POLL: The best way to achieve world peace

I am an advocate of world peace.

Only with peace, can there be an end to war.

The problem the world has is that it is infested with Islamic Terrorists, who hate peace and want their Caliphate with Sharia Law.

There can be no peace with such folks, which leads me to the conclusion that the ONLY way to achieve peace is to defeat the Islamic Terrorists, but who should we start with?

 

There will never be world peace people are to absorbed with their own desires to accommodate others.

That being said if you want to get closer to world peace get rid of all religions and inequality politically and monetarily.

 

There will never be world peace; people are too ignorant. Even if you took away guns and weapons, people will kill each other with stones and spears; cave men archaeology proves this. People don't understand not to make things big deals that don't need to be, to get along.

His choices on the poll would not solve the problem. If any country in the world could be wiped out that would make the world a better place, it would either be the US or China. As a group, ISIS, MS-13, Los Zetas, the Sinala Cartel, or the Gulf Cartel.

 

Yep, War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery and (in this case particularly) Ignorance is Strength

I wondered how long it would take

The problem is that they're not ALL Internet Trolls. In fact, quite a few have come out from under the bridge lately.

You want peace in the ME? Have the CIA send in a Gandhi to the Palestinians. A charismatic leader who will totally and absolutely eschew violence in any way or form. Let world opinion decide who is thrice armed by nothing but the Justice of their cause.

 

mandate religious freedom for all and make it a crime to force "religion" or "no religion" on another.... can't be peace when people can't believe what they want to believe

you poll made no sense btw, is that really the top four options for world peace you came up with?


.

 

Amen,

 

World peace is only possible with a change in consciousness, from our ego consciousness, to a consciousness that is able to transcend the ego. For it is the ego, the self image, that is the creator of all sin, all immorality, which includes war. The reason the world is divided is because the each of us is divided inwardly, ego consciousness if one of inner turmoil and conflict, which is reflected outwardly as society.

There was perhaps a time in prehistory where man wasn't killing his neighbors, to take what they have, but then self awareness, the ego arose, and its been hell on earth since that time. So, peace is not possible without a change in human consciousness. Anything who thinks you can force peace is delusional. Anyone who thinks a world of ego driven people can ever be at peace, is also delusional, and you have no understanding of what man is, nor any understanding of you own consciousness. We do not teach self knowledge in the educational process, when it should be one of the most important areas of study and learning.

 

Well, for starters we might try making a rule about polls and how they need to contain actual answers instead of just agenda supporting crap.

After that we need to feed Israel to the Arabs as a peace offering.

 

I am also an advocate for world peace. I think the best way to accomplish that is to liberate the U.S. from Israel.

 

Crass and irrelevant, dear chap.

Who is "we"?? LOL, cos the USA will never do that!

Dream on brother.

 

I know we won't. At least not until we are liberated from Israel. Do I at least have your permission to not like Manischewitz?

 

agreed with your first sentence, then you lost me....

 

You should only have permission to beat yourself in the head, too. Manischewitz is the nectar of the gods, Zeus gave it to Moses when Jochebed had him over for some nice lox and bagels one night. They all stayed up till dawn and got silly with Zeus testing his thunderbolts against Moses staff. That's where the Dead Sea really came from.

 

World peace can't be achieved as long as the haves continue to exploit the have nots.

We are an extremely young and primitive civilization having only been in development for 8,000 years or so. Not even an eyeblink in the history of life on this planet, let alone the universe. It takes time for sapience to mature and overcome its ingrained biological imperatives.

 

I dont see a liberate arabs from Israel.

 

uh, what? Not one of your options is even remotely a route to achieving world piece. Some might be a single step in a marathon, but that doesn't make any of them a route to achieve world peace.

 

Have you ever observed two children with the same father, the same mother, the same environment, the same religion, the same culture, the same nationality and no propaganda teaching them to hate each other? They will fight. Fighting is a survival technique.

If you take two large groups of people that have been brainwashed to hate each other for millennia, they will fight too. Fighting is a survival technique. When that instinct is fostered it thrives very well.

