Peace is a mirage. The projection of an outside evil all encompassing enemy such as the Borg, the devil,karma, or that time you fantasied about something you shouldn't and blaimed intrusive thoughts, or whatever it is you personally blamed. Well the evil is inside us we are the ones we fear. We only fear aliens because we know what we would do if we had the technology to travel to some pigmie alien planet . Hello jeckle meet Hyde . I do believe I made Nietzsche proud with this post.

You know I was thinking about what Aliens would say if they were giving a tour or something and came by earth all black and smoking and charred beyond repair.
One alien would ask "Hey what happened there?"
The other would reply, "Oh, the humans. Oh yeah, they were a bunch of A-holes!!!! Yeah, complete retards not only destroyed themselves but all life on their one and only place to live."
The fist alien, "Wow really?? Why'd they do that??"
Alien 2, "Who knows??? They were just idiots and a bunch of mean pricks I guess. Nobody misses them and everyone else is happy they're gone now though. Luckily they only destroyed the one planet I guess but it sure was a nice one. What a bunch of selfish dicks they were. Ok, but over her is Saturn........"
How pathetic is that??? Makes me ashamed to be what I am. Or what I may soon be grouped into.
Then they would have to be fighting us forever because as soon as the aliens left or were beaten the human race would go back to the same old BS.

You seem to be under the impression there are more good people than bad people roaming around out there.
That may be true of not for the fact most people are brainwashed beyond repair and are doing exactly what these evil government bastards want, which is to consume and to not question anything. So in reality, what we have are tons of morons who not only do not ask questions, they do EXACTLY as they are told, like good little zombots.
I want peace, any humane person would, but we aren't getting it. It's past the point of no return by FAR, and the only thing that will create peace out of this mess is sadly a complete wipe of humanity and start from scratch.
It's pathetic but it's what the humans have been asking for, and they will get it.

no because chaos and conflict are part of nature, without it everything would stagnate and die and every past civilization that lived without conflict and hardship has been destroyed when they finally encountered such, or their society just rotted and withered away over time.
war is necessary to survival because peace only reigns in prosperity and prosperity is dependent on finite things that eventually are exhausted.
