Paine states that mankind was originally at a state of equality and the subsequent appearance of all distinctions between human beings have to been brought about by an unnatural circumstance. This distinction between people is "not one of heaven".

Pain believes that men have committed a serious mistake when deciding to have someone other than God to govern them. In the past, a person worthy of certain honors would be named as ruler. From them on, his descendants were expected to inherit the ruler's power. This is a practice that has been going on until today. However, Paine considers this to be a mistaken practice, as no person deserves any sort of honors that belonged to his descendants.

Here’s what I would say.

“I agree with this statement because it is true. Those who do not learn history won’t know how things happened or who or what was affected. Therefore they are “destined” to repeat. You cannot become better at something without knowing how you failed or succeeded the last time. By understanding our past faults, we are able to connect the dots, so to speak, and create a better future for ourselves and future generations.”
