The Enlightenment was a time when science, politics, and religion (mostly the last two, science not as much) were questioned, causing many to follow the new ideas of government and what Christianity should be (or whatever form of religion was addressed.) It is likely that some found the Enlightenment disturbing because it supported change and reform from tradition. Let me know if you need anything else!! :)
