Passing

Check mark Parker and Charlie talked about passing down and words in their presentations Parker's was concerned that if we keep passing the same things down that culture/society would stagnate but that events and changes in society helped keep the words changing thus chaos destroys stagnation. Charlie talked about the practice of passing down the Torah orally.

personally i think that no matter if we are an oral or literate culture it cannot truly stagnate. yes it can last for hundreds of years but that's just a blip on the time scale. besides, humans are far too chaotic to ever truly settle into stagnation. words always change in circumstance and humans get too bored to settle
