How did the WAR Began on Earth?

War starts because of power. Someone has it and someone else wants it. Also religion is a major cause of war. I think that if there was no religion we would all be much better off.

Both world wars were in the 20th century. Also the wars in Korea, Vietnam, Iran, Iraq, etc. I think that most wars start as someones freedom of religion is denied.

What an excellent and well timed question, thank you.\n\nMost people believe that the start of the war was a response to North Vietnamese patrol boats firing on the US destroyer USS Maddox in the Gulf of Tonkin in 1964.  This "attack" was the all the reason needed for the US to "respond" with bombing raids on North Vietnam.\n\nBut, and this is important, there was a report that came out a few days ago that basically states the North Vietnamese did NOT shoot at our destroyer and further the N. Vietnamese had no idea where our destroyer was!

Before 3000 BCE (5,000 years ago) there was no record of wars. At that point in history, the human population reached 100 million, and wars became endemic, after the onset of nations trading with each other (and cheating, or because of piracy/stealing) and we humans have been in the constant state of war ever since...\n\nThere are no reliable records of a civilization indicating the presence of armies in Mesopotamia much earlier than 2500 BCE, not 3500 BCE as previously mentioned...

It started in 1990 with Iraqs invasion of Kuwait.  The original Gulf War really didnt end, so it's been one long war.

Yes, this is all just the beginning.\n\nSee if you look at the world today you will notice chain reactions happening all over the world that started on that day.  Example: the worlds distrust of the US.\n\nYes, a lot of things lead up to it, but it was the calmination of everything prior.\n\nBut don't worry just yet.  WWII started off a little skirmish it was a couple years before it became a blown out war.  The time you should worry is when another superpower enters this little skirmish or when it truelly becomes a religious war.\n\nYes, I know it seems that this is a religious war, but it's really just a political war right now.  If you noticed even on this forum it's becoming more religious every day. It still a man(Bin Lauden) using religion to do something political.  Eventually this will turn into a religious war or another World War; either way it will be the war to end all wars.

Just read this:  http://www.firstworldwar.com/origins/causes.htm\n\nThe war started out as a dispute between Austria-Hungary and Serbia over the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, but escalated as other countries entered the melee.\n\nHistory can fault Germany because they lost.

God created man, in one sense, by bringing angels to the earth capable of taking on physical forms.  They disregarded their instructions to avoid cohabitation with the pre-human inhabitants of Earth.  They "ate the forbidden fruit", and mankind was the result.

War is usually about the most wanted commodity.  The most important commodity I can think of is Water.  So if I had the resources and the evil nature, I would go after controlling all the water supply world wide.  This is the ultimate power ... but I'd need to hire real smart scientists to figure out how to separate the people from my new water supply that only I control.

The battle was over before it began.  Jesus Christ was slain before the foundation of the world.  God's purposes have all been accomplished. But time as we perceive it is playing it out.   \n\nGod is in all of time all at once.  There is no battle, it's already over.

Many.  There are wars going on all the time.

Earth wasn't invented (at least not if you listen to common sense), it was created from abiotic (non-living) sources. It started when hydrogen and helium clouds turned into stars because of their gravitational force. These stars then developed other simple elements like oxygen, nitrogen and carbon (necessary for organic compounds) these brought about nebulas which made simple compounds. Eventually matter formed into large masses that became planets, comets, and asteroids.

Correct Lincoln started the war unconstitutionally. It was never declared a war by Congress. Lincoln ruled as a dictator according to his own hateful whims. Thus always to tyrants.

By capturing land and colonizing territory: lots of wars over many centuries. The same way every big country did.

No - the holocaust started long before the whole world got involved in the war -- Just Google the word holocaust and you will learn the sad grisly truth
