Answer 1

Can you imagine the ractions of the people from the minority-religious-groups / atheists/philosophical groups/ pagan groups / extreme liberal groups etc. -

Should the three largest conservative religions in the world unite on a peaceful front?

Think about that! These minority groups who complain and criticize, and bash - fault-find, blame "Conservative Religions" as being the real Monsters - The Problem in the world - causing all the Wars!"

These minority groups need the three major conservative religions in the world to remain seperated. It's to their own political advantage.

This is 'food for thought!

We may need to re-evaluate what or who the real problem is?

Answer 2

Yes. Certainly material and spiritual education is key to a just and harmonious society. However, a just and harmonious society needs laws and institutions to guarantee equal treatment and access because humans fall prey to their weaknesses, no matter how advanced or perfect the society. Justice is built upon the pillars of reward and penalty and law defines how those processes work for the betterment of and protection of people. In a society that promotes material and spiritual education, laws mainly serve as reminders that people are not perfect and when they aren't, the society will protect them. I hope it's clear that no society like this exists yet.

Answer 3

I estimate up to 25 of 100 the number of violent and aggressive people in a country at time of freedom. We are able to convict in the best conditions 12 from 100, but for the 13/100 who will rest, the fear from punishment only can keep them from violence and from opportunities to do harm.
Furthermore I think that the penal laws might oblige people who have damaged others and the criminals to do reparations according to their possibilities. And not only just put them in jail.

Answer 4

The problem is that YOU expect the entire world to hold THIS one view.

Most people who are committing violence, feel that they are completely in the right to do so... they feel fully justified... whether it is bred in them to hate because of religious philosophies, or a violent upbringing, or just pure mental issues, the people who commit violence are usually committed TO violence.

The laughable thing about the whole "let's all be tolerant of each other" attitude, is that the folks promoting such an attitude actually think that "tolerance of others" EXCLUDES the possiblity that some of the "others" DON'T think the tolerant folks have a right to exist.

So, are we going to stand by and say, "I agree to disagree with you about my right to exist. I choose to tolerate you"?

Because, whether you tolerate them or not, they're going to seek to kill you. BLAM!

one less tolerant person in the world

Tolerance is good, ONLY if EVERYONE in the world agrees with the same definition and terms of tolerance.
Funny how we in the Western world keep thinking that our terms and our definitions are the more intelligent ones.

Answer 5

I am not convinced that is possible. If you would like to check out your theories, try looking in any big city paper for the latest location where some little kid got killed in a drive-by shooting. Travel to that area and discuss it with anyone you see loitering there. If they agree with you, that will be a good testimonial for your ideas.

Answer 6

Fighting fire with fire just gaurantees everyone gets burned.

There are going to be times when there is no other solution.

But invasions, occupations, and war should never be the first resort.

Answer 7

Violence breeds violence .I believe if we sow the seeds of compassion and tolerance we will be able to reap what we sow.

Answer 8

there is nothing u can do to stop violence there will always be someone somewhere who hates someone for doing something and even if there wasnt people would always fight because people are naturally destructive
