Welcome. What you will find here will be my random thoughts and reactions to various books I have read, films I have watched, and music I have listened to. In addition I may (or may not as the spirit moves me) comment about the fantasy world we call reality, which is far stranger than fiction.

Fred, let me be the naysayer. Every war in history has been followed by peace. Yes, the silver-lining to the dark cloud is the historically proven reality. (All of that optimism, however, falls prey to thoughts about complete apocalyptic WMD annihilation.) I guess we have choices to make.
ReplyDeleteTim,

yes, the three R's we need to master in order to survive: racism, religion, and responsibility(for the planet)...
DeleteMudpuddle,
DeleteGood point. Those have been flash points for wars and, in fact, still are. Another is the boundless egotism of various rulers who drag their countries into wars.
