Answers
Answer:
The relation between religion and politics continues to be an important theme in political philosophy, despite the emergent consensus (both among political theorists and in practical political contexts, such as the United Nations) on the right to freedom of conscience and on the need for some sort of separation between church and state. One reason for the importance of this topic is that religions often make strong claims on people’s allegiance, and universal religions make these claims on all people, rather than just a particular community. For example, Islam has traditionally held that all people owe obedience to Allah’s will. Thus, it is probably inevitable that religious commitments will sometimes come into conflict with the demands of politics. But religious beliefs and practices also potentially support politics in many ways. The extent and form of this support is as important to political philosophers as is the possibility for conflict. Moreover, there has been a growing interest in minority groups and the political rights and entitlements they are due. One result of this interest is substantial attention given to the particular concerns and needs of minority groups who are distinguished by their religion, as opposed to ethnicity, gender, or wealth.
This article surveys some of the philosophical problems raised by the various ways in which religion and politics may intersect. The first two main sections are devoted to topics that have been important in previous eras, especially the early modern era, although in both sections there is discussion of analogs to these topics that are more pressing for contemporary political thought: (1) establishment of a church or faith versus complete separation of church and state; and (2) toleration versus coercion of religious belief, and current conflicts between religious practice and political authority. The second pair of sections is devoted to problems that, for the most part, have come to the fore of discussion only in recent times: (3) liberal citizenship and its demands on private self-understanding; and (4) the role of religion in public deliberation.

The correct answer is :
(b) To oppose the uncontrolled power of dynastic rulers
Explanation :
‘liberals’ wanted to oppose the uncontrolled power of dynastic rulers.
The liberals wanted that the uncontrolled power of the dynastic rulers should be controlled and they had made their policy only to oppose the dynastic rulers. The theory of liberal litigants was that dynasty is fatal for democracy.
According to the liberal litigants, the dynastic rule used to harass the common people to pay taxes. The rulers did whatever they wanted and lived their lives in luxury. He would go on fighting to build grand palaces and empty his treasury. The general public had to bear the brunt of this.
That is why liberal dynasticism was known only to oppose the infinite powers of the rulers. Respect for all religions was the principle of liberal litigants. He was in favor of universal vassal suffrage and in favor of a government appointed by the king.
