The pre-modern period occurred from any time before the 1600s; during this time there was a strong belief in the supernatural. The modern period occurred between 1600 and 1960; during this time skepticism of the supernatural occurred and people began to see that they could find things out about the world around them through study and observation. In the postmodern period, from 1960 to present time, people reject revelation and rely solely on reason they can gather through reason.
