How have change how I used to see the world before and now because of culture
My beliefs is what have changed the most through time, I used to believe in God, but when I started thinking by myself, I started reading and finding answers in science, I topped believing in God. Nowadays I am more like an agnostic person or more specific pantheist person, I believe that if there is a God it is no more than energy that exist in the whole universe, including living creatures, I think the cultural aspect that form this perception was my brother´s curiosity shot he once gave me. -
