    WOW did not expect the ending lol. But good point u have. But I would say free us ALL. If women ran the world they would just fight in another way which would lead to whatever was most effective in the end...illimate the enemy. It's "human" nature I think, just men are quicker to cut to the chase and use violence but probably slower to figure out that trying to be friends would be beneficial to everyone lol ~Ash

  • A former member wrote: "see good in evil" what would happen to the world if there was no war, what would happen to the world if we all lived happily ever after without war and death? for something to be born something needs to go back to ashes, thats the cycle of life, an eternal cycle that will never stop. there must be a balance, a equilibrium in everything that exists, look at it as a big castle made out of a deck of cards, u take one card out and the rest simply falls appart. im not against it,war was created by humans and we decided to use divine intervention to make it go on a bigger scale( fanatism through religion). if there was no war the worlds as we know today would be filled with the double of the population. think about it

  • A former member wrote: What I think is funny is that the only reason peace between the major powers exists today is because we have become so advanced that a major world war would equal the obliteration of the human race (NUKES). These pussy little terrorist groups and rogue dictators are about that only thing standing in the way of the long sought after "world peace." I doubt this will ever come about though, but nice read. It was a good review of my world history. :D
