Voltaire (jan 1, 1694 – jan 1, 1778)
Description:
Voltaire was a strong believer in hypocrisy of religions, and thought that if you didn't follow all the requirements, then you weren't a true believer in the religion. Voltaire had created a book called "Candide", which was a boy traveling and seeing many horrific things, and later arrives to find an old man who has grown delicious food, and tells the adventurer to "tend to his own garden". Furthermore, it was believed by Voltaire that freedom of speech should be permitted to everyone. Freedom of Speech was the first thing written in the constitution, and one was permitted to say everything as long as it doesn't encourage violence.Added to timeline:
