All Blacks show our blinkered view of history

The All Blacks had a security breach on their recent trip to England. Somebody read their motivational message when they inadvertently left the door to their team room open.

It went along the lines of: “We are the most successful sports team in the history of the world.”

For me, the “history of the world” was the most telling bit. It shows how disconnected 21st century life has become. We mock creationists for believing the world was created 6,000 years ago, yet we live our lives acting and believing everything of relevance has only happened within the past century. We have ridiculous statements like “Nothing is certain but death and taxes”, without realising nearly all taxation started less than a century ago and is only needed to try and pay the unpayable, ie societal commitments to private central bankers as these bankers have monopolised the production of money.
