The Greatest Question you can ever ask..
Our World has been shaped by individuals who have often asked questions other people didn’t know could be asked. People didn’t even know those were even questions until someone from among them stood up and raised a finger. “The Reformation“, as we know it now, was the era where people began asking questions. They looked around at their World and started asking the questions of “How” and “Why“. The
Centuries later, Science is now so deeply rooted within our nerves that asking the questions of “why” comes naturally to us.
