Answer: Most people were not educated, so they turned to Church leaders for answers to their questions.
Explanation:
Education in the Middle Ages was under the control of the church. The population was generally illiterate or, to a lesser extent, had only elementary knowledge (writing and reading), and according to the above answers were mostly sought in the church. The education process itself was under the control of the church. In the early Middle Ages, most of the population was illiterate.
Elementary knows, that is, reading and writing were taught only in the church. In the developed Middle Ages, the situation was partially improved. As the population grew, so did the administration, so there was a need for more educated staff. However, even then, the church controlled the education system. The study program covered seven freelance skills, namely arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, music, grammar, rhetoric, and logic. There were also special programs for enhanced study of law, medicine, and theology.
