Why is the birth of modern science (c.1500-1700) important to how we understand knowledge and disciplinary divisions today
Mandarinka [93]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The birth of modern science (c.1500-1700) was important to how we understand the knowledge and disciplinary divisions today because the scientific method was established to get proper validation to the things in nature that in the past were attributed only to dive concepts expressed by the Church.

That old fashion way of thinking, validated by the church during the dark ages of Medieval Times, only created fear and fostered ignorance in people.

The advent of modern science changed this thing, basing its theories and answers on proper research that could be proven. That is how the human mind expanded and grew. No more myths and distorted religious beliefs that were so wrong.
