I won't completely disagree with the other answer given here, but would like to offer broader context and explanation. Yes, during the Scientific Revolution the humanism of the Renaissance did help thinking persons to see that human beings themselves could shape and order many things in the created world. But note that I used the term, "created world," since the scientists of the Scientific Revolution still held onto belief in God and saw God as the one who designed the universe with order in it.
