d. it supported protestant teachings, undermining the authority of the church.
the answer is d.

The correct answer is answer B ("It promoted rational thinking and presented logical theories that weakened the authority of the church").

The Scientific Revolution brought a radical change in the way people thought and caused a complete shift in paradigm. By promoting critical-thinking and logic, it encouraged society to start question figures of authority such as the Church. Religious power always leaned on supernatural narratives that had little to do with logical reasoning, thus their credibility started going down very fast.
