I don't find it amusing when people kill eachother, and I am tired of asking myself why,so I am asking you:why? Why are people so mean?? And especially:why does terorism exist? Is it so hard to go on with eachother?Are we so stupid?

generally political issues turn into war for 2 basic reasons:
1 - one party wants to conquer the other party in order to expand what would be considered their empire.
2 - one party wants to undermine another party (country) because of jealousy regarding the power that the invaded party is deemed to have.
A lot of the problems coming out of the middle east is due to the fact that this area of the world at one point was the center for innovation and they were incredibly powerful. This changed as europe grew based on their technology and innovations made after the middle ages and during the industrial revolution.

Oh you must be young and dumb, there are almost as many reasons for killing as there are people, religion, greed, love, drugs,you name it someone has died for it. As for why people are mean, frustration, poverty,greed, self-gratification, or simply because they can. As for terrorists, that depends on who is being terrorized. The British called our forefathers terrorists, the Muslims, hate us for helping Jews, and for idol worshiping, that and that we pay for their oil and only the upper class get anything in return. As long as there is only equality for some there will always be hatred,abolishing all religion would be a good start.
And last yes we are that stupid as a spices of life.

I guess it's inevitable - if there were no badness, there would be no goodness (noticeable, anyway).
No, murder is a crime and a sin, and people who are mean have no reason not to try and work things out. Terrorism is mass-murder, and has been around for some time. Yes, we (actually, our political leaders) are stupid for not making treaties, truces, contracts, etc. - instead of fighting and killing.

The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing. This is as true as it gets. Maybe if you want to make the world just a little better you could stop asking yourself why is it this way and insted ask yourself 'How can I make it better?"

Bad things exist because of free will. We have the right to do whatever we choose. However; next time you make a decision, ask yourself who will benefit and what are the consequences? Later ask yourself if you care?

Terrorism happens when religion gets out of control. Zealots pervert the true religion to fit their own hatred, then use it to justify their actions.

Because it's half of the whole. And the whole could tilt one way or the other, at any moment in time.
