I'd like to say that today is/tomorrow will be, depending on your timezone the International Day of Peace.
[The first thing my newspaper offered up to me this morning was the image of a bloody brit getting flaming tanked in Iraq. Charming.]
Nevertheless, stop bickering over your salt and boston tea parties, chimpanzees.
Right, like something like that is ever observed. *bitter at the rest of the world*
It's not that hard people. Cmon. World peace NOW!
Sure, why not? World peace! Something that's never existed before! Let's go, people, MOVE IT!!!Quote:

Y'know. I find it slightly conceited that it's an international day of peace.
Why couldn't it just be International Peace.
If there can be one day (which there won't, people are too stupid to realize that peace is preferable to war) there can be more.
Damnit, I just refuted my own statement. :/
Well there you go! Everyday is a day of international peace for me, at least.
The concept of peace deserves more than just a holiday.
Agreed, we should destroy all weapons in Iraq for true peace in the world :rolleyes2
This is the first time I've heard death takes a holiday, but perhaps it doesnt exist at all, and more of just wishful thinking for all nations
Intention is good, execution is bad
No lets just destroy Iraq. :rolleyes2Quote:

if we walk away they'll walk away
But someones gotta walk away first. And walking away means walking away from money and power.
Inner peace is needed first ;_;
...or, they'll just shoot us in the back.Quote:

Bah humbug. I donot belive in a day of peace. I just do not belive in my fellow man enough. Some one will do somthing stupid, someone will do somthing arrogant, and someone will pay for it with violence. The only way to world peace, is the end of the world.
I am dead serious here, I do not think that our world can know peace. It is clearly spelled out in most religons. Christianity even based on sriving for peace; admitally says that the wicked will always live until the day of judgement.
I am overall more of a peacekeeper, but I could never actually belive in world peace; If I see nothing bad is done on this day I will be proven wrong. While I don't think its likely, I would love to see it.

My heart tells me to have faith in humans, even though we are a self-destructive species.
Here's a thought: Maybe we destroy things for we are searching for peace, and in the end the only peace we can find is death, therefore we kill all to achieve this peace.
I dunno where that came from, just a random thought.
If a tree falls in a forrest, and no on hears it - does it make a sound? If we irradicate ourselves, will there still be peace? Dun think so.
Not even plants live peacefully, they will fight eachother for light, and cling to life in which ways they can. Life is pain as a fat man once said.
If we were brought to nothing, there would be nothing - not even peace.
Have a good day though! :love:

All life is fueled by a mind-numbingly huge ball of nuclear flame. Forget life, the whole UNIVERSE is an exercise in the power of unmitigated self-annihilation. The miracle is that, in all this, the power of creation still holds sway, and we chains of excited carbon molecules became anything at all.
Which, as far as I'm concerned, is as good a proof of a Creator as anything.
everyday is peace day for me, i like peace, i hope messers Blair and Bush realise and observe it :choc:
's not proof. Just another unlikely situation. Proof would be the creator appearing and saying, "Yep. It's all my fault. Sorry."Quote:

Don't be so cynical. Anyway, there was world peace before. A long, long time ago, before civilisation. When there was just nomadic tribes. They rarely fought, because they appreciated the value of a human life. And there wasn't many people the, so everyone counted.Quote:
