The Enlightenment marked a return to more serious, yet pleasurable and chaotic pursuits, in opposition to the strict codified practices of the Puritans. True or False True False

True

Explanation:

While the puritans where radical protestants of calvinist inspiration who deemed God to be the center of the universe, the meaning of life, the determinant of people's fate, and whose ultimate desire was to act in God's way, the Enlightenment thinkers were antropocentrics who believed that humans, not God, were at the center of the universe, were rationalists who thought that explanations for reality should be found in science, and not in religion, and whose ultimate desire was to act rationally, and accordingly to personal principle.

This means that the Enlightment marked a transition toward a more flexible approach to life: equally serious as the Puritan way of life because it was also rational, but less rigid because now humans set their own limits, those limits were not set by a divine force anymore.
