Even if, in realising their mission, they might and will almost certainly repeat some of the follies, mistakes and bad and terrible things which we are fated to do.  Yes, it will be humans who are seemingly 'not learning from the history of past humans', but it will be different generations of humans doing so.  We also have to learn from history how to meet and surmount the challenges and obstacles.  Which making our path through life, under different internal and external environmental conditions,  have presented us with.  We, like our ancestors, have the accumulated knowledge and ability which are coded into our genetic makeup, and is being expanded upon by succeeding generations.   Our power to avoid the costly 'mistakes' like wars and other human-induced catastrophes are limited.   And, in the case of wars, while some people will indeed be committed to developing a 'culture of no-wars.'  The developers and purveyors of t

The concept of us humans being able to  experience   a state of  paradise , or  Jannah , after our motal bodies perish, in the form of what we could perceive of as the ' ultimate garden. '   Is nothing short of a massive illusion arising from an equally massive self-deception. As Judy Judy would say; 'it aint going to happen.' However attractive it might be for some people.  There is no evidence or probability of it, of the departed gathering in an exotic garden, and living forever, while consuming the sensual pleasures of the Earth, ever having happened.   Nor being likely to be realised at sometime in the future.  Which is probably why the emphasis is also placed on 'paradise' or 'Jennah' being a state yet to be acquired by humans.  Meaning that us humans can only navigate our way there, by first dying.  And then, only providing we have, of course, lived our lives on the Earth according to the manner prescribed by the self-pro

Or whether we are humans who, unlike other species of animals that continue to record and pass on knowledge non-verbally to their descendants.   Use the spoken and written language to record and pass on the history of our experiences on and around Planet Earth. Well, so much for the ober dictum aspect of this post, which I might expand on another occasion and time. Back to the matter of, what we can learn from 'history.' Yes, what we have to learn from history is that we are fated to repeat it.  Which, when you think of it, is not surprising, since the present is a repetition of the past.  The our present is what will make the history of future generations, but we do not see it, our present living, as the making their future.  Even though, in their turn, they will or might perceive it as such, but still want, still be motivated to live it according to their aspirations and inclinations.  To be continued!
