Is OUR WORLD on the threshold of achieving peace or on the brink of stratification? A case can be made for the opposite posers. What is your own view?
One one hand, some world leaders usually speak confidently of world peace as an attainable global goal.
On the other hand many fear to speak about it due to happenings in the global scenes?
Are you afraid to vent your idea? History shows that rivalry and prejudice have long stood on the way of achieving global unity and religion have often being a conspirator in fanning the flames of conflict rather than extinguish it. James A. Haught a journalist said "Anything that divides people, community, nation, class ...can spawn hostility and prejudice, and religion is one of the strongest dividers". Do you believe that? Author Steven Weinberg said "Despite the universal belief that religion makes people `good`, it's obvious that it makes some people commit heinous crimes". Do you belief that?

Is there any hope that our world will ever be united? What can be done to make our world a truely global village, a truely global community where trust and nobility will be accentuated?
