How can the world be united as one and agree on common goals such as peace?

Question

seems an imposible accomplishment. But one that is important to the Earth's future, inhabited by the human race

humans have accomplished imposible things sence the beginning...Why not this?

Answer 1

As long as people believe they possess the total and final truth and others need to follow their beliefs we will have striff and division. Tolerance seems almost impossible for many people.

Answer 2

Those are the quixotic notions of school children.

Heads just need to come up on what they feel is Right, and anything opposed to that has to get squashed. I like it this way. It motivates people to accomplish something. Tolerance can still be massaged into it, much the same as the Romans allowed others to do what they wanted so long as they paid their tithes, but the bottom line will always need to be backed by force.

It's good this way. It makes sense.

Answer 3

it is impossible. it's human nature to divide things (look at our systems of.....anything) and lable things (again, look at our systems) and then judge discriminately based on those lables. Humans are by nature self centered and will always try to make someone or something out to be lesser than themselves which gets others angry. this is why racism and sexism exist among other things.

world peace will never happen. the world is not going to last forever no matter how much we get along. end is inevitable. get over it.

Answer 4

The only viable answer I've seen or heard of is proposed in "Invasion of the Body Snatchers."

Answer 5

education -
if everybody knew english (and common language for that matter) and could share his ideas and learn others ideas with a neutral and open mind - we could all get along.

Poverty, another hinderance to peace, can be ridden of by education too.

Answer 6

get rid of the liberalism and and the environmentalist and i think we will be OK
