when will men tire of war and find a peaceful means to use their  energy?

It is not the question of when it is the question of how or what can be a solution or whats going wrong ./.......and the answer is that all that we do is an outcome of the enerfy that we have now there is something called good energy and bad energy and the usage of that energy defines how the world is going about .....the people going to war or who are pro-war is not something that is wrong and I will say it is not right either coz it is not a choice made by them with full CONSCIOUSNESS and this is where the whole understanding makes a big difference ....spiritually .....we do commit mistakes and those are out of our innocence i use this word coz it is true the evil thinks they know it all and they can manipulate the world but there is something there which UNTIL they dont realize the transformation cant take place .....giving and eg I can state a story from the east about a person who used to loot people and do all the vices in life till he REALIZED himself and became a saint and wrote one of the most famous book about religion in the east ...so my point here is not the person /saint but

Well, peace is always good since it prevents the unecessary death of others.  War would be good if you run a major corporation and can profit off it.

Always.\n\nFreedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed - else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die.  ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower

I can't believe playtoofast's answer.  The way to avoid war is to ruin the whole planet in order to 'save' the planet?  (we only have one atmosphere and if you haven't noticed its already pretty damaged already)  Besides, who are we saving the planet from?  People who you don't like?  Tsk Tsk\n\nAnyway just because war is and has been a part of human activity for a long time, it is never inevitable.  As soon as we think it is then we allow ourselves to take another step down the road to war.\n\nHumans can do whatever they want to do.  Each generation seems to forget the incredible stupidity and suffering attached to warfare and begins it all over again out of ignorance and ego.\n\nIf we can spread education and spread compassion for differing points of view then we can achieve peace.  It starts with each of us controlling our own negativity.

Take a look around your own group of friends. Things get dull and right away someone starts stirring up trouble to make things interesting.\n\nThe same thing happens on a macro-scale. We can't live without arguing and fighting about something. If we get out of Iraq, we will have to send our boys somewhere else otherwise, they'll just hang around the inner city killing their local homies or, they'll sit around idle on a base in Germany cultivating a heroin addiction.

War. At least I would try get rid of the thinking that leads to war and work on changing thinking styles to nonviolent resolutions.

There will NEVER be peace throughout the world, at any given time there are at least 5 wars going on, many we are involved in but with less news coverage, WWII was over 60 years ago and we still have troops in Germany, Korea ws 50 years ago still have troops there. As long as one country has something another country wants there will be war, Until we have alternative fuels or the middle east runs out of oil we will be in Iraq

Forget about religion ! Even the current human civilization based on nuclear fission will not last long. It will give way to  a civilization based on bones & ashes. Religion will be replaced by spiritualism in which man will worship the God in his heart with the help of his mind.

No, man can not accomplish world peace on their own.  If you read the last days as describe in the Bible's Matthew chapter 24 and Luke chapter 21, it looks like someone just described what we see around the world.

Unfortunately, there has always been war, and I have no reason to think that the world will ever be completely free from it.  There has never been complete world peace and I don't think there ever will be.  \n\nI'm not of the doom and gloom mentality, I'm just realistic.  And if you're the least bit religious, then you know that this world is corrupt and total peace will never exist here.

It is a million dollar question.No one wants war. Also those who are itching to wage a war want the war to be waged in some other country but not in their country. But remember no country can rule over any other country for long.The soldiers want to go back to enjoy life with their family and not daily risk their life at a far off land.\nSince man power is limited with super powers they would not like to sacrifice their army but then fight from the sky.\nUltimately what theyt would get is only burial grounds.\nMay be CALM would prevail at that stage.There will be no more enemies to fight with.nor any friends to live with

No. If everyone stops being at war, & starts negotiating, we can reach peace.\n\nAlso, confrontation is not war. You can confront someone with a problem, & then you can work on fixing it. That, for me, is peace enough.

In the real world there are things called strategic resources which countries desperately need, they are willing to fight for them.  Also, religion makes people hate each other. ect.  It's not realistic that war will go away any time soon.

Gone With The Wind Quote: "It isnt about the slaves or the cotton, Scarlett. There will always be wars because men love wars, yea, passing the love of women"...\n\nBut that's not the answer to your question. We feel the need for wars because we are not yet in a state of civilization which can properly respond to crises. Call it animal instincts. Look at people around you - some are timid or peacemaking types, but some are aggressive - ready to fight and get beaten maybe, but still fight. They will invent all sorts of excuses - ego, insult, religion, corruption, love et cetera, and simply refuse to reflect on the situation calmly. The essence of balance is detachment, i guess we just cant be enough detached.
