As a Jew, what do you think the first and second step to solving the world's problems are?

well it would be helpful if people stopped trying to spread their religion, and concentrated more on social development programs and ways to combat poverty.

understanding and respecting other people's, culture, religion and rituals can help in solving this problem.\nthe crux of the problem is the greedy nature of human.

Giving Palestine to the Jews after WW2, was a mistake, hasn't worked out, and should be recognised as such.\n\nThe policy of the USA leaders isn't helping matters, without their support peace will never be possible.\n\nWe need a revolution in the USA first before anything else can happen\nHopefully with the increasing national debt, dependency on and shortage of oil, and the worsening living standards of poor Americans ,the revolution wont be far off

Don't get me started on this subject. I believe and some historians agree that the only true originals of that area of the world is the Palestinians every Jew is not genetically connect to the original people only religously.\nNotice most of the Jews that came back to "take back their land" came there from European countries. I have no problems with Jews at all but the facts are most Jews of wealth and knowledge were taken away by the Romans in the \ndays of Roman rule  inter-bred wth  the local people and convert some to Judaism.This is over 2000 years!\n The ones that stayed were invaded by others and eventually became Islamic and called themselves Palestinian.\nThe only reason the major countries of the world support Israel is because the Jews control the banking industry of the world.They got the money! I told you not to get me started.

not at all. I think we need to solve our own problems before trying to solve the world's problems.

It would be hard if not impossible to make the world happy with so many different beliefs and religions. What I would do was first hold town hall meetings like we used to yrs ago to find out what the people want not the world Then when I find a way to please the majority of the people then start on how to make the world a better places to live in.\nBut by all means I would secure the boarders and ports by securing the borders we control whom are here. I would start a program that mandates the U.S will not rely on energy\nfrom foreign Countries within 5 yrs it is possible. then start a free trade with all Countries where the Trade is equal and balanced for our Country.\nI would like the rest of the world happy but my first Job would be to try to make this Country Happy

One world, one government. Combine all of the worlds resources for the betterment of all.\n\nWorldwide education for all. A necessary requirement. Insure that empathy and morality are taught and we begin to see eachother as one people. Perhaps during this process, the human ego can eventually be less of a problem than it is now.\n\nGather the top thinkers and try and come up with a new system to motivate people that has nothing to do with the accumulation of wealth. This is a tough one that would require alot of planning and transitional work.\n\nLook into space as the next frontier. Education plays a big role in this, as well as the many other changes required for the systematic resocialization of an entire species.\n\nWork with our planet and begin to ease the many environmental issues that are already suffocating it.\n\nNothing I've written here is new but it does bear pointing out. It's also important to note, imho, that the biggest technological breakthrough we've seen in the last 100 years (after the radio) as been the internet because of it's ability to bring people even closer together. It is already the most powerful tool available to the individual and grants us all the ability to become leaders and productive players for positive change.\n\nIf such a person had the power today to begin moving us all in this direction, it would require several generations before the seeds of this labor began to bear fruit. Which is why the most powerful person in the world becomes but a bit player in the larger scheme of things.\n\nIt's easy to imagine that fundamental changes would be met with fear, anger and sometimes violence. The status quo usually works to deliver this. \n\nSo in the end, because of the walls already in place, the most powerful person on the planet can be expected to be the meekest among us... for he or she would know that change is a group effort.

There are two things necessary. \n\nThe first is education. Our Jewish religious schools and Sunday schools and Hebrew schools stink. The afternoon experience is not that pleasurable after a day of public school. However, we must learn 1)why we believe what we believe, especially in contrast to the majority faith around us, which is Christianity see http://WhatJewsBelieve.org , and we must learn not just how to do Judaism, but also 2)why we do what we do in the practice of Judaism\n\nThe second thing we must learn is how a human being incorporates the knowledge of something into the accepted belief of that something. There are plenty of people who have PhD's is Judaism, but who are devout Christians. They have studied and understand Judaism, but they dont incorporate it into their lives, they have not accepted it as their own. When we find out the hows and whys of a person who decides to accept a faith as him own and practice it, and not just to intellectually understand it, then assimilation will become extinct.

How who thought to solve problems during which conflicts?

Your comment has merit. The heavy handed approach, seems to do little more than spawn new generations of anti-Israel kids. To call them Nazi-like will earn you score and reproach. I would simply say that their approach does not seem to be working.

One of the most devastating problems facing the entire world today is the spread of slums - ghettos - and poverty, and starvation.\n\n I would write a steel solid business plan - - it would take weeks or months just to write the plan, to get it right. \n\nThen I would spend the money to stop the spread of these slums and ghettos and all that come with it. \n\nMaybe I would have constructed some type of special neighborhoods or community-run citypods, anyway it would take much more thought and planning but that's what I would do with the money.

I know this is difficult,but at least this is a good idea,peace is not granted,peace needs  the whole world work together,peace need no more hating,crying, dying and killing ,peace need the first step,the step with honesty,generosity,trust,harmony and love without boundaries,love from every races,genders,ages.\nBut,problem is who'll step out that first step?
