War

Posted in Articles

This was sometehing I originally wrote in response to a topic started on a forum I post my writing on, but I liked the way it turned out and thought I would post it up here as well.

 

I do not see any reason to belive that war is unavoidable, oh there certaintly might be a bundle of better ways to handle situations, and it might not be nesscary at least not as a problem solver to anything, but when it comes right down to the nitty gritty people might make endless excuses for why they fight wars. To the very earlisest version of war that usally was for the sake of stealing women and resources, to the later reasons of conquaring and expanding terriory, empire building, to relgious reasons, to mondern day reasons of alledgedly trying to free an opressed people, but none of these are the real reason why wars are faught, they are merely the excuses for the war.

The reason there is war, and the reason why it is unavodiable is becasue the need to fight, is imprinted within people, it is a part of human nature. History I think has shown this time and time again, and there is evidence of it all around, for not only are thier big international global wars, but there are small wars everywhere as well, gang wars, tirbal wars that no one hears or cares about. Wars between different familes, and so on. People need war, not becasue it resolves anything but because it is bred within them.

The Celts often faught among themselves, not becasue there was any pressing need to do so for surivial, though they would reap the rewards of thier victory, but ulitamately they fought each other, for the pure sake of fighting each other. On the surface that might sound barbaric and primitive, but it really has not changed all that much.

No amount of new technology, or knowelge is going to do anything to earese that imprint out of people. The only thing that will end war, is if people go through another evolution somewhere down the lines, and one that does not alter thier physcial features but one that alters thier iternal make up, thier idelogy, thier very insininct.

For even back in the ye old days there were proponets against war, and speakers of peace and those who belived in the possiblity of world peace, that is not a new thought process that the mondern age has born, but yet still, it has not been realized.

Aren't you forgetting something?

You are, after all, talking about something as ignorant and stupid as mankind... Any good idea is doomed from the moment of its inception, or corrupted... Even God must have seemed like a good idea at the time, but just try and keep count with the people who have been murdered in his name... I'm surprised at this entry, although I have noticed before that you are a true believer in world peace. You did call yourself a misanthrope in an old entry, eh?
