Have you ever been directly involved in a project to promote peace?

Question

What was your experience? Was it through a school, organization, on your own, etc.? Did it address education, resources, financial opportunity, etc.? Was it in your home country or another? Was the final goal actually peace, or was there a more concrete goal that would lead to increased peace as side? Would you do it again?

Answer 1

I've been involved in urban parachurch organizations designed to give especially the youth of inner cities an alternative to the violence and drugs they see around them every day. Peace and salvation from sin were twin emphases that contributed to one another.

Answer 2

I have been in many projects to promote peace. Although nothing on such a grand as scale as you are probably looking . I was just the this morning on a peaceful project to tell a question asker that they might want to lighten up and enjoy the humerus answers they receive to their questions when I read this question and thought how fitting since I am now involved in a peaceful project with you.You see it seems you mistook my answer to your last question which was meant as a humorous response. It seems from your questions you need a little humor in your life, I am sure you probably think I should not be concerned with what you need , alas it is the nature of me to concern myself with others problems that I think I can solve with a kind word here and there. I live to put a smile on peoples faces. I imagine you do not understand this since you did not see the humor in my questions that you read. Had you read them all you may have a better understanding and you might not have came to the same conclusion. However enough of this I am still here to answer your question with a resounding yes. You are my project to promote peace between me and you afore you get to upset with one who just tried to inject humor into your life. I am well aware of the fact that some people have a different sense of humor than I. Well in time I can only hope that you forgive me for feeble attempt at making you smile. Maybe I have put a smile on your face with this senseless rambling today , maybe not , albeit done in the utmost sincerity to make you smile.

Answer 3

Yes I wrote letters to our troops in Iraq. I told them I was proud of the job they were doing, creating a democracy amidst all the dictatorships and corrupt monarchies that fund terrorism.

I asked them to kill more raghead terrorists so they can come home and we can all sleep better knowing we won't have another 9/11 attack on our country.

I feel that the more Islamicist murderers get fragged or locked away in Gitmo or Abu Garaib is a concrete goal that would lead to more peace in the world since 99% of all the world's violence is initiated by terrorist Muslim fanatics.

I would-I'd do it again.
