The answer is A. The churches were against Science because it started to restrict the power they had. People began to realize that it was ok to ask why instead of just saying that's the way God wanted something. This resulted in a decrease in church attendance and the support and influence the church had recently attained within the government. They did their best to discredit scientists and philosophical thinkers.
