Albert Einstein - "So long as there are men, there will be wars." Do you agree?

Aliens Wage War

Edit: Accidentaly Hit Agree

I agree, sadly.

Human nature, especially of men, makes conflict an inevitably, and conflict makes war an inevitably.

It is what it is.

It seems legit. We as a species have a tribal mentality. Stay in groups, fight for territory, resources, mates, etc. I don't see how that can change.

And if it did, i posit our race would stagnate.

As long as more than one person exists, there will always be the potential for disagreement, and therefore conflict. This is the sad, but truthful fact.

Wow. This post still around here more than 10 years after I've started it.

And it is still relevant as we're getting ready to enter the next major global conflict with North Korea ..

Einstein was right.

I would like to think that eventually humans will largely grow in maturity and outgrow violence. We see non-violent and rational progress in the world. It's just a slow progress.

There will always be a different opinion, and with that, the need to force it upon others. Sometimes with violence. Until we stop zoning ourself off by what's different about each other, we will never be able to find lasting peace.

I checked I AGREE because the human animal is the most evil in the world......
