I buy into the idea you have presented. It will be near impossible for wars to be stopped.bishop_444 wrote: ↑04 Aug 2022, 10:25 I don't think war will ever be eliminated; too many people want power and to take over the world. I believe our tolerance is sort of a roller coaster. That being said, there have been plenty of wars that have happened in the last few years that either no one knows about, or they don't bat an eyelash about. So, unless the media tells people to be outraged, how many of us really look outside of our own lives and take notice of the situations in the rest of the world?

I too would love to see a world without war, but is that really possible. A large part of me thinks not. Another part cannot stop hoping.Patty Allread wrote: ↑04 Aug 2022, 13:14 I would love to hope that our tolerance for war is decreasing, but there have been very few years since Vietnam when there wasn't a war somewhere in the world. I would like to see a world without war. Your question is a good one because an answer would require us to look at several things, including political climate, the way history is taught today, and the influence of the media. If we dig a little deeper, we would need to look at the stated goals of those in power, such as the World Economic Forum.

You have put this wonderful. I believe the thirst and hunger for war is reducing in this new era. No body in their right minds today can say they tolerate it.Sara Scott wrote: ↑04 Aug 2022, 15:37 I work with primary level students, and I like to believe the tolerance for war is decreasing. With the internet, there is more awareness of a global community with newer generations.
That being said, I feel like there is a yin to every yang. I don't feel like true world peace is achievable, there is always going to be conflict and unrest, but I do believe wars on a large scale could be eradicated eventually in the future.
