It doesn't always work, but science tries to work toward reality and objective truth, rather than opinions.
The 1500s and 1600s was the time of the Renaissance and then the Enlightenment. Both were concerned about man, nature, and how things worked. The Scientific Revolution started in the 1500s during the Renaissance. This is heralded by the publication of Andreas VesaliusÕs book On the Workings of the Human Body. Nicolaus Copernicus, Galileo Lalilei, Tycho Brahe, and Johannes Brahe were other scientists of this time period to advance science. In the 1600s, the scientific method became more widespread. Isaac newton is one of the scientists most closely associated with this time period.
It would be simplistic to say that science has civilized us. Science has given us a much greater capability to live civilized lives, but it has equally well given us the capacity for new and more terrible barbarities. To a very large extent, civilization depends more upon what people think, and what their attitude is toward the society in which they live, than it does upon science and technology.
The conflicts of modern science, particularly during the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution, challenged traditional beliefs and authority, leading to significant societal transformations. Debates over issues like evolution, climate change, and medical advancements reshaped public understanding of nature and human existence, fostering a more evidence-based worldview. These changes promoted secularism, encouraged critical thinking, and often spurred social movements advocating for reform in education, ethics, and governance. Ultimately, the tensions between scientific progress and established norms catalyzed shifts toward modern, rational societies.
Romanticism was a school of thought that gained popularity in the early 19th century as a reaction against the Enlightenment and its mechanistic view of nature. Romantics believed in genius and in a connection between man and nature.

In general there was no difference between these attitudes; except that European courts had determined that "Native Americans" were the legal land owners in [the] Americas and that settlers could not just take the land from them. For this, and only this reason, the attitudes of English Settlers was different.
