I believe that any war is bad. Houses are burning, business is crumbling, relatives, relatives, friends are dying, there is no food and in general it is terrible to go out into the street. What is so good about it?

War is not good. Innocent people die. Is it good for you to die? Would you mind?

The difference between animals and humans is that animals behave instinctively but humans have sense and can make decisions (both good or evil).

War is bad, it is degradation, wrong way. With the help of war, many good people are being erased from the face of the earth, cities are being destroyed, development is being stopped.

Totally agree with you. The war destroyed many historical monuments. Researchers have lost unique objects. The war takes many lives. This contradicts the existence of man. I'm against war

War is not good. I could not imagine one of our family members will be sent to war. Many lives is destroyed. It is only good to those people who makes money from it.
Follow the story, and you will see that during the wars, technology is broken very much. Of course, there was a strong upsurge in developments during the Cold War of the USSR and the United States. But basically war is hunger, cold and destruction. And it's good only for those who make money in the war.

I agree with you. I have not seen yet another person who, after he was at war, said that war is good. I'm sure that war is evil. And technological progress is developing well without war

the war is never good, yes it might reduce the amount of people but it does not help to develop as people destroy other countries and other potentially talented people that means war is stopping the development not making it faster

btw when you say that war is beneficial wouldnt you mind to be killed just because of "evolution" of man kind or other "benefits"?

Nice words. War is destruction. People come to earth to develop and create. When people start destroying, they simply descend into lower levels of development and slow evolution.

I'd be willing to bet that war doesn't even put a dent into reducing population size.  UNICEF estimates that about 353,000 babies are born each day (source, article from last year so the numbers probably changed slightly).  The ongoing war in Syria, which started in 2011, has claimed an estimated 320,000 deaths (source)...and that's over a span of four years!


While humans have been killing other humans since the beginning is estimated diseases alone have kill and will continue to kill a lot more people than any war the world could ever hope.

War is good - profitable for people who manufacture guns.

If we compare the evil that brings the war with the benefit of which you speak, the benefit will be very small.
Therefore, it can be about not to talk.

War is good. War is a great equalizer. It is Darwinian tool to eradicate those seems not fit to survive. Most technologies we have today were products of war. Humans minds were force to its limits just to invent something to win the war.

You ever been in war? Or was war fought somewhere near you? Or you only played COD so you think you're master in firearms and surviving?
Seems like you would trade human lives for technology, not really moral thing to do. But you'll learn someday maybe, wisdom comes with age

War is bad for the soldiers that die and their families. But that's the type of war fought before we were all born. Now the wars are fought with bombing campaigns. Plenty of innocents dead. Kids and babies getting blowed up. War is bad always was and always will be. Only the elite, sitting in their mansions sipping their tea benefit.

War is only good for the Weapon Manufacturers, they make all the money selling weapons to both side. I honestly think weapon manufacturing is equivalent to blood money.

Yes, enormous money is involved in Weapon manufacturers, and where is big money involved, there is people who dont think about casualties, only profit. If someone here say war is good, maybe they never felt it on their own skin or their loved ones.

Agree. It hurts more when the victims and most affected ones were the innocent civilians.

There is only one good side of the wars, which is to contribute to the development of technology. Many innovations in the world are first made in military areas. Later on, these innovations are brought to a state that ordinary citizens can use.

For example, the internet infrastructure first started as ARPANET.

War is good for :
- resolving the problem of authoritarian government, imprisoning the president, even kill
- sales of weapons
- war vehicle sales
- soldiers can undergo a real test
- Decentralization of capitalism and civilization

War is bad for:
- Always be bloodshed and death of human life
- Colonizing natural resources and all major businesses
- Making the country into a puppet state

Whatever the title, war is about greed, attacks carried out to the countries of the Middle East is not beneficial for the country that was attacked. Only trigger a civil war that has not been completed to date. No one denied it, this just shows the power, and this could trigger a world war.

Dear author, it's clear why you consider war as not-so-bad, but every medal has reverse and in this situation it means a lot of blood.
Besides that, it affects many aspects of everyday life from individual to global, and one of the most important - economy. Nobody wants to invest in the place where peace isn't guaranteed.

