Do you ever see something that makes you really fear for the future? We all know that history is written by the victors. We all know that there are some bad guys who were written up as good guys. We know that some dark times get rewritten as not-so-bad times or erased altogether.

The history of Ireland was written by the priests but there was a whole lot of civilization and culture there before that, much of it stamped out due to the religious beliefs of the writers. The same is true for the United States – settlers who were able to write created their own version and documentation of the history of our continent that left out the stories of the original occupants.
