How Modernism Changed Human Thinking: Truth, Faith and Meaning Explainedvor 4 Tagen16 Min.

What if everything you think you know about progress is actually making life more confusing? Casey explores how modernism completely rewired human thinking about truth, faith, and meaning - creating both incredible advances and a crisis of purpose that we're still living through today.

🎯 What You'll Learn:

• How human religious thinking evolved from spirits-in-everything to one God to... nothing at all

• Why the Protestant Reformation in 1517 accidentally created our modern obsession with wealth and success

• The three ways people tried to fill the faith gap (spoiler: none of them really worked)

• How philosophy promised to replace religion but ended up creating even more questions

👤 Perfect for: lifelong learners and anyone passionate about personal growth who's ever wondered why modern life feels simultaneously amazing and empty.
