Charts, stars and sperm: the emergence of the modern world

Man is the measure of all things


We are able to classify the world into 4 categories: The World We Stand on; The World We Live in, The Invisible World, and The Evolving World.



Mainly due to our dire to know more, however in this case, curiosity didn't kill the cat, but have lead us to where we are today.

Further elaborating on The World We Stand on, namely, the earth, we know it as it is, the sand, the dirt, the water, the flowers, everything that is visible to our human eye. There have been exploration done during the Pirate era, where adventurers went about to travel and explore the world.

On the World Under The Skin, we look into the world of biology: the study of how things function inside our body -  the heart, the liver, the red blood cells and all.
On The Invisible World, is about the things that are not visible to our naked eye, for example, study of microorganism:
The Invisible World

And finally, the Evolving World. Atheist will stand to the theory that our earth starts from a small speck of dust among the galaxy, and us human evolve from mere tiny microorganism to apes, and finally to what we are today.


As we expand our knowledge, we grew suspicious to what we already know, hence the dire pushes us towards today.
