It definitely is a dangerous world, and we should be prepared to face whatever life throws at us. However, that doesn't mean that we need to make it any more challenging for ourselves by BECOMING a threat to each other. War has been a means of settling disputes and expanding territory and resources since the dawn of time, and is probably not going to go away, humans being humans after all. I seem to remember a history professor telling us that there have been less than a hundred years cumulative peace, when there wasn't some war or another somewhere on earth, in the past two thousand years. I don't think we'll ever have everlasting peace, nor perhaps, it can be argued, should there be -- what if another Hitler rose to power somewhere? There are times when turning the other cheek just means you get hit on both sides, but there is a time and place for everything; most disputes that end up in war could probably be resolved without bloodshed if the participants were willing to take the time and effort. It's just easier to pull a trigger.

Do you want to go to war? Kill people? Live with nightmares about it all your life? Wake up at night drenched in sweat thinking about the people that died right beside you? Do you want to see the faces of the people that you killed every time you close your eyes? Do you want to go pay a visit on your best friend's grave and cry for him knowing that he could still be alive? Do you want to wonder why did he have to die because of technology? If that´s what you want go to the nearest army facility and enlist (if you haven't already) and then perhaps you'll understand why war is hell. By the way I hope that you are asking this because you are curious what the answers will be, not because you actually believe that we don't need a peaceful world.

Fear and empathy. No one wants to get hurt, and no one wants to see others get hurt. Therefore, humans want a peaceful world.
