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

Absolutely true. As long as people have differing ideas and beliefs, there will be wars, because there will always be people who take these differing views and begin conflict with others.

Yes. It's natural for humans to have disagreements, resulting into violence

Humans or men only?

Just men. 😆 Does that answer your question.

As long as theres something to fight about there will be wars. The first person who put a fence arround a piece of land and said "this is mine" is to blame🙂

Einstein was wrong about a lot of things (eg.exceeding the speed of light)

Yes

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

Absolutely not! Assume there are only two people on Earth. Stick one in Asia and one in North America with no way of reaching eachother or knowing of the other's existance. There you go, there are men, there is no war! Look in three sentecnes I just proved Einstein wrong!

😄 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆

Either everyone will be forcefully pacified and then there will be a revolution, or we shall fight until we are all united...after which, we will fight again.

yes because there cant be two or more people who agree on everything, it would be crazy, there will always be differences and fue to that conflicts

I agree with the topic

As generations go on the world is departing , conflict has never been so normal every aspect of a daily life has conflict and disagreements and as the generation go on man has more to fight for.

Yes. But war is necessary. All nations that became great became so because of war. Without war there would be nothing.

Edit: I mean, c'mon, look at my shitty country. We have about as much balls as a blind, deaf, quadruplegic, starving pygmy shrew with AIDS. That's about how masculine we are. We're the world's biggest loser, we're the 51st State, and the best we've ever done was when we once very briefly held the position of being a moderately important country. Now, look at America. They were created via warfare. They're big, powerful, have an uber military, the world's strongest economy, they're winners, and they don't take shit from anyone. That's what we should be like. But you know what? We're not like that. Because we were created "peacefully".

So in fact, war is very necessary in order for things to not suck ass.

I'm afraid I agree with Old Albie - however, I hope one day it will be fought by remote controlled robots and will involve few human deaths.

I agree totally though evidence shows female leaders have also been participants in Wars, many old Western Queens etc. ]
I reckon we need a society where there are more women than men [approx. 3:1] [I wrote a thread about this on Gen. Discuss] as the advantages would be very good and numerous:
Read this and see for yourself. The only real problem is the women who want monogamous relationships but that in itself is very weak compared to the many advantages - espeically with regard to the question in this thread.

My analysis. Albert's quote is on point and always will be.
