Today we examine and paraphrase some of English philosopher John Locke's most important ideas as well as make a fool of ourselves. You gotta geek out over learning! Dark Age gone Renaissance done 17th century has begun Science can Find the laws That all nature must obey But can we find the laws of man and society at large how should we live Enlightened now What does John Locke Say? To understand political power, we must consider the natural state, of man is a state of perfect freedom What does John Locke say? The natural state is also equality, where no man has more power than another, and it's evident that all humans are equal What does John Locke say? But if man be free why give up freedom, cause he is exposed to danger and invasion, so he joins for mutual preservation What does John Locke say? Reason is law that teaches mankind, that all are equal and nobody ought to harm another's life, health, liberty or possessions What does John Locke say?
