You say: "In order to have world peace, I belief that we all have to share the same religious,
morals, values, ethic, opinions, etc. The chance of that every happening is slim to none."
Take as a few examples the countries of Canada and the United States. For the most part, people in
these countries live together peacefully and they most certainly do not share the same religion or
opinions. And, in some cases the people in these countries may even differ greatly about moral
principles. But, there is a level of peace and harmony that has been attained. I think this
indicates that peace is possible without demanding conformity.
The Dalai Lama works tirelessly for peace on the presumption that it is possible in a world of such
vast differences.

In spite of great differences in religion, politics, and opinion there are countries where people
have figured out how to leave together peacefully. Conformity to one religion, political view, or
philosophy is not a requirement for peace. Openness and tolerance are requirements and with the
increasingly interconnected nature of the world this will become more, not less, possible.

I don't believe that humans can ever achieve absolute peace, but we can make it as close as we can.
Countries should keep negotiating to prevent war. People should be better citizens and not commit
crimes or engage others in fights. Families should help each other and support one another.
Government should listen to the people's needs and actually take actions to make their country and
the planet a better place.

Anything is possible. I just don't think it's realistic. In this day in age there is so much
turmoil, war and conflict is not going away. The best we can do is be peaceful ourselves and spread
peace as best as we can. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Peace, it does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or
hardwork. It means to be in the midst of these things and still be calm in your heart.

Peace is possible, but remember, there wouldn't be peace if there isn't hate.

Peace is possible. We need hate at one point to gain peace

Peace is possible, but only temporary. As long as people have a wide spectrum of values, there will
be conflicts. Also, I believe true peace only exists among a small group of people. Problems can be
easily solved by negotiation because you don't have to consider too many sides of arguments.

In our society, war has become glorified and normalized.
To create a peaceful society, you must make war culturally unappealing. One way to do this is
through education in schools.
I would propose a peace class every week in every school for every grade level.

Peace can only be possible when people understand that;
1- man is man and every human being is equal.
2-No matter what we do and how long we leave we shall all die.
3- All religions leads to the same God who created Heaven and earth.
4- When we die we shall return with nothing and we have an account to render to the Almighty.

That depends on how you see what 'peace' means. If 'peace' is to be happy and no worry or basically
everything is postive then no not really. I mean, I wouldnt really want to live in a world with
world peace. Maybe peace in mind instead of actual peace. Though if peace means to coexist then
sure. I think this world is already at peace. For every hate, there is love. For all of the happy
moments, there are sad. We need all of these things to get and understand of things such as peace.
Well Im done with my point of view, if i continue it will end up becoming a giant paragraph. Alright
thanx for reading.

In peace, I think we mean a lack of war. A lack of death over disagreement.
It's a shame that in our world there are still people dying over disagreements. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
