While we cannot live in the past, there are lessons to be learned from it. We often learn by repitition (like playing guitar), but not by repeating mistakes. Somewhere between the 'new and popular' and 'old and romantic' lies the sweet spot. Religious dogma, like science, cannot remain stagnant. Reality is in a never ending state of flux, and the only thing constant is change. Often the greatest change comes from unpredictictable random error. Uncertainty arises in partially observable or stochastic environments, as well as due to ignorance, or both. Our ability to adjust to that change and make choices, each from our own unique observational perspective, will determine the outcome of our personal and collective future.
