You would have thought that WW2 would have taught Europe something....guess not.

It did.

It taught them not to fight.

It also pretty much depleted their warrior genes.

Each generation has to be taught all over again and it hasn't happened.

It did teach them something. It taught them that "intolerance" is the worst crime ever!

They simply learned the wrong lesson from World War II.

It taught a generation or two, but when history is not taught (you know the gig) it is doomed to be repeated. Those European kids were taught crap, knew nothing of the Berlin wall, or what the U.S. did to save their bums. The church is not strong any longer, though it is coming back. (evangelical, not mainline is there)

That generation is almost all dead. It’s too late.
