[QUOTE=PoloXGS;19095455]I'm afraid not, for many reasons really. One reason I understand is that it helps maintain economies and gives way for technological advancement, something this species is dependant on. So it probably wouldn't happen, unless we all start trading of course.
If Britain had stuff to trade...[/QUOTE]
War has always taxed economies. During wars money's being diverted from welfare to... malfare. Naturally that doesn't help the economy.
edit: Apparently there's an archaic word "wofare" that's exactly what I'm looking for
Anyone with a mind will know world peace will not exist so long as there are humans on the planet

Fuck yeah, Fallout 3 :cheers:

No, it's impossible.
I just voted yes but I meant to vote no
[QUOTE=Ibutsu;19095396]Only when we start galactic conflicts and humanity needs to stand together as one.[/QUOTE]
Tell that to GDI.
Word peace is impossible. There is always one douche bag waiting to strike us when nothing bad is happening.
[QUOTE=Aman V;19094762]It will not happen. As long as there are 2 humans left on this planet they will fight.[/QUOTE]
Almost correct, but your point is valid.
World peace is a huge impossibility. People love to fight each other.
everyone will never be able to see eye to eye
[QUOTE=StephenOrlov;19094734]
An Extra-Terrestrial, or aliens, landing and introducing themselves, either with violence or bearing peace. However far fetched this may seem, the pressure of an Alien presence would force the humans into an alliance. And if the aliens do attack and we do make one human union, does that count as world peace?
The end of humanity will also be the beginning of world peace. However grim this may be, it's another option to world peace.
Whether any of these come true, or if humanity does end, is not up to us to decide. Until then, Merry Christmas, and have a happy new years everyone.
**Note: There are a lot of opinions here.[/QUOTE]
I can see that. "Ok the aliens have already banded together, otherwise they wouldn't be over here. Maybe we should do the same thing to be able to stand a chance."
Until another species on the planet evolves sentience. Killing is nature, it's natural. Carnivores, Omnivores, hell even Herbivores. A plant is "Alive" and it's being consumed.
lol wait i watched watchmen
so aliens are totally a viable means of world peace
so its all good
Will never happen, ever.
One Nation
One Leader
One Religion
Only then can world peace be achieved.
I won't see it in my life time, that's for sure.

No, then you'll just have a huge unbalance of power.
Definetly not
StephenOrlov, shut your fucking pie hole. Go fly the Wright flyer across the Himalayas and don't post any shit here unless it's post card from Lukla. Douche
Doubt it.

-I think capitalism is the answer to our troubles. Though it may have it's flaws, it's arguably, the best form of government (besides a monarchy with a good leader)

Except for the fact that it's not a government-form.
And just thinking that capitalism is the cause of human nature is naive, really, really naive.
Sadly enough, world peace is not achievable, perhaps between countries but there will always be people fighting eachother because of various reasons.
How can, let's say, monkeys live in total peace and freedom?
How did they do it?! They solve conflicts face to face beating. Then they eat, so they don't die just as of yet, and do funny looking stuff.
Isn't that basically the 'Ideal Life' ?
because they don't care
[QUOTE=heathendevil;19102758]because they don't care[/QUOTE]
Then why do we care?
So long as there are 2 people left on the planet, SOMEONE's gonna want SOMEONE dead. -Sniper.

Do they really live in total peace and freedom?
Monkeys may look like they live in peace, but have you ever talked to a chimp without a gorilla hanging around?
I have, and the opression they face is disgusting.
They are not entitled to throw their poop, they must savour it, for the gorillas can not poop themself.
Is it really freedom, when you can not poop and throw your dung at eachother?
My answer is no.
One can not achieve freedom without the right to throw poo, and monkeys have not that freedom.
Do they really live in peace?
A baboon can not walk around in the jungle without harassment from the chimps, they are deemed sub-monkey, a baboon can not find a job as easily as a gorilla or a chimp, nor can they found a job as easy as a monkey.
A baboon may have his freedom, for he is entitled to throw his poo at other baboons, but there is no peace for a baboon, no.
A baboon may never live in peace, for as long as there are monkeys there will be hate, and hate is the mortal enemy of peace.
Unfortunately it's in human nature to desire more. If there was world peace nobody would stop a person from taking more until we had to kill him, we will end up back at square one.
