I totally believe in reincarnation but most Americans don't. I dream sometimes in French and I am in France (in the dream) a long time ago. Everyone there speaks French and I cannot speak that language when awake. \nWhat else but reincarnation explains this?\nGeneral George Patton believed in reincarnation and was able to use his knowledge from past lives to help him win battles in WWII. Many others have believed as well-Benjamin Franklin was one.

(Total IMHO) yes, redundant in that this is not it's first time around, it has been engaged in a cycle of condensing and expanding, outside of time (though I want to say in perpetuity).

It means a story or tale that's been repeated for a long time.

Like almost every myth or legend of this type I am fairly sure that it does have roots in something true, however, like said myth legends there is no doubt that it has been changed and inflated through word of mouth retelling over time.

I think in both directions. \n\nThose who forget the lessons of the past are doomed to repeat them.\n\nThe prophecies given in the past tell about the Days to Come.\n\netc.

Religous music changed A LOT over this period.  Maybe you could focus on the way the music has changed and tie it to the political and cutural facts.

History is dificult only because people make it that way for themselves.  Most people can see no reason for learning history so they start off with a negative attitude towards it.  Most of our great leaders were also good students of history.  The addage that history repeats itself is the one true constant in history, in that if we can learn from our past mistakes and/or successes we can certainly see how to aviod them or how to repeat them.   The one thing that makes the study of history easier is to have a good memory.  Past history does not change learn it once and you will know it for life.  There may be some new information learn about something or another defintion.  I have found in life that people who tend to like history are those with good memories while those who have trouble remembering things tend to find the subject to be boring.  I think that it is a challenging way to improve your memory.  Good luck!

There are many things that are happening since the last 5000 years. there are some societies who think good when they develop and some find it comfortable in th eold surroundings. What matters in the quality of what happen around us rather than the time since when it is happening.

Hmmm. The government saying one thing and doing another... seems that's happened before...

We learn about History so we can know what happened and not repeat the past.\n\nUnfortunately so many are so ignorant of the past that it gets repeated.

Because the human nature is set to act in certain ways which have proven themselves over the time.\n\nIt is the very human nature that shapes and leads the human societies' ; and this coherence and stability sometimes makes us think (in a falsely pessimist way) th history repeats itself and we mankind learn nothing from it.
