If YOU could change the world?

Question

If you could change one thing about the world, for what you believe is positive, what would it be? Why?

Answer 1

I would teach people to be open-minded.To realise we all have different pieces of the knowledge puzzle and that by lovingly understanding that we can help each other solve any problem without prejudice,ego,arrogance,getting in the way.

Answer 2

I would create a new belief system...
not one grounded in fear,
not one grounded in hope,
But most importantly, it wouldn't be a belief system at all,
It would be a non-belief!

It would be a fact as solid as the earth we stand on!

We as humans put too much thought into too much stuff.

A long time ago somebody out there coined a very powerful phrase. It's intention, purpose, or why it was said then, may never be fully understood by me. Because I wonder if the person who said it first even really knew themselves just how powerful the phrase really is.

This one phrase would be the basis of this non-belief and with it, it would explain everything once fully understood. To fully describe it would mean that people would have to find it themselves but it's simplicity is so basic that people wouldn't have to look that hard. All they would need to know is this:

"Everything that ever was, Everything that ever will be, and Everything that is right now, follows this Pattern and IS this Pattern in Motion."

This Pattern suggests the smooth subtleness of this violent Earth and it's surrounding Universe through which we simply "Float". With this pattern as a foreground to thought, a person could understand how things came to be, they could understand that they themselves are a complete representation of Nature, how their own bodies share everything in common with Nature, and that they ARE Nature.

However, just because it is a pattern doesn’t mean it is a pattern in control.

Some of the reasons for this non-belief would be:

-- To help Mankind re-define Life.
-- To help explain why things happen the way they do.
-- To take the confusion out of life.
-- To further some scientific research.
-- To stop some scientific research.
-- To give answers to things that nothing else can.

However, some people may not like this non-belief...
It is cold.
It is not a warm snuggly security blanket.
It is a matter of fact, "the evidence is in your face" awareness that will leave you with harsh realities.
But the good thing is, is that once people understand what's happening, all the "harsh" realities won't be so harsh any more!
In fact realities good or bad will simply be "reality"

Will this non-belief soften the edges on ones good feelings as well?
It will do to good feelings as it does to bad feelings.
It will numb the senses.

There is a reason for this.

WE ARE HYPERSENSITIVE!

What makes us so sensitive?
GREED.

The true purpose of this non-belief would be to start a war on greed, and destroy it. Because you see, whether we are doing it directly or inderectly we are all working for and strengthening Global Greed. Sad but True.

I want to turn Greed back into what it is...
just another basic tool along with all the others like love and hate and hunger and rest to name a few and to make Life, LIFE!
Not keep it as it is, creating a comparrison chart and a bad case of the "What About Me's?", the "Check Me Out's", the "I Want's", and the "We Deserve's" -or- the "You should Have's" for that matter.

Greed doesn't need to be used for survival anymore. There are 6.5 Billion people on this plannet I think our species is doing O.K.

That is what I would like to do.

Oh, and I apologize. I would tell you the phrase but I'm afraid I can't share that, I have to protect it with GREED.
Someday I'll let go.
Will you?

I hope you get my point.

Thank You

Answer 3

I would make guns and gunpowder never invented.
If there were never any guns, and never any explosives, wars would be small and short lived. People should stop fighting over land, as we have done for thousands of years.

And I would change the angry, negative attitude people have toward women. All I read on Yahoo Answers is people complaining about how women talk, how they dress, what they think, etc. Even what their ancestors may, or may have not - done, even hundreds of years ago.

If the bible is correct, after God created EVERYTHING, he then created man. The LAST THING he created was woman. And he was finished. Because he had reached perfection with the creation of woman. There was nothing else to create.

So how do we treat women (and even women do this), we verbally and physically attack them constantly for stupid and pointless things. I read this all the time on the net, paper, tv and radio. Especially tv; lifetime should not be shown. It only shows horrible men doing horrible things to women. This makes them scared of all men.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Intolerance. It's a vague true but if we have tolerance amongst cultures, faiths, race etc perhaps many ills of the world would cease and those that still exist can be worked upon in harmony.

Answer 5

Go to a communistic world.....nothing corrupt. Where everyone has to work for something and people are treated equally.

If everyone had to give to receive, more people would appreciate their wealth and lead better lives.

Answer 6

Murder..the thought of someone ending the life of another is just unecessary for this world.

Answer 7

I would convince the world that heaven and hell don't exist, and that consequence in life is the reward and punishment system that nature intended for us.

Answer 8

Kill all the demons in the world.
