The endless repeat of history : Comments

By Graham Young, published 26/4/2022

The rare Cassandras of the world can see exactly what is going to happen, but their curse is that most of the time no one listens to them.

Agree with one condition. That we return to the practice and belief of the original esoteric Christians that flourished before Constantine and his paganizing of Christian belief and practice.

And would require root and branch reform and the jettisoning of some belief and pagan ritual with the full restoration of the do unto others and insomuch as ye do unto the least among you, ye also do unto me.

And those changes would mean that the church would return to core practice and stop being a political organization or a judgemental religious court.

Simply put, Christianity has little to do with belonging to this or that religious order, but by the way one conducts one's life and one's treatment of others and difference!

From my observations the problems with religion began when Christianity & non- Europeans became Westernised !

Poor old Winston was not such a great Cassandra when it come to, how the Allies would defeat the Turks in WWI, just ask the ANZAC's.

There is no doubt that the loss of interest in and belief in Christianty and the study of history in Australia has inhibited people's ability to see what is coming.

Dear Alan,

«Agree with one condition. That we return to the practice and belief of the original esoteric Christians»

The dictionary definition of 'esoteric' is:
"intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialized knowledge or interest."

You can definitely take care of your own soul, but don't expect miracles to happen on a large social scale, not in this dark age anyway which we presently live in.

History will keep repeating itself, endlessly, but you have the capacity to extract yourself from that cycle once you had enough.

A correction to the article:
"another 40 or so years later, the Romans got so angry with the whole Jewish nation that they marched in and marched them all out"

No, the Jews were only expelled from Jerusalem, many continued to live in the rest of Israel for centuries after.

ttbn. What is coming is conflict that sets brother against brother and sons against fathers and another great depression.

Can't pump prime with so much debt and what we do have in the locker, i.e., MSR thorium, cooperative capitalism that makes every one dollar do the work of at least seven and keeps the money in the local economy until exhausted, are never even considered by the idealogical idealogues at the helm! Be they Labor or liberal/conservatives!

Because that would defranchize their conies and bedfellows? And because divide and rule are the only model for the acquistion of power they can consider, given the straight jackets they have locked their tiny mind in!
