Historical Matters

It matters, not just politically and economically, but also psychologically and scientifically and culturally and ecologically and educationally, whether your history of American development only seldom begins before Columbus Day, and inevitably ends with flag waving on Independence Day, or if American loyalty to and for healthy development began way back in pre-history, when Father SunYang gave birth to YinMother Earth. Who lies within and who and what and when and where and why remain without your sense of Earth-patriotic identity depends on when and where and why you start your own evolving history, and where you are OK about our creation story ending.
