What goes around keeps going round, and round, and round...

History is so interesting. From the very beginning, it is about one group of people finding the absolute right way to live, and imposing it on everyone else they can. Most couch their conquest in religion, while consuming the wealth and power of their enemies. Sumerians are conquered by Akkadians, who fall to the Hittites, who are vanquished by the mysterious "sea people", and the Babylonians rise, full of righteousness. Ah, there's the rub. Righteousness. We are still steeping it today, in this enlightened age, because there are still people who know the only right way to live, and claim their knowledge comes directly from the Deity. Man, it is really getting old, people! Live and let live! And get a life, you righteous creeps! There, I feel better.
