John Stuart Mill,18th century philosopher:

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."

Please, keep your language, and avoid unnecesary criticism. The question is not entirelly about war but rather about peace and the convienence of maintaining a peaceful atittude at all times...

Personally, I think that to answer this would be like answering this other question: "would it be better for our countries to be more like Switzerland even in times like 2nd World War?"

P.S.: I have nothing against Switzerland. That was only for explanatory purposes...

How can a person drive by a homeless person in a huge Mercedes SUV and think that is okay? I realize we all work for a living but what counts as enough? Is that huge house and cooking lessons really needed? Are we just trying to impress others?

(It sounds better with a fake English accent with a little theatrics),

There he goes again,
Gamboling across the endless moors,
Of Baccarat and endless circlings of random hounds,
Led by the marbles lost inside.
Starlit mires tempt and sway,
With delicate dreams of misery;
Listlessly, melodically, but with rhythm.
Prophecies drift from within,
The travesty of chips and whores,
Lost and lingering, wallowing,
In the lost fountain of youth and decay.
Courted by free drinks and compliments,
Singing bedtime stories of yesterday,
As they're led away.
There he goes again.

So many can ask "the meaning of life", what is the meaning of death? What is a good death? What is a happy death?
If there is a "senseless" death, what is a senseful death?