Even those people who join the services for a career, they dont want war either.
Maybe with one exception, those who want to war have a screw loose.
Not forgetting the profiteers.

They join because they believe in the good cause of their work. No one wants to join an army which is fighting opponents you do not want to fight.

Like I said joining armed forces to kill some one else (screw loose) whatever excuse.
War is bad especially when they call civilians collateral damage. (Crime against humanity)

Quote
Göring: Why, of course, the people don't want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship.
Gilbert: There is one difference. In a democracy, the people have some say in the matter through their elected representatives, and in the United States only Congress can declare wars.
Göring: Oh, that is all well and good, but, voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.

The best thing about social-darwinists is always that they feel the world is not evolving the right way. But the point of evolution is that it is purposeless, and it is this indifference of nature that we as a species must overcome. Resources are practically infinite, the sooner we improve our technology to harvest them, the better, and wars are not helping.

Are you serious ? A war is never serious . If a war occurs, countries get 10 years back economically .

the war is never good, yes it might reduce the amount of people but it does not help to develop as people destroy other countries and other potentially talented people that means war is stopping the development not making it faster


I'd be willing to bet that war doesn't even put a dent into reducing population size.  UNICEF estimates that about 353,000 babies are born each day (source, article from last year so the numbers probably changed slightly).  The ongoing war in Syria, which started in 2011, has claimed an estimated 320,000 deaths (source)...and that's over a span of four years!


well ok i made a mistake, its not reducing it it slows the growth...

also you did not answer my question...

...you didn't ask a question....
im pretty sure he asked it though it seems it was an edit so you might have missed it...

I guess that depends on which war you are looking to. Look at all the casualities of the WOII ~ depending on your source - 72.000.000. I guess that does reduce the population size (and does reduce the population growth too). In times of war, also less children are born - I guess that something we can say as we've seen an huge increase in the amount of births after the war.

You know how you see anti-bullying public service announcements all the time now?  Well, small animals from cats to dogs and anything else tend to beat the hell out of each other.  It's a natural selection process to determine which genes spread and which don't, something that will never go away.

Humans happen to be animals, and the human social structure consists of:  

Individual > family > tribe or village > city state based on the same ethnocentric majority > affiliation of those city states to form a nation

Since we live on a rock with finite resources and finite space, the so called "bullying" extends past the adolescent stage all the way up to city states and nations in the form of war.  The main purpose of war is for groups sharing common genetic ancestry to compete against different groups and determine which ones will occupy this finite space and resources in the future.  This has gone on for thousands of years all across Europe.

The tragedy is not war itself, it's when the war movement is hijacked for something else besides the natural selection process for which it's intended.  "TPTB" do not use war for natural selection, they push Marxism, which is the antithesis of evolution and natural selection, while still participating in acts of war that serve no purpose besides maybe short term financial gain.

I'll join in here  Wink

That's not WHY....but rather, the obvious outcome.

Who is to say how humanity should evolve?  We have the technology to circumvent the trials and errors (so to speak) of natural selection with our knowledge of genetics and modification...but if we began artificially enhancing & perfecting everyone's genetic makeup, I'm sure the major pharmaceutical and insurance industries would have quite the hissy fit, to say the least...!  Grin


In my opinion, war is just a method to control most, and gain profit for few.  If humanity could unite under a central 'government' (I don't know what to call it without evoking images of 'New World Order' conspiracies) and channel the money (used for war and other bullshit) into a massive space colonization program, maybe then we could truly evolve.  Harvesting resources from asteroids, living in space stations or surface colonies; we would finally have a 'backup plan' in the event of a catastrophe occurring on Earth (it's going to happen one day, but who the hell knows when or how), and solve the burdens of pollution, overpopulation, and conflict over resources (although conflict is bound to happen in space because humans suck).

My vote goes towards the production and colonization of either O'neill Cylinders (img) (img) or the Stanford Torus (img) (img)

War, the best consensus mechanism

I'm sure everyone has seen the anti-bullying public service announcements on TV all the time now.  Well, small animals from cats to dogs and anything else tend to beat the hell out of each other.  It's a natural selection process to determine which genes spread and which don't, something that will never go away.
