Use the following quote from Enlightenment philosopher Voltaire to answer the question below:

"It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong."-Public Domain

Voltaire would have agreed that (5 points)

Sagot :

Voltaire would have agreed that "It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong" because given a government like in Ancient Greece, when Plato was put to death for "poisioning the minds of the youth," going against what is commonly believed or asserted by the government is a bad idea. Similarly, when Abraham Lincoln openly campaigned for the abolition of slavery when he ran for political office, because this was not widely accepted at the time, he was committing "political suicide."
