Ancient Skepticism
started as a reaction to stoicism (stoics were Greko-Roman philosophers from the 4th century) The stoics were extreme rationalists, their gods name was Logos (which means reason), stoics believed their god was made of fire and that all human beings possessed a spark of this god allowing them to reason out all the important truths in life by looking inward to their divinity.
Skeptics aim in life is happiness, attained through understanding the universe and controlling our subjective reaction to life.
