Yes, I think we would be better off. As a world history teacher, I'd be interested in what made you ask that question!
And yeah, it's easy-peasy to reach 1000!

A thousand points? A piece of cake. Just keep plugging away. Whenever else you really wanted something you kept at it and the day came when you got it right? As far as everyone taking a World History course, absolutely. Ignorance is never the correct answer (no matter what some religions say).

I think it would be better in the "religion" sector, if they studied a good History book. There are many out there (books). Every Theoligian has to be a historian. Prophecy is played out over thousands of years. The writters of the old testament were historians. Jesus was a historian - Before Abraham was -- I am.
But as far as the warring nations are concerned, it would'nt make any difference, - history repeats itself over and over.

Who knows. Some people probably wouldn't take it even if it was free to anyone. If it were required, people would be resentful of having to take it and not pay attention, then you have the everpresent group of people who just don't care.
I can see what you're trying to get at, and in theory, it would probably be good for people to understand people of other cultures and races, but in practicality, I don't think it'd work.

Probably not and yes.
The teaching of history will always be biased, first of all, so you'd have to try to deal with that. Secondly, humanity has showed that it can't learn from its past so many times it's just hopeless. A person is smart, people are stupid.

The guy did some bad acid in the 1970's. he is talking out of his *** because his mouth knows better. The spanish inquisition was the beginning of the hatred. the christians blamed the jews for the black death and accused them of being witches. the jewish people were then put on restrictions on what kind of trade they were allowed to work in. they became merchants, jewelers and bankers. hitler was half jewish himself. after ww1 the german people were suffering from the war reparations they were forced to pay. somebody had to be blamed for the hardships and the jews were to blame in hitler's eyes. he promised the german people new national pride and he gave it to them for a while. prior to 1948 the jews and palestinians were at peace until the creation of the state ofIsraell and they started stealing the land from the palestinian people.

no...because history is manufactured by leaving out most peoples story. and you are close to a 1000...so yes.

No, because by the time the textbook got approved, all that would be left is a sanitized dry boring list of persons, locations, and dates.

Yeah. Depends on the teacher, I guess.
No. I'm not volunteering. I'm too busy.
1,000?? Sure.

Only if some teachers who taught it would not be personally biased.
then yes, it has incredible value.
