Here's what could work, but won't happen (regarding Wars)

(Lonestarnot suggested I repost this on it's own from a thread below...so here I go):



It may not prevent wars, but it will sure keep them as an absolute last resort.

1. Mandatory EDUCATION for EVERY person on the planet. Mandatory to learn history.
2. Mandatory to learn and understand all cultures.
3. Eradicate poverty.
4. Get rid of the the MASSIVE divide between the haves and the have-nots.
5. Leaders elected & required by GLOBAL LAW to lead while having respect for other countries.
6. A spirit of generosity promoted globally.
7. Global freedom of religion and an absolute separation of church and state in every
country on the planet. <---yah, like that'll ever happen!
8. Each citizen of the planet must donate a percentage of their time annually to the good
of the planet, ie: (environmental work, volunteer work, tutoring the young, teaching their
specialty to others, etc.)

I know, this WILL NEVER happen.

There needs to be a global shift of consciousness, and this won't happen unless
big ideas are tossed out. So there you have some big ideas.

War sucks. Mankind is a really stubborn student. The definition of crazy is doing the
same thing and expecting a different result.
