You are a parrot and don't know it. How many things have you learned that you personally have not internalized or investigated. Have you asked yourself 'what am I on this planet for' 'do I want to go on living a totally selfish indulging life' 'is this all there is to life'
If you haven't asked these questions of yourself you haven't grown up to the full stature of a man that you could be. Until then, learn from others that is what history is for.
2 Timothy read the following and see if you see yourself there.
Chapter 3
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
