No I think the human race will always think war is the solution to every problem
Not with the way we are heading. Too many selfish leaders in control/power
I hope so, but sadly i don’t think so, there will always be people that believe in violence and a need for war, and many of these people are in power
No. There will always be bad actors. Petty, selfish people will always value their own personal gain more than the lives of those they are murdering.
I believe it could but it would likely take a long time
No I believe that war will always exist so long as humanity exists
@9KG69Y41yr1Y
I think that there will always be some countries which suffer from political instability, or have a lack of natural resources- e, g food and water so they fight, particularly in poorer countries.
No. Humans will always find something to fight over
@9K2N8NJ1yr1Y
Humans have a fight or flight response to things they are scared of, and sometimes those things are other people.
Human race will always be in a state of conflict, from the stone age to the future age. ranging from the petty augument in the office to the bloodshed of the battlefield. unless humans can agree to disagree and learn to share, respect each others space and communicate, then this sad state of being will always be.
@9JD7QVS1yr1Y
We are humans, we fight over everything. War and violence is part of who we are. We can never achieve true peace. Even if evetually we unite togethet, we will still be fighting a battle against somthing, whether it be ailens, our selves or somthing else. We will always end in war eventually.
No. War will always continue to happen and thrive as long as one people are marginalized and oppressed by another - as such, as long as religion continues to exist, war will continue to happen.
Yes. The whole population of the Earth should all strive towards a statelss world, gradually erasing our differences, segregation. However, this can only be achieved in a situation where the level of economic and living standards development across the world reach a relative equality.
I hope they will but at the moment it seems unlikely
What do you mean war is "obsolete?" People will always fight, you can't stop that, not unless everyone were robots. I don't think we ever will, unfortunately.
I think we are close and hopefully this will be the future i see. So yes.
I’m not sure. Despite changing the people in power in our country, that doesn’t change the terrorists that rule over other countries. We need to be prepared for anything and be ready to defend ourselves regardless of if a war if on the rise.
If nuclear weapons continue to be under control by idiots, yes.
War will not fade to obsoletion but merely shift into the futuristic era and be fought on different fronts such as cyber
It would be ideal to reach that point, but I don't think humanity ever will. There will always be leaders who think war is the only answer.
Yes with enough peace negation I think most wars will be stopped but not all
@9K7NP3V1yr1Y
Emphatically no. War has proved the engine of change and the midwife of history. If, in a future where war has become “obsolete”, it means that that future is something that claims to be extra historical, and is deeply suspect.
Yes, but it's very unlikely to happen any time soon
No, there will always be war, despite living in the most peaceful period of human existence there is still conflict. One unifying event would need to occur but that probably means lots have died or would. Depressing answer.
Yes, because of nuclear weapons wars are too dangerous for the modern world meaning that it would cause mass destruction, meaning just wars are very unlikely.
I don't, but I do wish that this will happen one day.
No, human nature will change the course of this, with the world that's been developed, it's impossible.
I don’t know if it ever will, but it should always strive to reach that point.
No, I would like to think we could, but everyone is invested in everyone else’s issues and the world is to wide spread
This is surely the desired outcome but will never come about if we don't learn to work together and make peace, unfortunately, I think taking recent events into account this will be very far in the future if it is going to happen.
No as there will always be conflict however we should engage in treaties to try and overcome this.
Unfortunately no, it is in our nature to "want" more, and sometimes people take this to the extreme of taking from others with violence.
Possibly. War is detrimental to the development of humanity, however, people who desire power (i.e. politicians) profit from war as it gives them the ability to control others and gain power through the acquisition of new land and resources, e.g. the Iraq War. Others such as arms manufacturers profit directly from war by selling weaponry. Effective propaganda and news agencies aligned with the ideology of the government convince the general population that war is a ‘necessary evil’ (though this is valid when acting in defence). It is only until the entire world realises this that the global population will feel compelled to stop participating in war, which is very unlikely as seen in countries with one party dictatorships like North Korea.
Yes as weapons become far more advanced it will be to costly for both sides to start a war.
No, there will always be someone who thinks violence is the answer, so we must be prepared for this.
No. There will always be someone who considers themselves to be strong and will seek to dominate others.
No. Governments and leaders are too selfish and focused on themselves and with differing views that war will always be inevitable
No, I believe that politicians will always be power-hungry and selfish enough to start wars, and this has been the case for millennia.
Humans will continue fight wars against each other and the reasons for killing each other will continue to be stupid.
I think that their will always be war and now it is changing to wars about recources
