While reading some of these posts I realise that in other parts of the
world people must be having much the same discussions as we have here.

With a diffent perspective.

I you check on some of the blogs or chat rooms in other parts of the
world you will find people that say these things.

I love my country above all others...
I think my soldiers are right...
I think we should stop this fighting...
I think that country is evil and my country is good.
I think my country is evil and that country is good.
My government is right.
My government is wrong.
My ruler is good and just.
My ruler is evil and bad.

sounds just like us.

The majority of the opinions I say when I checked was WE NEED TO FIND
PEACE.

I like that majority opinion.

Before we can fix the earth we need PEACE.
Before we can feed the hungry we need PEACE.
Before we can find new ways of living within the systems of earth WE
NEED PEACE.

Come join the Human Race. Wolves, Sheep, Goats and Rats need not apply.
Soldiers turn your weapons in to the blacksmith that he might turn them
into plows.

AB..I already am part of the human race....just kinda lost at times

couldnt agree more AB...it's exhausting...

are you a bit of a peaced out hippy or watt AB heaps of really good
food gets dumped just because the price was not right while people
starve.liven in places were there are no trees in bloody deserts no
water no shelter no compassion auto crats suck.

Not a hippy.

Hippy would say 'peace out man'.

I say peace be with you.

And I work towards it rather then stone in it.

My humanity is constantly kicking me up the butt.

um i just seem to get knocked on mine !!!

damn i am a pain in my ass!!!

Maybe you are sitting on a gobstopper Alex

So butt pains are part of being human???

Or is it humanity bites??

HUman(Higher Universal man) Yes, I think it is possible to be peaceful and do good, and I think it will happen some day.I think God actually lives inside each one of us ,and is having a H U man experience, while at the same time we are having an interaction with God. If you catch yourself talking to your self, I really think you are having a conversation with God, who actually lives inside you, and me and others. You do not need a book to tell you what is right and wrong, God who is inside us tells us, no guess work there. do unto others as you want them to do to you. you automatically know that is right. I think God lives in all the animals ,too. that is probably why ,the native Americans, said: brother bear, brother buffalo,etc. Since God is in you, You are never alone. I think we are here to get experience and knowledge, before we graduate to the next step.(die and become invisible) I think just this body dies , that we are sort of trapped in for now, but you still keep living on.(smiles) that is how I think at the present time, might think different later.

I agree AB. What does war prove?

"So butt pains are part of being human???

well, I cant speak for anybody else, Jesse, but I can assure you I only bite when you want me too (and WHERE you want me to also)

PEACE!!!

I am a blacksmith and I am ready willing and able to beat weapons into plowshares, their's first then mine. Think back to your high school history classes can you recall any extended perod in recorded history that was without a war? You would think that we would have learned by now. You are right AB we cannot address other problems while we are engrossed in killing each other. Yet we, and by we I mean mankind as a whole, seem incapable of changing that.
