War is a part of a human beings nature. We have been throwing sticks and stones at each other for 2 million years and it will only stop when we're gone. This is my opinion anyway. History is very clear in that all of the mistakes and human failures are crystal clear through hindsight, and yet here we are making the same mistakes. I wonder if humans will wake up to themselves, and can only come up with no.

War will pay us another visit...it is right now I guess. I mean look at human nature, protests around the world in opposition to violence...Violent protests again violence. Doesn't seem overly clever to me, just human.

There is this seed of violence in humanity. I always tried to understand it. It is the part of our brain, the reptilian one, that still overrides our rational one. I do wonder if we as humans really evolved, despite our tech and all the modern amenities and inventions we have now.

If we would extract this violent element from the human mind, would we still be humans? How can we tame it and put it to good use? Is there such a term as good use for violence?

I reckon violence is bad directed energy. If only this energy would be put into ourselves, in becoming better at making decisions. I somehow envision a future where people could be more than a vehicle for primitive emotions which lead to terrible acts of hatred and violence.
