Another ancient saying ‘rediscovered’ in today’s news?
If interested, Compare aa ancient saying to today’s Chicago Tribune article, Overthinking it? Your brain makes better decisions when it is on autopilot, expert says.
Then decide, if the advice is a new discovery or just another affirmation of King Solomon wisdom writings of 3000 years ago.
King Solomon
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 1:9 Excerpt
The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be,…. The thing that has been seen and heard is no other than what shall be seen and heard again; so that what is now seen and heard is only what has been seen and heard before; it is but the same thing over again; and that is the reason why the eye and ear are never satisfied; the same objects, as the visible heavens and earth, and all therein, which have been from the beginning, these are they which shall be, and there is nothing else to be seen and heard, and enjoyed; (Source HERE)
You Decide

What’s My Point Questions?
When will we wise up and realize that every new generation keeps repeating the same folly of the past generations over and over, again and again?
When will we wise up and think before we make bad decisions or actions to repeat the folly rather than wisdom learned from the past?
When and how will we teach wisdom to our children to prevent them from “rediscovering” by repeating the same follies, or learning to emulate the wise decisions discovered in the past?

The advice is generally good. I just found myself bemused and somewhat irked by one part of the article.
Do you know of any mentoring programs specifically for men that some women are not busily trying to destroy. The sex obsessed and jealous can’t even leave the Boy Scouts in peace.

The way I read the boy scout invitation issue is they want the girls to join them because of declining membership in the boy scouts.
In my opinion, the reason the boy scouts have declining membership is because parents do not want homosexual leaders to possibly exert their influence and beliefs on boys when they are at an impressionable age in life..
So political correctness over homosexuality has reduced the popularity of the organization.
Sad, when the result of Political Equal Rights is there will be less young boys memorizing the boy scout oath from memory.
On my honor, I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout law ,in this link..
