Well said @silentscreamer, truly these great minds of ancient times were quite broad in their speculation and tried to use logic or in a more simpler word, common sense, to solve the quandary of the universe. But, they had little or no observational evidence and advanced mathematical understanding of the universe and could therefore only speculate. To discredit their claims without giving them adequate considerations, however, would be totally unwarranted since it is Aristotle himself who paved the way for empirical reasoning, and without his help, we may have not been where we are. And it is still more true that even with all our development in scientific knowledge, when it comes to the question of our etymology, we can still only speculate. Thank you for stating your opinion on the matter @silentscreamer, you are indeed a savant on the matter. The next article promises to give you more insight and perhaps, leave you wondering too and i would very much like to hear what you have to say on the matter when we put science in the spotlight. Keep updated and thank you once again for your contribution, it was insightful.

Exactly. We should always study them because they indeed paved the way for empirical way of reasoning. They are greats indeed. Keep up the good work. Lovely post. 😉
