When it comes to peace, how would you describe yourself?
I feel the pain in the world
What do you believe are the 'burning issues' today?
War, Hunger, Poverty, Education, Our Planet, Violence, Human Rights, Our Shrinking Freedom, Other
So what is it?
overpopulation
What must we overcome to achieve peace?
Religion
More
Religion is incompatible with personal freedom and rationality. Believing in the big father in the sky comes with a set of rules, and makes one want to force those rules on everyone else (especially when those rules are about what OTHER people should do, like women, or children). Even the most peaceful religions require the individual to do violence to themselves, warp and suppress their natural impulses, instead of learning to properly channel themselves. It keeps people occupied with questions irrelevant to the real burning issues out there. Religion is the opium for the people and needs to go the way of the Dodo bird, before people can start fixing what's threatening their very survival.
Can we change the world?
Not really
Promise to respect others and refrain from spamming?
Yes

I know everyone here is contributing in their own way to the Peace of the planet. I believe it is increasing exponentially, and we are well on our way to seeing Peace Prevail on Earth. But it has to start with each individual experiencing and being Peace, and then living it and encouraging all.
I wish you a Spirited week and many peace*full encounters.
Welcome, my friend. Your discussion is needed and will undoubtedly spark vigorous and healthy debate. I'm going to go there and disagree with you now : )
