The reasons of war alway seem just and profound The precious cost is buried in hallowed ground who won or who lost are faded echos of the past only silence over the blood soaked carnage ever last

A fitting verse for the family of Man, may we all join in thoughtful silence and reason find a spiritual balance with such deep emotion,

At the time, yes they do seem just and profound, and it's unbelievable how the politicians can brainwash us all to agree with them. So much wisdom and power in few words, a great little ditty farkas Heart2Heart

Words which weigh heavy in our heart because they are the truth. We all yearn for peace in this world but we are offering very little to eventually see it. Admirable, thank you. Ulla xx

I am not so sure....humanity is riven with conflicts, and the fact that war occurs at all belies our inability at times to get on with one another. The only way we'd get through would be if everyone had not any differences worth fighting for. But is that ever possible?
People talk of religious wars. Yet I'd like to point out some things: I don't think the Napoleonic Wars, the World Wars or the Gulf Wars ever broke out because of religion. Wars break out because people think they must have more than someone else, religion merely makes it easier to believe that it is so. And in the case of the Napoleonic Wars religion wasn't necessary - but who can say that the Spanish, God-fearing as they were, should not have rallied in arms for God and country?
