Person help: Making a Choice for Peace.

Making a Choice for Peace.

I’ve heard so much that peace will not happen in our generation because people are the way they are. Since you are a person however, you have a choice whether to continue how things are going or to change them.
The challenge is for us to stand for Truth by taking action that honors the dignity and worth of every human being.
If you so choose to do so, you can start by being aware of any jokes or remarks that show disrespect toward ethnic groups, women or men, classes of people, religious groups, gays or lesbians. Be considerate of every person’s dignity and choose not to participate in disrespectful conversation.
Of course, not everyone can remember to act this way in every moment, but the only way to achieve change is to start is by trying.

Any other thoughts on the subject?

I think everyone is different and the way people take things is going to vary. I watch comedians slam people of all backgrounds and lifestyles, including my own, and wonder how they get away with it. I do think their skits relieve a lot of built up tensions between people, but that is jut my opinion. I think you are right on though in that we need to try and be more sensitive or empathetic to those around us. I do have many gay friends that do like to remark or joke about gay issues and gender issues though… I am not sure if they feel it is expected of them or if they are trying to make light of what has been an issue to some people in the world. I don’t necessarily participate in the remarks or joking, although I do laugh at their jokes. I also find that when I laugh at my own situations the world laughs with me …and not at me. I tread lightly until I get to know someone and how they will react to a joke. Everyone is different and I think that is why peace can be a challenge for some of us. Respect both ways is the key here… educating oneself, getting to know someone and appreciating that there are differences in this world.

That is what I try to live by. However, I find that it is actually a challenge to teach the same standards to my son. Even though he has a very diverse group of friends and is biracial himself, he and his friends tell racists jokes and don’t get it when I get upset and try to explain that such things are really unacceptable.
Their thoughts are that “If my Mexican friends laugh at and retell Mexican jokes, then they must be okay.”

I don’t think peace will always happen, but who cares about it. The only think I think is most important is justice, i don’t want peace, i want justice and equality and if I takes 20 million deaths for that I don’t care.

Good post though

True justice is a very dangerous thing to ask for. We all get away with things from time to time. If it is nothing more than the disrespect that UCUR is talking about. We are all guilty of something.

Good post, but I don’t think we will ever see the peace your looking for, but I agree that we can do our part to help. We may never eliminate it, but maybe we can reduce it some.

Man let’s just call out the Sugar Plumb Fairy and have he she or it wave their magic wand and then everything will be just hunky dory. Let me see, no Communist Dictaors, no Tyrants, no Religion too, above us only blue sky. I have a dream too, that is to be stinking rich off of dumb ***** like you. It aint gonna happen as long as these morons have their religions and ambitions and a lust for power. Do something instead of just dreaming about it. Stop the genicide in Africa, stop the unjust things happening to the Chinese citizens, stop the innocent from being unjustly executed, stop the hate in Northern Ireland. Sorry to burst your bubble but we don’t have a perfect world in the U.S. but it sure beats all the other places. Oh and remember if you aint a Catholic you’re going to HELL and if you aint a Moslem you’re an infidel and if you aint gay you probably don’t have aids.
