14. You nailed it.
There is a cause for bad history to repeat itself and it has everything to do with human frailty and vices.

As long as greed, avarice, and selfishness are part of the average human's make-up, we can continue to see these disastrous choices being made. Humans truly are flawed.

We thought religion might save us. But it made matters worse, since people enjoyed "listening", but when the "doing" became inconvenient, we go back to our evil ways. Not to mention the host of wars and murders perpetrated in the name of god.

United Nations, a noble idea, then bastardized into insignificance.

Nope, a leopard can't change it's spots and neither can we....

There is no advancement is civilization.

It's a myth.
