War seems to be a part of life everyone wants to end. But no one really ever wants to die or feel pain, or pay taxes either. These are just natural parts of life. Just like war. It's a test of who can dominate, who has more power. Something that is the consequence of people not being able to realize that we are all equal. Even ants have wars. They are just like us primates. Is there a possibility that one day war may end. We may all realize we are the same people fighting for nothing really, but a feeling. A feeling of power. I personally think the only way war may end will be the end of us. What do you think?

3% of the world are psychopaths/sociopaths (antisocial personality disorder) therefore there will also be that desire, that ambition to have control and power over everyone else and it's the self-centred manipulators with no conscience who remain at the top of the pyramid.

There will always be war from the smallest of issues to the biggest of issues. I think you are right as long as we exist war will exist, there is just no stopping it. We have to feel power because we feel anger and jealousy, we feel resentment and so we have to take that and fuel it, steam it until we feel the power we so want again.
The only way it will stop is if we stop wanting or needing power, and that's not going to happen.

War has always been, since the creation of man...war will always be, as long as man exists. For the first time in the history of man, does man posses the power to annihilate man from the planet...so war may one day come to an end...but so will humanity.

Wars are caused exactly by greed, need of power to rule over everything, some people always want more than they have already been given. Wars wouldn't be possible if there was no one to listen to some highly stated person who tells them what to do, but that's how the system is built to control everything, so...to stop the wars system has to be changed, but there will never be a perfect system.
