War impressed me by the conspicuous absence of women.<BR/>I'm not positive who it is that thinks men look so handsome in uniform .... why is it that men should stand up for what's right? <BR/>Somehow it is civilized to shoot male soldiers, but not the women and kids.<BR/>You are correct. If the women wanted the guys to quit fighting and had a fun alternative, a lot of the guys would not volunteer for the opportunity to win posthumous awards of valor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35136026.post-13189616302243814172007-06-06T17:34:00.000-07:002007-06-06T17:34:00.000-07:00Wonderful words...May peace be yours..."It begins ...Wonderful words...<BR/><BR/>May peace be yours...<BR/><BR/>"It begins with me..."Anndihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08703154815958841195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35136026.post-75578249140215037762007-06-06T14:50:00.000-07:002007-06-06T14:50:00.000-07:00Oh, yeah, there is more than one world leader out ...Oh, yeah, there is more than one world leader out there that needs a momma to say to them as mine did on occasion<BR/><EM>MISTER, WHAT WAS THAT LITTLE EPISODE ABOUT?</EM>bulletholeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681107556161747976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35136026.post-61092262484205439302007-06-06T14:39:00.000-07:002007-06-06T14:39:00.000-07:00I tought twice about this post as so many have lai...I tought twice about this post as so many have laid down their "last full measure" for some stunningly good causes...I wish not to offend the Mothers of those Heroic sons...bulletholeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681107556161747976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35136026.post-75541987903439717162007-06-06T13:43:00.000-07:002007-06-06T13:43:00.000-07:00Steve...

I'm suffering some sort of horrible stomach bug at the moment, and will have to go back to bed, but I'm glad I stopped by here... you gave me a real laugh, imagining all the mothers turning up in their melon aprons and wooden spoons, and dragging their wayward sons home by the ear!! lol!<BR/><BR/>But actually... there really is so much truth in what you say. It's because war is so impersonal, and so seperate from 'normal' life that it can keep going like that...<BR/><BR/>Are you going to write to the president and suggest it to him? How about the other world leaders... maybe we should be petitioning them to get mothers of the world involved!<BR/><BR/>Love and peace to you, Steve!

Nice thoughts, tho...Here's the problem: Kids fight! Nice thoughts, though.... I'm all about having peace, but I'm satisfied with the progress we are making. There is less violent conflict in the world right now than there has ever been at any time in the past. There are also more blogs, freak activists, and 24-hour news channels exposing the conflicts that are happening. That is a good thing; the wide availability of information is the greatest hindrance to those who seek to destroy peace. We are not going to turn human conflict off with a switch. The best we can hope for is a slow erosion of human conflict. That is occuring without me having to take any action at all. I'm satisfied with that and I will continue to do nothing. I'll leave peace promotion activities to those who enjoy them. I enjoy mowing!Dave Renfrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04298793531156100705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35136026.post-6620474593079356262007-06-06T06:59:00.000-07:002007-06-06T06:59:00.000-07:00I think this would work!Love the last line- yu are...I think this would work!<BR/><BR/>Love the last line- yu are so gifted at getting the point across.<BR/><BR/>Peace, Baby!GEWELShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15667187693235282985noreply@blogger.com
