Apparently (all) our leaders lack the ability to find peaceful solutions, each for his own reasons. It is a shame when violence occurs and it would be nice to use alternatives to killing and war.

There will NEVER be peace...there is too much greed in the world. \n\nThere will always be someone wanting more than they have...be it, money or power.

peace is, in my opinion, a metaphor for what we might think as being buddy buddy w/ others. that will probably never be the complete case w/ iraq.  i think that we will become somewhat understanding and that some ppl will always be bitter towards us, which is the case w/ the world, but we r already in there and need to help them get through the tough times that they are having

No, because we definitely wouldn't want peace because there would be no progress and nothing to struggle for. What we are really looking for is a world with non-violence where we solve our conflicts and disputes diplomatically without going to war. That is a world in which there is till conflict but it is never violent and the opposite of peace is not war it is creation! It is completely possible to be non-violent, but to always agree on everything that would make us all the same and that kills diversity. To address the question of human nature. Humans are not inherently hateful, violent, or mean that's what we have been taught in our culture, there have been cultures in which this was not the case it merely requires some thoughtful research into ancient societies. Human nature is not fixed we are not bron a certain way it is mutable and we are programmed by our culture to behave in certain ways deemed culturally appropriate. The argument that humans are by nature violent has no real grounds because it will always be biased by a cultural viewpoint that see's violence as inevitable (such as ours here in the U.S.) Therefore we will always assume all humans are violent even when presented with evidence to the contrary. Humans are very capable of loving one another we see it happen all the time if we dain to look beneath the surface of things. We have had political struggles that have challenged racism, homophobia, sexism and so on all of which stem from a consciousness of love. I fully assert that humans are extremely loving creatures and that we can develop that side of our "nature".

Because we are all capable of being selfish, insecure, and defensive.  We are also capable of better, but not consistently enough to achieve world peace.

The world will never be a peaceful place as long as there are material interest as a base of society,it's simple-people are greedy and that meeans that no matter their lack of need they will threat other people for their resources.It isn't fair yet it happens since the begining of the forms of human organisation.

I think most people want peace, but a few people are able to convince folks, once in a while, that war is preferable for one reason or another.  And yeah, some things are worth fighting for, and some things are worth dying for, but not nearly as many as some people seem to think.\n\nI think peace is coming back into vogue, now that we are once again learning about the cost of war.  Though it may be a while before we can have peace, because it's a much easier thing to break than it is to build.

To all things there is a season upon the earth, including war and peace.  Fortunately, we are now entering a time in history of great enlightenment and peace.  It may take a few generations, but it's inevitable.\n\nIf you want peace, work for justice for your fellow man.  That means people on the other side of the planet who may have a different religion.  We can all agree to covenant to One All Highest Creator to give up war and violence, at every level.

if u don't believe, u already make it impossible. i believe in peace because we can not live with caos for ever. people want it and get it soon. all u say NO because sustaining peace is hard, and u escape from the responsibility and hard work, and hiding behind Bible

World peace is a misnomer. There has always been war on the earth, and there will be war long after we are gone from it. It is a sad truth that war is part of human nature. I would love it if the whole world could get along, but let's be honest, most of can't even get along with our neighbors and co-workers, much less the rest of the world.

Because humankind has not grown up enough to resolve issues in a peaceful manner.

There are only two ways to resolve any dispute among human beings.  Either the two sides work a compromise together that meets the needs of both.  Or force is used to make one side give in to the other.  War is never a real resolution of any issues, because the underlying factors that caused the misunderstandings in the first place are still there.  Sometimes we just have to wait for the next generation to take action to resolve issues that are nonsense.\n\nPeople have to be taught to hate.  People can be taught to love.
