So i decided to make this thread becuz me and my friend were arguing i said that becuz people will always have conflicting goals World Peace could never be achieved. He on the other hand disagrees.
Also do you think War is needed to substain the human population?

As long as individuality exists, there will never be 'true' peace,

the only way to have world peace, is for people to be free, and to do it on their own will.

Not by people makeing laws and stuff.

True world peace(everywhere across the globe) could never be achieved because people are just to selfish.

Now through people coming to understand each other while being free, the world could be in peace(aka no wars).

But no matter what greed and selfishness will always exist to disrupt that peace.

Yah I believe in Jiraiya's words and understand that there will come a time when people will have respect and love for each other. ;) You should too otherwise, you'll just become like Obito and Madara who lie in darkness. :cool:

meaning as long as we(human) have the ability to choose there can not be peace... or every human on earth could become Val cons and just dump our emotions. no hate greed no nothing

at the cost of love.. worth it

Yes maybe in the short term if the world's major powers are generous enough to hand out the tailed beasts like Hashirama did.

No, only an idiot would believe such a thing. As long as there is freedom people will do what they want and there will never be true peace, why? cause everyone is different, and they will also have different views on what peace truly is. Ever played assassins creed? The templars and assassins have been fighting over this topic for thousands of years. :cool:

As long as this concept of self image, self worth and individuality exists, peace cannot.

"Where there's a will, there's a way." The key is love and compassion, tolerance and empathy. When we stop thinking in terms of our "fellow citizens/americans" and start thinking in terms of our "fellow humans" that is when we can set aside our trivial differences and set our sights on overcoming the different obstacles we have to face.

Peace is easily obtainable, but that peace would involve mass control of the populace and the removal of our individuality, our freedom and our rights.

Not worth it.

No, world peace will never be achieved. Conflict is man's nature. Pain and suffering is inevitable in this world.

Yea, when I am the last person alive. Even then I'll have arguments with myself when I develop multiple personality disorder.
