It's time we stopped killing each other

Depending on who you believe, humans have been on this earth for thousands of years. Many say we have been here million of years. Regardless of who is right, we should all agree that it's time for us to stop behaving like spoiled children. How long does it take to grow up anyway? It's time we learned to share. It's time to realize that we don't always have to be right. Maybe the younger generation will do a better job, but than, what are we teaching them? The time to start is now. Do you agree?

Well sadly I think your ideal will never happen. The human race is not a particularly attractive group in my opinion - I have very little respect for it if I'm honest. People are far too greedy, self absorbed, and selfish, and that will never change because it is sadly part of human nature to want more than the next person, and to exert your "superiority". There are very few truly "good" people in this world, which is why when one does come along (like Mother Teresa for example, or Nelson Mandela), everyone has heard of them because they are the exception rather than the norm. Until that changes, I don't think we will ever stop killing each other, especially as mpst wars are cased by religion, and there is still far too much religious bigotry going on in my opinion.

Thanks rosie, but I think there are a lot of good people in the world, people we never hear about. As for, "it will never happen", I think never is a long time. Blessings.

Hi Pose123! I totally agree with you. i hope to live in a world that is free from all greed and killings, from discrimination and selfishness. I hope that we could all learn to co-exist harmoniously without being threatened with evil deeds. Wouldn't it be nice to see people truly sharing and caring genuinely? I guess, this is all what we are all hoping for. Have a nice day and take care!

Yes,this is a serious problems. As we all know,love is power. But we just regard it as a saying,not a rule. Our world is full of prejudice,discrimination and hatry. Wars become an excuse for some countries to spread their hegemony across the world.
