1. How do you understand the “Rebellious” spirit that defines the modern period?

Ans 1. The rebellious spirit today simply defines the rebellious spirit that was shown long time
ago: RESISTING the authority and PLOTTING revenge against them. This spirit is seen even
within the family. In fact, most instances of rebellion comes from within. Even in the Bible, it is
saying that the very first instance of rebellion started when Satan resist God's authority by telling
lies against him, thus questioning his universal sovereignty or his right to rule the humankind and
the entire universe. Later, this spirit spread to humankind because of Satan's influences and
propaganda, and knowing that humans are now weak and fleshly, totally under the power of
imperfections.

2. In what did the modern Philosopher & Scientific discoveries transform us?

Ans 2. Modern philosophers and scientific discoveries contributed much on our lives today.
With those, we learn to be open-minded on things, we look, consider, and respect different
views, opinions, and perspectives; we learn to be innovative and creative in our own ways, we
adapt changes in order to keep up and sustain life, we work with multiples of tasks at the same
time in fast and easy ways. They made our lives easy, more meaningful and purposeful, and
realize how things are being possible. But they also made us become dependent on it, stick on
what we believe as part of our pride and ego, we learn to be selfish with our ideas for us to get
recognized, and we learn to also use these discoveries and learning only for our own good by
putting our lives or the others at stake and also in doing bad things that can only be benefited by
us or a few.

3. Explain the Vitruian Man

Ans 3. The Vitruvian Man was created by Leonardo da Vinci around the year 1487. It is
accompanied by notes based on the work of the famed architect, Vitruvius Pollio. The drawing,
which is in pen and ink on paper, depicts a male figure in two superimposed positions with his
arms and legs apart and simultaneously inscribed in a circle and square. The drawing and text are
sometimes called the Canon of Proportions or, less often, Proportions of Man. It is stored in the
Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, Italy, and, like most works on paper, is displayed only
occasionally. These qualities are thus shared equally by God's creation of the human body and
the human being's own production of a good building. In the late 1480s, this theme of the artistic
microcosm emerged as one of the freat unifying principles of his thought. This image provides
the perfect example of Leonardo's keen interest in proportion. In addition, this picture represents
a cornerstone of Leonardo's attempts to relate man to nature.
