The lessons of the past are ignored and obliterated in a contemporary antagonism known as the generation gap.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Each generation has a backlash against the generation before.
Whole generations have forgotten history.
The 'We Have Overcome' generation has run out of intellectual creativity but refuses to leave the political stage.
God knows why nobody ever learns from the preceding generation - but they don't.
Times change. Every generation has a new set of problems. Human nature is unmoved.
While the older generation is content to sit around and critique culture, that culture is moving beyond them. At some point the traditional church and all of the expressions of that church will become essentially irrelevant.
The history of the world shows that peoples and societies do not have to pass through a fixed series of stages in the course of development.
Man seems to insist on ignoring the lessons available from history.
The consequences of a lack of new knowledge is decades of stagnation: the next generation will be poorer than this one.
There is not that much of a generation gap these days.
