrest or kill anyone he wanted and that the people were there to serve him. The church had taught man that they were needed because they were the middle man between God and man. The church also made decisions in government, medicine, and social issues. Locke wrote that man had rights and these were God given not king given. That man had choice in his government and he could change it. To the people of his time Locke presented new thinking and was a threat to the status quo. As the ideas took hold they began to dominate the thinking concerning government and how people could change the government. To us this is not revolutionary thinking, but it was for it's time.