Do you want to know how to achieve world peace? I think the responsibility lies with you. I personally don't think it can ever be accomplished with any strategy. If you think it is a possibility then you are the exact visionary that we need in order to make it happen. Do it. We are all behind you.

 

You cannot defeat terrorism by attacking it, because that will lead to more terror, as you could see happen in Russia (Grozny conflict)
You can only try to reduce emotions as world, because when the opposite - a continues rise in emotions because of terror - is going on, this world will never see world peace.
The problem is that after years of seeing and reading about terror, people mutually cannot see how high their emotional level in mind has risen (all that emotion builds up), so the only thing that the individual can do is to try to not let terror affect their emotion and life even more -> stop watching the images on tv, and stop political discussions about terror, and stop responding to terror by going in the streets by the millions (which is ofcourse not good for world peace and freedom, the massive events as you saw in France)
But people wil ask, we must do something to stop terror (but you can't do anything actively, because it can lead to worser situations, even historical) Terror grows on the responses from populations and governments. You can see what happened in Russia over the last decades, every time the government responded with bombs and military force on parts of Grozny, the terror (reaction to that) increased (the multiple subway bomb attacks in Moscow) And by that people will ask their gov to do even more, and the terror wil not go away. A world of terror will lead to a totalitarian world in the end, because emotions continue to rise (collectively)

If you quit your mutual communications (so many forum threads are very bad for world peace) and more and more people's minds are no longer affected by terror, so their minds are actually liberated from the violent images and terror information) Liberated minds help to end terror (because it has no more influence on people's behaviour) There will ofcourse always be the most radicals that will continue with their terror. So this terror era can take decades. The world has lived with threats of nuclear bombs for decades and survived the cold war.

 

I disagree. For example, each time the Palestinians terrorize us in Israel, we launch a memorable and devastating attack on them. Not only do we manage to exterminate hundreds (sometimes thousands) of terrorists in such attacks (with fewer terrorists, there are less left to terrorize us), but we force surviving terrorists to think twice about terrorizing us again.

Once all terrorists are terminated, Israel can live in peace. We can extend this argument to the world i.e. once we have stopped terror in just a small handful of key countries, the world can move towards peace. For example, a simple but devastating attack on Iran by the USA and Israel can help to improve the prospects of peace in the middle east.

 

Why the (*)(*)(*)(*) to do you want to deprive the world of the most intelligent and the brightest, the people Ho always achieve the most, who always create the most? Ah yes... The (*)(*)(*)(*)ing envy...

 

Good post and very true.

 

Allow each man to purchase whatever weapons he desires, and refrain from spending a cent on defense.

 

World peace is not at all a desirable goal.

 

Actually we devolved. For man lived in egalitarian groups, tribes for most of our history. In that paradigm, the health and well being of the group was of the greatest importance, and the group was cared for, by cooperation and sharing of needed resources. So, this cooperation and sharing is in our genetic makeup, and was needed for our survival. Then civilization arose, and there was no longer such a great need for sharing and cooperation, and no longer was the entire tribe important for the survival of that tribe This led to a society based upon class, the haves and the have nots. And then the social problems began, with cyclical revolutions that featured the have nots rising up and taking and then killing the haves. But as time goes on, the haves once again assume power, and the cycle repeats.

Of course, as we use up resources, and population grows, we will either take one of two paths. We will, through intelligence, see that we must have a resource based economy, without the rich and the poor, but a society that cooperates and shares resources. If the entire world got on board, we would see an end to war, more than likely, for what it would take to get to such a model, cooperation and sharing, would also negate the causes of war. Or, the other path is not cooperation and sharing, but with class division, and more and more people suffering from a lack of resources, and we will continue on with never ending wars, until we finally using high technology, exterminate the human race.

 

Sorry, but tribalism is alive and well in today's civilization. And let us not forget that inter-tribal warfare was rather prevalent throughout history.

What is "nationalism" if not an evolved form of tribalism?
