For most of us we can probably comprehend the concept of the title but for some, let’s just say that history always has a way of coming back, some call it “karma” yea that’s right, while others call it retribution. Both interpretations can be relevant especially in the light of recent happenings that started a while ago with the change in weather patterns, a stream of ailments that have no standard cure and last but not least natural disaster of unprecedented proportions. Now it may seem hard to link history with these modern day marvels, but if one should read the most popular history book which we call the Holy Bible and try to understand instead of just cramming verses and scriptures we would see that Pharaoh of then is no different than the governments from today. Before you kindle your words to rebuke my article research and see what EGYPT was like unto back in those days, now the superpowers that be of this day listened not to the warnings of simple men of our time just as Moses warned Pharaoh that if we continue in the same vein as like unto that of our predecessors , squandering resources, bending laws of nature making laws to suit and fulfill our own greed disregarding the natural order of things and doing as we want instead of what we ought to, these things would eventuate and become reality instead of just predictions on paper, based on research and findings. Now many may argue to say that those times were different to these now, but on the other hand many would disagree, the injustice meted out to the people under captivity then differs not from those meted out to us in today’s societies, it‘s just a case of same game different players and different arenas, but the rules remain the same. How long will the governments of today deceive themselves to think that they can always come up with legislations and policies to combat the inevitable e.g. we call summits and meetings of heads of state to talk on emission cuts and a greenhouse gases same as in the case of our old pal Pharaoh who called the magicians to deal with the problems of frogs, instead of getting rid of the problem the made more frogs to show they too can do it, foolish wasn’t it? So in the same vein you fly across continents and add more carbon monoxide then sit and talk about cutting its emissions, and deliberate on several things yet still no common ground can be reached, maybe it’s because no one wants to bend to do the right but industrialization and modernization keeps us doing wrong (how wise are we to do evil and foolish to hearken unto good) , I wonder do such acts have anything in common, you tell me. But if you choose inquire, feel free to look it up for yourselves and whilst you’re at it make some reference to the book of EZEKIEL Chapter 20. But hey you don’t have to take my word for it.

now this is an interesting analogy, now i must say that there is much relevance to the current situation if u look with your mind's eye and not your emotions.
