Question: When will the people of the world become less selfish so the world can blossom!?
When will we get a long better!? People of nations are always seeming and willing to fight!. Just imagine what great things humans could accomplish ( here on earth, or space travel) if we wasn't busy fighting wars!. What a waste!.

When will people of the world ever become more kind to one another so the world can blossom like never before!? Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
When people learn to love their enemies!. Here is what Jesus says:

"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbour and hate your enemy!.' But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven!. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous!. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get!? Are not even the tax collectors doing that!? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others!? Do not even pagans do that!? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect!." (Matthew 5:43-48)!.

This scripture is much easier to read and to say that it is to do!. To me, it is one of the most difficult parts of the Bible to accomplish!. I myself had a lot of difficulty learning to love my enemy (I'm still working on it), and most of all, thinking that I could be 'perfect' like God while living here on earth (we are full of sin!)!. We need to pray for what we want!. In a quiet place, by ourselves, so that we can concentrate!. We just need to start saying what's on our mind!. God will hear us!. He promised us that!.

You can be the first one to make the world blossom like never before, Mike!. And you can start right now!. You can be the very first one! How cool is that!? Thanks for your question - you cheered me up today! See!.!.!. it's working already!

The idiocy of Socialism is that it cannot quite grasp that group interest arises from self interest!.

The desire to end war is selfish!.

The world will not blossom if we end selfishness!. Self interest drives the engine of life!.

A blossom is as flower telling a bee to engage in some mutual self interest!.

The flower selfishly wants to reproduce!. The bee selfishly wants the nectar!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well!.!.!. its just, when were having a war, it seams that we sometimes accomplish things as well that contribute to our world!. Cold War, we invented new air crafts as well as new weapons!. However if we stop we could also improve the world, such as get troops out of Iraq and send all the moneys into charity groups, African nations!. I think we should at least concentrate on dealing with financial, environment, and technology!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The world in part has moved forward working towards change!.!.!.it is happening!. Perhaps, we just don't hear about those involved in active participation as much and/or as often as of yet!. Therefore effort I believe is never wasted, but counted as important steps towards all future generations!. Thanks for asking!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Let me remain close to your question, "when!.!.!.people!.!.!.become less selfish", right!? Well, start it from yourself!.

There are a few difficulties!. People who believe in fairness will often seek revenge!. As long as people seek revenge (sometimes called justice), aggression becomes a never-ending escalation!.

People generally seek revenge or justice after believing they have been hurt in some way by the party to which they seek their revenge!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Everyone lives their own life at the end of the day!. We have to look after ourselves!. Its a egocentric view but that is what it takes!. I am not like this but I see that people who are, are the ones that get far!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Never! You're too utiopian!. Try to accept the world as it is and stop dreaming about things that will never happen!. I save my imagination for dancing and writing and don't waste it on such things as you mention!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Never!. Selfishness is essential for all life on this planet to survive!.

It's a shame, but we have to live with the consequences of that!.

Selfishness has positives too!. It drives people to succeed and invent new things!.
