AguAzul,

You know, I really wish that your belief will come to fruition, but I think history, and human nature, will prove you wrong!.
When you say peace and harmony, that includes everything like global war, terrorism, domestic violence/abuse, hate crimes, fights erupting during organized sporting events, rioting, genocide and ethnic cleansing, violence during the committment of a crime, even a schoolyard fist-fight!.!.!.
I don't think 1000 years is enough time to over-come such problems!.

As a somewhat student of geopolitical affairs and the art of diplomacy, the threat of war is a very real instrument of diplomacy and foreign policy!. And sadly, it has been employed countless times throughout history!. How many times has a country or state used their military when they deemed it necessary to protect their national interests!? This capability and capacity even has a formalized budget to maintain this arm of government!. In the US, the overall war-making machinery has become a significant part of our gross national product, an economic baseline, and vast contributor to areas of growth where a military depot, base or function supports a local population (not to mention foreign sales)!. Therefore, on a national scale, organized war-making is as much a fiber of our country's personality as is movie-making in hollywood, research and development, the stock market, and other national assets!.

Throughout history, one country or area has assumed responsibility for world leadership, and with that responsibility comes the burden of might!. Greece, Roman Empire, Monguls, British Empire, USA, and so many others throughout history!.
Having noted all that, the question remains, does a country necessarily have to execute war or conflict simply because they possess the ability!? Modern history tells us yes; we're presently in two wars - we couldn't get much more current!.
More importantly there's the question of whether the world will ever be able to solve conflicts without conflict!? I regret my belief is that there have been and will be times where two parties are both correct in their approach or desired solution to a problem!. What happens when two opposing parties believe they are right!? In law, they go to court!. When national security or interests are so important, it simply would not matter what decision was arbitrated!. The party that felt they could best the other would wage war!. It's that simple!.
And what about freedom-fighters, or terrorist depending on which side you support!? The under-dogs know a frontal assault would be futile!. They will continue to engage in covert aggression and hostilities to try to achieve their goals!. These are just some of the realities when collective minds are at play!.
What about on an individual scale!? Will there ever come a time when all males refrain from striking their wives/gfs in order to control their actions!? I doubt our planet will ever develop a single child-rearing method that produces each and every person free from abusive or aggressive actions towards their spouse!. I feel there will always be a type of person who becomes so frustrated by their inability to influence someone else that they will resort to violence!. We as a whole have come a good ways in combating things like hate crimes, but in my opinion, these have always been unnatural acts of violence that could disappear over time and education!. Yet other acts of violence such as murder will probably never be erradicated!. I think human emotion itself is the culprit of individual violence, and until we evolve to the point where we ever can change our human nature, I fear violence will always be present!.
To me personally, I would be happy and feel progress was being made if acts of violence were actually on the decline!. But it seems year after year, in most developed countries, violence is on the rise - not a very good start of within the next 100 years if all of this is to go away!.!.!.!.!.!.

all this JMHO

good luck to allWww@QuestionHome@Com

Peace and harmony are not products of time,they are the result of understanding of life!.If we beieve that peace might happen in 100yrs from now,it is an escape from investigating the present mess in the world!.Unless we attend to the present chaotic situation in the world,problems of the world will not resolve by themselves in course of time!.Unless our way of life does not change radically in the present,nothing new will happen in the future!.It is utopian to believe that something good will happen by itself in course of time!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There will always be conflict because its human nature to feel you are right over somone else!. The levels of crime may decrease and world problems can dramatically improve sure, but complete peace and harmony are very fragile things and there isn't much room in this world for the soft!. Complete peace and harmony impossible!. improved peace and harmony possible!.

Ex!. within 100 years humans may improve their manners towards eachother and establish a much greater amount of peace on earth, but with the years also comes more technology and even new war weapons!. Once human nature settles in and somone feels angry they could push one button and blow up a whole country!. So it's pretty much impossible!.
Please trust me on this one!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Humans haven't lived in peace and harmony for 5000 years!. What makes you think the next 100 years is going to be any different!? You'd have to give me some specific reasons why you think that, for me to believe things will change in that short amount of time!. HOWEVER, I hope you are correct!. It would make the earth a wonderful place to live, wouldn't it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Haha, you guys HAVE to read Chekhov's Three Sisters!.!.!.I have a strange suspicion this topic is straight out of there!.!.!.the words are almost the same even! A character called Vershinin argues about this with another guy called Tuzenbakh!. Very relevant play!.

I don't think true peace and harmony can exist if we want to keep our democracy - you can't have your cake and eat it too ;)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't!. The diversity of life is so great that I don't think it could be described to its full magnitude on paper, not by me anyway!. There are too many differences, and when you're talking about a society living together, experiencing the same culture, practices, political ideology and things, there is bound to be disharmony!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Good positive thoughts from you!. I like that kind of attitude and positive belief!!! !.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.I just hope too that humans will live in peace and harmony!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. I hope your guess is as good as mine!. How i wish and hope that willl transform to reality!.

Great positive thinking!. Thanks for asking!. Have a great day!Www@QuestionHome@Com

really not because in the morden world humans have become very lazy and humans are polluting the nature and because of this ozone layer is depleted which may cause many health disorders!. And also because of increasing population resources are limited to feed the growing population!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i don't know about the 100 years but it sure will happen in the future!. Because i believe that humans will evolve into a better being in the future!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I really don't think so!.!.!.!.!.!.!.You can never be in peace and harmony!.!.!.!.!.!.Even if there are only two people on earth they will not agree on everything!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.That means that they will argue about something sooner or later!.!.!.!.!.!.!."IT SUX BUT, THAT'S THE TRUTH!.!.!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

No!. Its not in human nature to be peaceful!. We are a violent race that after we get out of our comfort zone we resort to primal violence!. And since comfort is a limited thing, violence is the natural outcomeWww@QuestionHome@Com

Man, I certainly hope so!. This petty squabbling that we do over insignificant differences is ridiculous!.

I'm with you pal!. I certainly hope so!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
