Replying to Avatar VOLKER - Voice Of Logic Knowledge Experience & Responsibility

GM. Today, the state of humanity inspired this little thought. Hope it's not too heavy for a Sunday morning:

Humanity will never learn from its mistakes. Because in order to learn from history, you'd have to trust those who tell it. Some authority of history. But there are many who claim to be authority of history. How do you know who to trust, and who to avoid? You'll only find out by a long and painful process called, the school of life. That process involves self critique, a character trait that takes a long time to develop. And when you finally get to the point where you know, with some confidence, whose stories to trust and whise not to, you are yourself and old guy, and nobody trusts you.

Knowledge is the integral of learning over time. The more learning and the more time, the more knowledge. Keep going!

It's hard to know whether something that someone shared, is reliable. You can't really verify everything. But it gets easier to discern once you have accumulated a lot of experience.
