AS WE REMEMBER THOES WHO DIED. Ulog #18

in #ulog6 years ago (edited)

100 years ago the great war ended after the loss of more than 16,000,000 Thats SIXTEEN MILLION Lives were taken on both sides of the war. Just think about that for a moment. All thoes souls ceased to excist on this planet and for what? Because our elected leaders on both sides and leaders from around the world were unable to get around a table and solve the problem. In other words they wanted this war like all others. We are taught in school time and time again. Fighting solves nothing. But war seems to be ok. The Christian Bible clearly states.. Thou shalt not kill... How many
Wars have been waged over religion.

I think humanity will never learn; partly because of the sacred books that rule most culture’s deeds.
On the one hand it condemns killing as one of the commandments we are supposed to obey; on the other, it promotes horrendous slaughters on the basis of divine orders.
Ever since peoples decided to rule their lives by books written by men (too long ago to have currency on most matters) but allegedly inspired by some deity, every party has stated to be inspired and justified by divine providence and therefore more than willing to sacrifice their people for an allegedly just cause. Seen that way, all causes seem just and worth dying for.
I particularly find the very concept absurd, but, judging by the endless list of wars and the one still to come, it seems to me that the concept is accepted by most, at least by most of those who are in a position to make decisions.
Most soldiers who have fought wars have also declared themselves believers in some God (mostly the Christian God). If, as true believers, they respected the fifth commandment, we would not have had any wars.

Thank you Brother. I know you get it. But even without the religious wars or excuses our leaders would find other ways to wage war. Because of the religion of Capitalism. So we have to field better ambassadors to represent us . Peace and Love .

War is the most lucrative business on Earth. All orchestrated by Freemasons. Albert Pike. Satanist.

Yes my Friend. It is very lucrative for both governments and the huge war industry. And for PMCs.... Ex special forces who set up to move drugs and money around the world. Not so sure about Satán as he was a construct of modern day Christianity. Peace and love
