Lois Lowry wrote a book called The Giver. In that book, the Community is all peaceful. There is no war, no conflict, nothing. It is a utopia. However, there are numerous laws governing everything, from how many children you can raise to how children under the age of seven should wear their coats. There is no feeling, because feelings cause conflict. I would hate to live in such a world. As long as there is feeling and emotion, world peace is impossible.

As long as there is feeling and emotion, world peace is impossible.  i have not read the book, but is that not the most extreme example? i believe world peace is possible, and world peace in an open society is also possible. i believe as the world advances and "flattens", human beings will make progress as well. just look at how far we have come in the last century. eventually, our race will become tolerant enough to allow the idea of world peace to happen. we are approaching the age of ideas , and instead of connecting with people because of silly reasons such as skin color or race, we will begin to connect based on shared ideas. steven ding, always the optimist |
