Philosophize. Why do you want world peace?

Question

Give me deep, logical, rational reasons and I'll give you a flat out 10 points.

Answer 1

This won't be particularly structured, but here are some thoughts...

I hate that people suffer due to the decisions of men in power. Living entails enough pain outside of warfare. There is so much unnecessary hardship on this planet.

Every person deserves to experience love, creation, happiness... and that's not possible in a climate of war, extreme poverty/sickness, etc.

Imagine how the world would flourish if every dollar spent on weaponry went to education or health care or feeding the poor.

I want to see a world in which people are not blind sighted by nationalism and can understand that, in essence, we are all the same. I want to see non-violent resistance acknowledged by authority. I want children in third-world countries to go to school instead of going to war.

I don't think organized violence on a massive scale has any place in our future. We must learn how to survive as one people, not as one nation. For every enemy soldier killed on a battlefield, someone out there will be aggravated by that death and adopt hateful emotions, filling the shoes of that enemy. War doesn't extinguish a problem. There has to be another way. We must turn all the brilliant minds on this planet towards finding that solution.

Answer 2

Well, with world peace, world order and world calm would happen. People would get along and start acting like a human race. People would be using their minds because they wouldn't be worried about many issues going on right now. A lot could be accomplished.

World peace will probably never be achieved. It is impossible to have everyone think on the same level of thinking. People will always think that their way is the right way. They don't want to hear other people's suggestions or theories. They stick to their own. But, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe world peace could happen one day.

Very interesting question though.
