No, world peace will never be achieved. Conflict is man's nature. Pain and suffering is inevitable in this world.
War and Conflict isn't neccessarily a bad thing, especially if it is initiated for the right cause. What I'm talking about is for a good cause like peace, happiness and justice. Although I agree with you on how it is a man's nature. That is more than true but some find it difficult to comprehend. Some guys on this thread are right by using Naruto :O
Take Hashirama and Madara's fight for example. Hashirama was the good guy who wanted to protect his dream, his village and the people he loved all for the sake of good and in order to prevent conflicts. But look what happened? His only best friend became his worst enemy and among those to crush all the good Hashirama had intentions for. So he forced himself to fight with his best friend because he knew he had to and it wasn't for anything bad but for the good. Now even after death(as an Edo) he respects Madara and still consides him his friend. That's why he is one of my fave characters. :yeah:
As far as how our world is run, true peace can only exist temporarly after war and suffering, and that's just sad.
I agree with you to an extent. You see we have to think open mindedly about this. There are steps to be taken in order to attain World Peace. First we need a group of people in every country who are trustworthy, sincere, are just and devoted in protecting their home. They would have to rise to the top and have a good interest in politics. Then a democratic system is implemented and they could vote for who becomes leader of that country. They could also begin to influence and encourage the people of their country to do the good things and the benefit they could get out of it.
Once good people are leaders, then they could form an alliance like we see in Naruto or how you have NATO in real life. Hashirama is a good example of something similar which was done. He protected the village from Madara who became a threat in sustaining the peace and happiness that existed among the village.
Haha it seems like most of ya'll agree with me World Peace is a mere dream
No, you are in great despair bro. I thought I told you to not become like Obito and Madara but you didn't listen. It will never be achieved because of people who are careless, imprudent, egoistic, faithless, deluded and arrogant people. You are becoming likely them if you're not already like them. My friend, I urge you to think again and have more faith. Think of Naruto. Look how determined he is and will never give up. He is willing to do anything for the people he loves.
