I don't know anybody has pointed out the obvious yet, but:
Jesus' two laws were to love God and love your neighbor as yourself.
If everybody followed these laws, in their hearts, there would be no need for government. Certainly no NWO.
The envisioned "Messianic Kingdom", if anything, would look on the outside like a global anarchy. But not a chaotic anarchy; rather, one that works like beautiful clockwork.
Note that this is largely in harmony with the Buddhist notion of bodhicitta.

Islam is about martyrdom defeating the non-believers. While this is noble it can be miscontrued to turn into suicide bombing.

Original Buddhists believe that the Absolute is not a complex being but rather a simplex essence (the one in Plotinus or the end of becoming in Buddhism). While the golden rule is a universal law of communities, it is not wise to treat your neighbor exactly as yourself, nor would your neighbor want you to tell them what to eat just because you ate it.
We are certain that we come from God and that the rest of the world is under the power of the devil.
The god who rules this world has blinded the minds of unbelievers. They cannot see the light, which is the good news about our glorious Christ, who shows what God is like.
And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, nor shall the kingdom be left to another people. It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall stand forever,
Buddhism wants each individual to reach nirvana.

Hurr Durr. Reincarnation hurr durr. I guess it's not as bad as "Hell" as dogmatic preaching but it still causes people to be nonchalant towards other living beings. People getting their "just deserts" in the afterlife could cause nonchalance in regards to human suffering.
