Why do I keep seeing the same questions on yahoo philosophy?

Now, don't take it offensively or anything. It's always nice to see bright minds questioning the aspects of life and all, but what is the dealio with the halt in social progress? I mean, when are we going to get a new renaissance period or a new enlightenment period where we start thinking differently and coming up with new ideas? Are we ever going to branch out into a new form of "revolutionary" thinking, or has that well been tapped? When will originality make a comeback? Because if not, we're looking at a very dull and absurd future.
