| John Locke believed in the principle of private property. |
Aside from politics and philosophy, Locke also had contributions in the fields of education and medicine. He grew up in an Anglican-Puritan family who instilled early grains of thought about a sense of responsibility towards other people; this, however, did not inspire him to turn into a devout follower of his family’s religion. Locke’s lawyer father likewise emphasized the value of education that somehow motivated him to earn college and postgraduate degrees in mid-1650s (Encyclopaedia Britannica 12).
