War (What is it Good For)?

Daily Literary Quote
“In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.”

Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918)

I think it is necessary, when we need to defend our country and nation.

There will always be bad people in the world. I'm grateful for the people who have fought for us.

I don't think its necessary but I do think that no matter what its going to happen.

Raven

Because people want power and people will do anything to get that power.

I do not think it is necessary but I do think it will continue to happen no matter what. Wherever there is a chance to have power or have more resources (greed), there will always be someone wanting to have that in their hands.

Raven

11/11/2021 12:16:46 pm

I agree

11/11/2021 12:17:45 pm

YOU COPIED ME

Dakota

I do not think so.

Ryan Morgan

Good explanation!!

Mason LaMont

I agree with the power thing.

Ryan Morgan

11/11/2021 12:14:09 pm

Yes war is necessary depending on the reasoning.

Dakota

11/11/2021 12:14:38 pm

Ryan Morgan

Thats not good.

Eliza Fisher

I think that war is necessary. There will always be people that will always try to take over. We need to defend what we believe in.

Trishelle

11/11/2021 12:16:18 pm

Yes, this is very true.

Michael Petroni

Even though war is cruel and many people die, it is still necessary and can't be removed. This is because if we have the ability to think, we will always be victim to other peoples ideals.

Eliza Fisher

I agree with you.

its easier to blame others than to take accountability for our own actions

War is not necessary but it just something that will happen. It is in human nature to try and control other people. People are power hunger creature and are willing to do what ever it take to get that power.

Raven

11/11/2021 12:17:27 pm

I agree with you

Mason LaMont

11/11/2021 12:16:33 pm

No its not necessary. Athough it is a natural human trait to fight. So war is necessary especially when there is a Hitler. The drive for power also adds to the drive for war.

I don't believe its necessary but its a recurring theme in time between countries and beliefs. Everyone strides for power and will do whatever it takes to achieve it sadly. This causes people to hold grudges and have poor choices in mind to win.

thats a good and deep thought. its like humans cant thrive being equal with one another.

war is not a needed component in life however it dies make things go around easier. u kill a bunch of people means new life being brought in and more resources other places. much like when there is a forest fire whatever is taken out means more in other areas and everything is reborn again. life is inevitable however how it is lived is up to the organism. if a tomato plant can live through the cracks of cement and thrive then so can humans in the worst situations.

No it is not necessary. It is to keep countries in line that try to take control and have power over where ever they can get. That is why it will continue to happen.

War is not necessary but it is a part of human nature. We cannot look past our differences and get along. We are programed to hate other people because they are not the same. Someone always starts a fight and it escalates quickly into a war.
