Peace on Earth
Jun. 2nd, 2004 01:02 pmAs long as there is Man (meaning the human race) there will be war. Mankind as an entity is incapable of peaceful existence. This does not mean that we must stop striving for peace, only that we must not act surprised when we fail. This does not make mankind evil. Killing for pleasure is not a sport reserved for humans; cats and weasels revel in the blood of their victims even when their hunger is sated. We are animals--violent, visceral animals. To pretend otherwise is to be blind to our own desires--and to continually be the unsuspecting victims of them, instead of their masters.
