Make peace, not war.
Is war ethical? Are we considered brave heroes if we go to war to fight? Well, for starters war is NOT ethical, since war goes against all the principles of God. I am the pioneer of satyagraha- resistance to tyranny through mass civil disobedience, this philosophy is firmly founded upon nonviolence. I believe that in order to achieve peace in the world, we must not use any violence or make any menaces to the world. We must put in practice the concept of nonviolence and nonresistance, since: "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind". With war we bring violence, hate, murder and menace to the world. War is a way we are to auto-destroying what we have cultured our whole lives. Violence has no purpose, violence brings death, not peace nor freedom. The science of war leads to one dictatorship. While the science of non-violence leads to one pure democracy. Power that is derived from fear, punishment and death has no use at all. It fullfills no ones soul. Power that is based on love and peace is athousand times more effective than the power coming from hate and fear. To achieve this level of nonviolence, incredible faith and courage is required, which not everybody posses. I therefore advice that everyone need not keep nonviolence. If you must fight, then you must fight unarmed. War is not the solution for anything in this world, although it may seem the easiest way to set things straight, it isn't. It is immoral. War has no ethics, it is completely unethical.

ReplyDeleteGAUTAMA: Obviously. I urge everyone to avoid war. I believe in a world in which people are compassionate towards others. I disapprove violence and war. I think everyone should be selfless. To be moral is to be at peace with yourself and others. Humans should be good to others, take care of animals, and avoid fighting. I think that the four moral norms are: friendliness, compassion, joy, and equanimity. Everyone should act altruistically and help others when they can.
ReplyDeleteLife has no real reason or purpose, so let people go to war if they want, let them chase whatever they want. Even if it takes fights to get what you want, you should fight for it no matter what.''God is Dead'' and he has nothing to do with the choices we take.
ReplyDeletewe must all learn to love each other, lets respect others. do on to others what you would like to be done to you. almighty god gave us ourselves to love each other not kill each other. fighting doesn't lead to any good.
ReplyDeleteWar does not exist. Therefore there is no way that one is able to decide whether it is ethical or not ethical. To you it might seem not ethical, but who established these ethical principles upon you? Rhetoric would lead you to conclude that values and morals are set individually by each person who is alone in his or her world since no one (nothing) exists. Still you decide to believe in the imaginary world.
