Does human history repeat itself? Yes and no. The seasons of every year are similar to the last, however over time this too has changed. People are born, have children and die. Yet people are also evolving. The sun is getting bigger. Big things hit the earth and change everything. All of life is evolving and changing. If you think that novelty can somehow account for all of this then you are tripping on dream cookies.

History is what humans have documented in writing or by other methods. History is about words recorded ( or as art or symbols that can be interpreted for information about a era of human activity). Otherwise you have pre-history. Pre-history is all that took place before some humans keep some kind of documented record of it. Pre-history and history are not the same thing. Nor shall post history be the same as history because writing will be a obsolete form of commuication.
And so in most schools of thought we have.
Pre-history.
History.
and the potential of post-history.
Please state how the human body has evolved.
I never stated that novelty accounts for everything that has ever happened, that would be as foolish as saything that evolution is caused because of random accidents only. However most science would support the idea that novelty (aka random or unexpected events) could trigger changes and evolutionary adaptations.
Are you sure you support science? Without novelty you have the option of a planned design that is pre-determined - (by what or Who?).
If you wish to flip flop and take a religious perspective then that is fine with me, but not sure wich point you are trying to establish, or where-in your confusion sits.
