Enlightenment and Industrial Revolution are the times when Rational thinking and believing based on facts started to occur and it collided with the superstition thinking that once become the basis of truth and knowledge for centuries. These events started to revolutionize the new way of thinking of men and society into proving things based on facts and not on assumptions.
