I am fairly certain the same "age of reason" does not exist in Chinese culture. It would be interesting to know if there is an equivalent in Asia. | |

You don't have a believe in a magical being in the clouds to follow that. The Catholic Church is one of the most influential governments in human history. (Not so much today, which is perhaps why the reference may seem weird) | |

I had only heard the phrase "age of reason" once before today and posit there is likely to be developental reasons for it even though the term is appears associated with a religious belief which is foreign to me | |
