How can everyone work together to bring about world peace?

It does not even have to be a military, a strong group in powers which upholds and teachs strong rules for respect and tolerance can hold their ground. I used to run such a group 275 teenagers in a town of 4,444 ... We mad a difference so much so we ran three hate groups out of town, and caused 2 major gangs to do a peace truce... all with non violance and strength of value. We gave the rest of the townspeople the strength and courage of not to give in... Strength in all forms is a good deterent, and any group of people who are together and show this strength can make a difference. Best thing is our group never resorted to violance in anything we did.

Most violance stems out of people being and feeling insecure and unsafe.. Most Gangs do not even want to be violantly killing eachother or fighting.. they would rather have peace... and just wish their rules to be respected and honors. If you instill high values or respect and honor for everyone. and if you see something no one is getting hurt by it but it's differently and pay no mind to it you'll be fine. But if everyone bands together and speaks out again violance being wrong, disrespect being wrong there is quote I do not know who had originally said it but it says "If the People Lead, the Leaders will follow" and that is exactly what we saw going on in our town for the time our group ran... I would restart that group but for now, I am busy trying to get on my own to feet so my activism is limited to the internet for now. Yes, I agree the UN is not doing its job as well is could be doing... I think the other thing Johnson was trying to start and push through would have been better... Take care!

" Most violence stems out of people being and feeling insecure and unsafe." This simply is not a true statement. Most violence stems from a criminal predator feeling secure, safe, and sure he can get away with his criminal act. You need to meet some actual people who have been and/or are violent. However, do not do so without someone who can provide you some protection. I promise you are in sincere danger of becoming some criminal's victim. Do you really think most victim's of violence made their perpetrators feel insecure and unsafe? Are you blaming the victim? You may think you are not, but you are when you relieve the violent criminal of responsibility by saying he has a problem of being insecure and unsafe. I have no problem believing violent people tell naive people the reason they are violent is because they feel insecure and unsafe, but it is BS. Here is the quote I cut and pasted from your response again," Most violance stems out of people being and feeling insecure and unsafe." Your statement is true only when applied to society as a whole as a response to violent criminals. Check out the figures on how many people society harms through its police compared to how many people criminals harm. You will find the criminals who harm people when they feel they are secure and safe to do so cause much more violence than the police who are protecting a society that rightly does feel insecure and unsafe. In short, you are confusing the decent people of society as a whole who have good reason to feel insecure and unsafe with the violent criminals who cause the insecurity and lack of safety.

Yes, Yes, Yes.. Values is a major key.. and Self healing, and healing others as well... Helping build security and peace within oneself and others... I agree... Peace, and thanks for responding!

BY GEORGE I THINK THIS ONE'S ACTUALLY GOT IT! lmao But all the responces I've seen here are great :) and thanks for hipping me to this site Dna :)

Thanks for joining us Firehorse! These people are absolutely wonderful, and It is nice to see so many responces to this thread. It gives us all hope to help improve the lives if the world and our future, and our childrens future. - DNatureofDTrain

There is always going to be arguements, and disagreements, but everyone can work hard to keep it from escalation back to fighting... Learn to step back, disagree, and give another space... Agree to revisit the issue after both sides have calmed down... There is also many types of intermediation programs... out there to help people peacefully resolve conflicts. - DNatureofDTrain

Yes, and another good way is doing RAK... Random Acts of Kindness also help... and educating eachother - DNatureofDTrain

Yes, Not only signing pacts, Agreements, and Treaties.. But Keeping this pacts. :) - DNatureofDTrain

Well, I disagree with the do nothing part, I feel if we want to be saved we need to work hard to try to save ourselves, as then the others will take noticed and see that we are not happy in our misery, and some may come save us! Thanks for your opinion and responce! - DNatureofDTrain

I'm just being religious. We really don't need to worry about doing something G-d has promised will happen. Its his work not mine, other than ME doing what I am commanded to do.

Things can and will change but it is up to people if they want to do so. In the past history there has been cycles of Peace and War. There will always be the cycles.. But we can learn to Bring Balance to both.... And for those who feel they can not make a difference... I love the Mosquitos quotes... here is one version."If you think you are to small to make a difference, you have never slept in the same room as a mosquito" - African Proverb"If you think you're too small to be effective, you have never been in bed with a mosquito." -Bette Reese Be the Mosquito! lol ... Peace :) .

I agree, Allow it to spread.. feeds fuel to the fire! :) .. Thank you for responding! - Peace!

I totally agree, but there needs to be a proper balance too. You do not want to flip to the other side of the coin, and be giving to much either and neglecting yourself.. It is hard to find that balance of taking care of yourself and taking care of the world.. Society in my eyes.. as least US society appears to be out balance.. Bring back the Good and the Bad News.. Instead of being Bad News all the time. Take care and Peace! - Thanks for responding :).

Amen - thanks for responding Peace! :)

Hello, And no you are not diverting at all... One reason I started this post was I was hoping people would post their suggestions of how to bring about this great change of world peace :) . Start in the family, then in the commnunity, then in the next community, and allow it to grow like a little ripple in the pond, to expand into ripples of peace, it has to be the small things, that everyone everywhere can do... :) . - Thanks for responding!

I agree, I agree. Many may want to search or look up. "Peace Action" or go to care2.com I have a "RipplesofPeace" group there. I also run "RipplesofPeace" as a yahoogroup as well..... There is all kinds of neat projects going on... One of the neatest World Peace projects I found is this... http://www.earthrepair.net

Another thing is to be very active in a pro peace groups. Does not matter which ones. I know there is a very large politcally active one here in the USA.... http://www.thepeacealliance.org/ And also if you had a choice between a very neat peaceful Graphic and very violant neat one. What would you choose? If you really want to spread the word peace, help make peace sell. Part of the problem is Everyone buys violant games, violant music, watch Violant movies. Now this is not to say to put anything that sells Movies, Games, or music with violance in it out of business.. Cause I would seriously Miss Listening to Ozzy Osbourne! and Miss my action movies. I am saying to help bring Peace into the fads, make it popular, and fun, and Active.... Part of our problem is all our media makes all the Bad guys look better and more awesome then the Good guys.. hmm... I think We should probably bring out some movies and Media to show there really is awesome good, fun, active, and interesting Peace Leaders out there.... :) .. We need more based on Balance.. Where the message of peace in a violant movie over all speaks stronger than the violance and fighting. - DNatureofDTrain

Satan also known as Spiritual Impediment.. Is playing a large part in this. As It is Spiritual impediments, that are stunting peoples growth from growing towards loving one another and they are being seperated by FEARs = False Evidence Appearing Real .... I Agree whether following God is Following Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, Allah, or Universal Love, or Knowledge and greatness, or One self... Being True to yourself, and others, and doing what you can do and are meant to do in this, will make a difference for all of us. Peace to you as well, and as my Tradition says:.. Mother of Mothers, Father of Fathers, Spirit of All Ascended Masters.. Keep and Bless you always. (Means God. :) ) Thank you for responding and Peace!

I agree and feel working together and learning to function together, is a major key to this. Thanks for responding! - Peace!
