I believe that my thinker would agree with this in the way that he also wanted freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and free commerce.

My philosopher also believed in a free and liberal society but in a different way. Montesquieu did it by creating the 3 branches of government, wile Voltaire did it by the rights a speech, religion, and free commerce.

Voltaire was exiled to Tulle in 1716 for making fun off the Duc D'Orleans.  He returned to Paris only to be arrested in 1717 for writing false writing and was sentenced to the Bastille.  He was sent to the Bastille again in 1726 for disagreeing with Chavalair De Rohan.  He was in there for a small time until he was exiled to England where he stayed for three years. The french invented the guillotine for political (and other) prisoners.

Voltaire influenced the U.S government stating his opinions about the government and the Catholic church working together. To this day in America we do not have a state church and this idea was shared by Voltaire. He also influenced the U.S Government by starting the foundation for the first amendment in our Constitution.  His book Candide is still debated upon about weather he wrote it to justify his ideas on a pessimistic society or to encourage people to improve their society. That book is found in many collages and is required for English majors.

Another one of his philosophies was as a vegetarian and a strong believer of animal rights he praised Hinduism. He said that the Hindus were peaceful and innocent people that would never hurt any one or defend themselves with weapons. He favored on religious  tolerance  but hated the idea of Christianity, Judaism and  Islam. At this time the government was backed by the Catholic Church so more people followed what they said, but the people who made history at that time where the people who stood up against the Catholics churches beliefs.
