It looks like the world will have to decide which one is to survive!
This is a “future” world….fifty years from now!
The birthrate in so-called Europe is so low that there will be less people of younger age in Europe in 20 or 30 years than there will be an the increase in Moslem population throughout the world.
“Europe” will find itself becoming more Moslem. It will probably go to war to protect itself. It won’t be a civil war, it will be another type of conflict. But it will seem a war of “survival”. Survival of a type of “European culture” versus a survival of a so-called “Moslem culture” based on its religion.
Then, of course, “American democracy” and its so-called idea of “culture” will be at war with the surviving cultural battle between “Europe” and the “Moslem” culture or religion.
It looks like “war” is inevitable. As Winston Churchill said “…victory is the only successful result of war!!!”
After all, war is “survival of the fittest” .. the “survival of the strongest”.. the “survival of the most warlike”!
It is great to muse over the “results” of war, but, first and foremost, “victory is the only successful result of war”! Then go ahead and muse on….!!!
Perhaps this subject is giving you a headache!
Perhaps you may not wish to go on? …… Bye now!!! … But for those that wish to think ahead……
Think …Suppose we take a look at what made us think “war was inevitable” in the first place….
1).Birthrate in “so-called Europe” is lowering…. This is a present statistical fact. But why? Is the present generation so “material-survival” conscious that sharing a limited amount of material resource among more people is self defeating? Why is there such a “material” shortage? Could it be that in order to keep “living” easy, the governments have adopted ideas and regulations that encourage less effort and more government subsidy? Therefore, the production of more “material” has become less important than “living the easy life”? To keep the same standards of “living”, less material equals less people to share it with… lower birthrates!
2).If the so-called “standard of material living” is lowered, (i.e. less food, older homes, less maintained roads, schools, less of “material” things….) and there is no negative response, the populace merely acknowledges and will do with less … NO PROBLEM!!! BUT….
If there is an outcry, a discontent, what then? Do we look for someone or something to blame? Do we change our government, our policies, “our living is easy” culture? Do we just declare a war and divert our attentions to “victory is the only successful result in war” and try and figure out what to do “after”? There are choices!
3).Can we look to history for any constructive ideas? Some think America offers nothing to look at. After all, America is new… untested! America has, after all, survived many unique trials and tribulations in its 300 year old history. It’s not 3000 years old but certainly something that has stood a few hundred years has something to look at! America has, after all, achieved at least a “material standard of life” that is being envied by some. America has adopted laws and regulations that has encouraged individual rights and entrepreneurship. It’s not perfect but there is a continuing effort. America may not be everyone’s image of a “good life” (including some Americans themselves) but certainly there is SOMETHING to be studied and considered.
Some think that other cultures have other things to be considered… Religious theocracy, Monarchy, Dictatorship, Anarchy, Tribal rule, etc. All have something to be evaluated! Both good and bad!!! Even if war is not an answer, it will be inevitable unless thinking people once again are a major influence in policy. An intellectual idea is not a replacement for a human being… any human being. Because you possess an idea, a policy, does not necessarily mean that it would work or be successful … “for the greater good”. But war is the result of running out of useful ideas and the ability to communicate them to the majority of the people.
Do we have any real thinkers left?
Are we running out of ideas … ideas for “the greater good” of the people?
Do we have successful communicators?
Is a real “leader” a communicator or a “mighty ruler”? … Is physical force the only answer?
There is nothing in this world we can’t learn something from … good or bad!
Are we learning or don’t we want to be bothered?
Are we leaving the future to “momentum” or are we “thinking”?
“WAR is inevitable if we don’t learn, change and adapt.”
BUT …“Victory is the only successful result in war!”
