I have ZERO resposibility for my ancestors. I wasn't there -- I shouldn't pay for their misdeeds (nor should anyone else for theirs). I have to be the best person I can be in this life, and help correct things that are wrong as I see them. An example would be the German people -- I hold them in no way responsible foer the atrocities of World War II -- it's simply not fair...

I agree with textfriendly, the past should stay in the past where it belongs. There is waaayyy too much going on today in the world, to worry about what happened yesterday. It can't be changed, so we must just leave it. This I know is not easy for the people who lived it though, and I realize that but nothing can be solved by opening old wounds.
