Or is peace a personal character to be cultivated? Hi, professor logic. How come you quote me and yet say nothing about it? Peace comes when one is in harmony, both spiritually and socially. This is what I have come to understood in the past days. Peace is not something cowardly or rosily fantastical, or a piteous entreaty. It is earned as a prize by those who work hard and think hard. what do you think of it? i think its a lovely little pipe dream

yeah because that makes sense. forcing people to be "peaceful"
you do know that peace includes 'peace of mind',dont you?
i dont understand how anyone can have that while being scared shitless. thats like saying "so,yeah if you dont be peaceful,im going to break you over my knee and put my foot up your ass." i hope you see the problem with that. or your just stupid. suit yourself.
also, people will always have there differences, even if the peace are is forced.
if your feeling lazy just read this. your wrong because your scenerio is a contradicton and therefore,your point is void.

One can be mentally peacefull

Peace is relative, I said the following: Quote: Peace is what only a perfectly balanced and serene mind can attain One can be mentally peacefull indeed they can. i was referring to the physical kind of peace. lazily didnt read it, read it later, was too lazy to change it. my apologies though.

there is a lyric song in Turkey:I've never been able to tell/They've never been able to understand. I have a problem inside my heart/i can no longer keep this/i've never been able to tell...

No. There is a difference between remaining aloof, and having peace.

 Peace won't come when one's in momentary fear or too cowardly or mentally feeble to live his/her own life independently, responsibly and beautifully.

Unfortunately there are no chemical pills for a peaceful mind. But really religion helps a lot, wether it is Buddhism or Christianity or others.

"There is good testimony that long familiarity with meditation--months, years, decades--contributes to a person's clear-headedness, focus, and good humor."
