Solution
The correct option is B It slackened the control of religion over human life
Renaissance humanism was a response to the utilitarian approach and what came to be depicted as the "narrow pedantry" associated with medieval scholasticism. Humanists sought to create a citizenry able to speak and write with eloquence and clarity and thus capable of engaging in the civic life of their communities and persuading others to virtuous and prudent actions. Much humanist effort went into improving the understanding and translations of Biblical and early Christian texts.
