"THE DEAD PAST"

The civilizations of the past have been used as the foundation of the civilization
of today. Because of this, the world keeps looking toward the past for guidance.
Too many people are following the past. In the new space age, this is dangerous.
The past is DEAD and those who are following the past are doomed to die and
be like the past.

It is no accident that those who die are said to have passed since those who have PASSED are PAST.
