Q: Although you think your ideas are well intentioned or might be well intentioned, you are way off base. R: This is an incomplete thought. What is the base? The status quo of more and more nations getting nuclear weapons? Continuing wars and acts of terrorism? What is your solution, if any?
Q: What is your education, R: How does that matter about anything?
Q: have you travelled around the world since 911 or before ? I mean how many countries have you, yourself been in,..... R: How does the numbers of countries I have lived in or travelled count for anything?
Q: You would not be writing what you are if you did not have freedom to do so;
R: Ok, so what is your point? Shouldn’t all people of the world have the same freedom? Isn’t freedom from war and terrorism (and hunger and poverty and disease) good freedoms too?
Q: and, guaranteed, a "police state will not serve the public well".
R: You live in a policed state already! Would a world without police serve the public? Without police, wouldn’t the biggest drug lord with the most weapons then rule? And since “a police state will not serve the public” and since “we are already living in policed states (and nations)”, does this not mean that our governments are not serving us well? Are these governments acting to end wars and solving the problems of world hunger, poverty, and disease? Think outside the nationalism boxes! There are no lines drawn on the Earth unless they are superimposed onto maps! Be human first!!
Q: You are receiving this from a person that has never done drugs or does no drinking --
R: Bravo! But again, what is your point?
Q: I see life has many challenges, each starting with individuals willing to accept responsibility for themselves. R: How is taking personal responsibility going to end war or solve any social problems? How about you take on the challenge of solving worldwide problems? Opps, not your job?
Q: I doubt you have done much traveling or reading other than in your own make believe world. R: More unfounded assumptions. Again, if you can’t add to the plan it is apparent that your intent is only to attack the presenter. Not a very constructive use of your time.
Q: maybe what you see on TV; and, are you one of the persons waiting for a handout from the government or think that government can solve all problems. R: You make lots of assumptions without any facts.
Q: Ask yourself this question -- What happens to the fleas when the dog dies... ( let us say the dog is government you propose ) R: There cannot be an end to war (and have “Peace on Earth”) until we agree that continuing to have wars is very harmful to the survival of the human race and your dog too. Agreements can be made into laws and laws can be effective if enforced. Worldwide laws against war are needed if you want Peace on Earth!
Q: You need a real job and not some "fantasy of hell-- your idea of a peaceful world.
R: Why do I need to “get a job”? I am retired. Go in peace… until the world ends. And do learn to write without including a bunch of nonsense statements and unfounded assumptions.
Q: You do have a mother and a father, do you love them... start there.
R: Ok, try attacking the plan not the person. Maybe then will you make some points (that you can add to the number of places you have travelled and how many years of formal education you have had, if any). Or better yet, why don’t you create a plan to solve some of the world’s problems. Are you a scientist? How much food and water per day is needed for each person on this planet to live? How can the available food and water supply be distributed so everyone gets what they need every day? If not enough food and water is available, how can production be increased to get what is needed? If population growth is a problem, how can population growth be slowed or controlled without wars and disease? Since ending wars will result in job lose, how can we retool to build plows and spacecraft instead of tanks and missiles?
Oh, not your problem? Ok, so go on traveling and get more years of education or you can just sit back and watch the world distroy itself on your TV. Nothing will change unless you make it so!
Q: If you change yourself into a positive thinking person, you will do more good that all what you talk about support......... R: Support what? A world without war? Thinking positively about solving the major problems confronting the human race? Do you have a better plan?
Q: Best wishes but do look around and travel... around.... and talk to different groups of people... of all walks of life, not just people you are now comfortable with.
R: Communicating with you is of no benefit as you have not made any positive contribution. If you have a better plan, let's hear it.
Q: The news media is controlled by a few people... R: Given the number of people in the world, the whole world is controlled by a few people! Get over it. Or change it.
Q: so if you are getting your ideas from your own kind or the media... R: What is my own kind of stereotype? Everything I know and don’t know is on the Internet (Do you know that media?).
Q: good luck on hitting a brick wall long term. R: Yes, I too have a dream… I dream of a world without war. A world that can solve problems for everyone’s good. I dream that the human race can survive with peace and harmony forever! That we can travel to the far reaches of space. Yes, these are dreams, however It is certain that nothing changes without positive effort. Dream the impossible dream and maybe the dream will come true. In the mean time, join the World Peace Political Party and make these dreams come true!
Q: You see no one likes war.... R:Not liking and doing something about it are too different things. Saying “Peace On Earth” will not make it happen!
Q: but .... you do have to stand for what you believe... if you do not believe in anything,
R:More assumptions about believes. I believe that the world would be a much better place without war. And not only is this a belief but now there is a plan to do something about it. And I support that plan. Just complaining about “big” (whatever that means) government is not doing anything about it. Yes, the government that governs the least is ideal, however how do you want to create that situation? And no government, no laws, and no police is not an acceptable solution. Are you going to go out tonight and help your neighbors being attacked by a bunch of druggies?
Q: stand with those people and in line and wait for "chicken little " to fall from the sky....
R:It won’t be “chicken little” but nuclear fallout! Think about that or just stand in a line and wait for it to happen!
Q: or big government to save you from "Hell"/.
R:Again, what would life be without government. Who would control things? Government represents agreements or laws between people however we have only evolved so far that our governments are only nation states. Do try to think outside that national box of yours.
Q: You see what you want to see, not what is reality.
R:What is there not to see: Wars are real. Acts of terrorism is real. Poverty, hunger, and disease in the world is real. Is that not the reality of this world? You should do more than travel but actually live in the slums and hot spots of the world and then maybe you will be willing to make a difference not just noise!
You have judged the plan for World Peace thru World Law as “not what is reality”, a “chicken little dream”, and “hitting a brick wall long term”… ok that is your entitled opinion. Now honestly ask yourself: “What is going to happen to the human race in the future if the problems of the world are not solved”? Can you (and the human race) live with that answer?
