History Lessons and Real Life
Posted by Lorren on March 16, 2010
My daughter is finally becoming somewhat more interested in history. Sometimes, it doesn’t seem like she’s really listening, but then she can tell me about some of the details about what the lesson was about, and I realize that she was listening.
History has real life applications. It has been said that those who don’t learn from history are destined to repeat it. I believe that we are reliving history today. We seem to be living through the 1930s, and I fear that with the way America is printing money today, we may go through a situation like the Weimar Republic.
We can also learn other lessons from history, which I wrote about in my article about the abolitionists Harriet Beecher Stowe and John Brown. Stowe acted by writing, Brown acted through murder. Through history, we were able to learn the lesson that it’s wrong to do the wrong thing in order to achieve the right ends.
If only congress could also learn this lesson.

Glad to see you also think the current monetary system is running out of control. Too much money being created to pay for stuff the government is using to buy votes.

Bingo! Perhaps if we become a society that values faith, hope, and charity like Glenn Beck is pushing for, we would be less corrupt as a people and we could clean up America.
