How did the ideas that came about from the enlightenment and the changes that occurred from the industrial revolution connect to the end of slavery in Western Nations (US, England, France, etc) ? Answer in 3-5 complete sentences. :3 <3

Enlightenment philosophy and Great Awakening Christianity were very different, but both influenced the American colonies and American Revolution and both frame our thinking today.  The Enlightenment — so named by its own practitioners, who didn’t lack self-esteem — is best thought of as a continuation of the Renaissance we read about in Chapter 2, with a strong emphasis on the Scientific Revolution, reason, and progress.  Its practitioners adhered to the scientific method of testing hypotheses through rigorous, repeatable experimentation.  Ancient Greeks, inventors of the first organized sporting events (the Olympics), also promoted hard-nosed, constructive debate and organized competition in law, politics, philosophy, and science.  Greeks like Thales, Pythagoras, Hippocrates, Heron, and Democritus took things in this analytical direction first — testing their ideas against each other — and Iraqi-Egyptian Hasan Ibn al-Haytham (aka Alhazen) honed the scientific method in the Middle Ages.  Even in ancient Greece, though, thinkers were outnumbered: Athenians banished Anaxagoras for arguing that the Moon was a rock rather than a God.
