At the time people had far far greater understanding of faith and God. In this society we are like babies in our understanding in comparison. Maybe you and I can only aspire to a greatly watered down experience. This is a direct result of our ignorance, I'd suggest.
So people had a far greater understanding of faith ... Would it not be fair to assume that the rise of scientific knowledge and understanding is directly related to this "far greater understanding of faith in God"
Maybe at this time in history God was the only explanation ... Not really the case anymore?
