"Adam and Eve will know what peace is, and why only war seems to ever attain it...."
"For what is it of human nature? To not pick up one's steel and run his neighbor through? How is peace attained without first
spilling the blood of those who lock it away for themselves? By speaking to them ever so eloquently, to persuade them to give up what the deem to be so rightfully theirs? Nay, we force it from their hands, and strike them with all due righteousness, and bring them to their knees and make them
kiss the feet of mercy a hundred times, only to make them beg for death, and willingly oblige the demand with haste. What is the human nature to not understand the way of war before peace? Humans know no other recourse but to destroy their invisible enemies and make them further ghosts, only to have them reemerge a thousand years later with the anger of a god in their eyes. Such is a humans reasons for war written under the most false of pretenses.
The humans know only war, as a means to achieve their peace, and if this is so a millennium from now, it will always be right to them.
Therefore, perhaps humans are the most brilliant creatures in the universe, for they alone know that a world the is only peaceful, is a world that cannot exist." |
