    If you are poor and to the extreme , harmony is a luxury

    Therefore peace is a luxury

    Peace and harmony can be achieved through economic prosperity

    Of both the company and the people indigenous to the country , by sharing the wealth , indigenous to the country

    Fair Enterprise

    The problem is narcissism. A feeling of being slighted by another causing the senses to dispatch from reality. It is the heart of miss communication driving individuals into insanity. There is no cure until it leads to a type of insanity diagnosed. If we hold ourselves accountable to these thoughts forgiveness is easy. Debts cause violence. Debts of pride, money, and ideology are the reason behaviors mislead our thoughts into discerning the thoughts of others.

    First of all, you need to get rid of liberalism which constantly tries to create anger and resentment between people by using propaganda to divide people into rich and poor, male and female, straight and gay, have and have nots, diversity instead of unity, etc., so there is fighting and chaos. We all understand this is a vote getting scam, but it is contrary to peace since it creates and perpetuates division. Peace is contrary to liberalism because peace does not allow as much control over people, as does anger, division and chaos. For example, the terrorists have been narrowed down to one track linear rage, by being so divided agains their programmed demons. There is money and power in this army of linear, which is why the democrats will not give up.

    Peace is not about forcing others to conform, since once you add the force of might or law, you will never have peace. Peace is done without pressure or force so there is no resentful push back. The redistribution scams ,which sound appealing, use force and expect peace, showing how irrational this scam is.

    Back in the hippy days and the love generation, they created peace by removing division, without force. The youth removed the walls of race and sexism, but not with law or force. This was done with love; spiritual. The force of law, tactic, which came later, has caused division.

    I think it does not matter WHAT religion one practices, the reason is simple: one BELIEVES.

    Peace will be had if we get rid of all of our present external and much of our present internal conflict. We will still need one type of inner conflict to survive (explained below), so won't likely ever have total peace, unless we really could get to heaven.

    Paddoboy did well by mentioning Gene Roddenberry, who touched upon a pertinent thought in at least one Star Trek (the old series) episode. Once we haven't something to compete against, or haven't a goal to pursue, we're basically dead. However, I'll explicitly add: try to make it so any conflict is only within oneself. That is how to have a good attitude, or heart.

    I think, though, there is an easier way to say it. Be good and try to bring peace between all humans by improving oneself and not hurting others.

    I have often thought the following:
    "It is only when sharing resources is more important than competing for them that world peace may be possible" ~ss

    The only way to achieve world peace would be one of two ways:

    1) (realistic) Everyone on Earth with an opposing opinion (or at least without the presence of mind and capacity for debate without violence) would have to die. The population would have to be reduced enough that there is zero competition for resources.

    2) Everyone on Earth would have to, somehow or other, come to the realization that their energies are better spent on the betterment of the species and place more value on the process of improving life as a whole for the species than they do on "material gains" and things such as currency and "religion".

    World peace can be achieved by:

    1) respect by business and government , towards the common people

    2) philosophy of business based on Frank Stronach's , Fair Enterprise

    3) by growing the wealth of all peoples on this planet , if so desired , by these people

    4) stop the ego based philosophy , and ego politics

    5) go into the Universe to find planets that are habitable , which is a global co-op , so that all philosophies have a place to explore their thinking and therefore their ability to survive

    6) stop killing human beings , wontonly , and by design

    7) relise we are all Human Beings

    8) stop trying to control other people

    9) be friendly

    10) just be good people

    1. Bio-Nanotechnology and AI induced ultra-abundance
    Poverty is set to be squashed out by the 2030s at the current rate. The prospect of immortality alone will hugely disincentivize violent conflict. Immortality is supposed to be here in like 20 years or so. Good times.

    2. Increasing mental health
    Religion is dying. Major changes for women and minorities have happened far more recently than people realize in terms of history. A lot is changing socially as well as technologically, and will continue to. We have a black president, people. Women are abundant in government. This is not the way things were! Just 'cause things don't seem that evident on a year by year basis doesn't mean huge progress isn't being made.

    Peace on Earth IS possible, but it simply has not been decided upon.

    It has been my experience when you give poor people a lot of money (i.e. lottery winners) it very quickly makes them miserable. They wind up addicted to drugs, alcoholics, in debt, in jail etc. (This isn't because they are dumb, but because you are thrusting them into a life they do not have any experience in managing, in a society that glorifies mismanagement of one's life.)

    That's not to say that welfare is bad - but "lifting people" doesn't always have the effect you imagine it will.

    A program must be establish for this to be affective?? But it may take more than just financial wealth? I would assume...

    Achieve inner peace for yourself first. Then you can begin teaching people what you have learned.
