This is one of the phrases that gets tossed around like a bumper sticker but rarely defined. In this discussion I want to bring up some issues that I feel are the barriers to establishing Peace on Earth.
1. Domestic Violence. Peace on Earth is the aggregate expression of each human
accepting and loving every other human. DV, in my book, includes any person in
a child's life that they should be able to trust. Only 60 countries in the World are
reporting on this. We need to get emergency reporting and counseling to all
countries so we can direct the resources where they are needed. All human
violence is rooted in DV. Parenting is the most valuable resource we can
develop to achieve Peace.
2. Clean Water & Proper Sewage. As most of you probably know by now, my short
formula is Education + Prosperity = Peace. We are now in a World where
some children are lucky if they live to 5 because of polluted water. The world
population has exceeded the capacity for the natural world to absorb. We need
to quit wasting resources on destruction (War, new car every 4 years, tearing
down sound buildings rather than remodeling,etc.) and moving the resouce to
implementing proper water and sewage to begin to allow all people to
participate in the new global economy.
