Naturalism

I think to understand why naturalism is so importan we mus try to understand how was living in a time were people think that everything was a construction by gods and were you cant imagine what was the origin of nature, I think is a great advance especially the athomic theory were they explain us that we are made up of invisible pieces that supose to match to make us how we are, so that was a huge change from the idea of gods but I think gods were also there in the mind of people and to replace this idea was the most difficult think. I think Naturalism is a point were science and philosophy joined and were the escence of nature is explained and when we understand nature we understand everything and also is and advance of so many theories like evolution that we believe now. So in conclussion Thales change their time by giving explanations of natural things without the base of a supernatural power.
