Greed and envy are part of being human. If we could keep these under control, you could have peace.

It started with the first murder, Cain and Abel. Then mankind thought of every evil thing imagined under the sun, and God repented that he made man, so he distroyed the earth the first time with water. Sin has been around for ages. It is a battle between good and evil. This is real! But in the end, Good will triumphant when Jesus returns. Things are intensifying. Things have not always been this intense even though sin has been in the world for a long time. Be ye ready!

Why do we have to have bodies that feel pain? Why do we have to have privacy of consciousness, so that others have no access to our thoughts, and misunderstandings occur all the time? Why can't we exist as disembodied spirits with no needs, so there will be no occasions for conflict?
___Unrealistic expectations make you sad. One of the miracles of human life is finding joy amid one's own suffering. Pursue your ideals of peace, but remember that they're ideals, not facts.
___Some questions are just badly formed questions, like "How do I know that I really exist?", or "How do I know that the world really exists?", or "What's the meaning of life?" These questions aren't real questions, but artificial combinations of concepts that don't belong together. To assume that these questions have any real meaning is to assume that even the most abstruse aspects of reality will submit to human understanding, and is in a way an arrogance of the human intellect. The people who have led you to believe that such questions have any merit other than as idle thought experiments have misled you. Just live the best life that you can, and don't get too attached to the notion that suffering can be absolutely avoided. Suffering happens, and yet most of the 6 billion people alive manage to go on valuing their own lives and the lives of others. The attention you devote to pointless questions is attention you can't devote to making people's lives better. Though we all worry, sometimes it helps to think of such preoccupations as self-centered.

Well, I wish for world peace too. But you know that saying, "you have to get through hell to get to heaven". Earth is like hell, wars and not complete peace here. If there was total peace and no obstacles, then there would almost be no need for heaven. Life would be too easy.

It's a sad part of human history. We don't all think alike or share the same values and ideas (or faiths). This, unfortunately, always leads us to war.

Believe it or not (and you can,because it is biblical)-God knew when sin entered the world when Adam and Eve blew it in the Garden, hatred, greed, jealousy,envy,etc. would enter in and God went on to tell us that there will always be wars and rumors of wars! And that will not change til Jesus comes and rules and regins forever.

Because the human race is inherantly violent and until we evolve past this the world will never change.

Humans are simply warlike. If you ask me, I believe it is due to the demonization of aggression and the suppression of our aggressive instincts.

Because the atheist won't let us have peace.
