I just don't know. Probably modern people will be virtually wiped off the face of the earth and everything we know will be wiped away. Then maybe the survivors great grandchildren will find things that tell them about our inability to get on with our neighbors and maybe they will think we were Gods and should be worshiped and the cycle will start again as they have in the past.

There have always been, and will always be "bullies" in this world. It is a part of the human condition, which The Holy Bible calls "sin". The only answer is Jesus. I know, I know, it is the pat answer of those who call themselves Christian, but, it is the only answer to the condition of human beings and the horrible situations that human beings get themselves into.

Re: Sea Gypsy
You are right, peace talks are the sane thing to do. And so much safer than any alternative I can think of. Peace!

I am still hoping for someone to arrange talks at a Peace Table. It's the only sane thing to do.

Good afternoon
I feel the same way that you do. We do need a recess from everything. There is no peace even for one day in our world. I would love to feel completely safe once again, but that will be a long time coming. It is unsafe to buy groceries and gas because there might be a robbery or a shooter. Everyone is offended by something, no matter how small the issue or topic. Nuclear war has been feared for decades. It would be the death of millions, and the people proposing it are too out of their minds to care.

Good Afternoon
It's hard for me to believe this is the world we live in today. I always say it's a sign of the times but I worry about all the children growing up around the world. This is their life and they are living in dangerous times.

War no longer needs to be about people charging at other people to kill them as obstacles to owning ground. If it were done with intent and persistance, governments and autocrats can be brought down through financial maneuvering and the use of computer-based tactics.

Re: Adnohr
I've had this very thought. I hope we are wrong, that it's not the only answer.

It's both frustrating and terrifying. One man holding the whole world hostage. Sometimes I would love to be an accomplished sniper. Sometimes THAT is the only answer.
