Art reflects the Religious and philosophical views of each time and era on earth

My wife and I were discussing this and I said, "Yes. When I studied Cultural Anthropology I realized this too." So, as people move from religious point of view to religious point of view and from philosophical emphasis to philosophical emphasis in their lives over time through the generations, people tend to change the way they relate to each other, the world, with themselves in a long series of sometimes successful and sometimes unsuccessful ways of interfacing with each other and the world. This is constantly changing over time in all cultures all over the earth as they are exposed to more and different information.

This will tend to be even more extreme in the changes brought about by media of all kinds, especially smartphones in the hands of children and young adults all over the world. This will bring swifter changes both for the better and for the worse worldwide throughout this century and beyond.
