No, and I didn't say so. Peace is the ultimate utopia, if you can achieve it. I said the song is silly - specifically many of the lyrics. Follow my links to see why.

Sometimes wars are forced upon us. Hitler did it. Now Islam is. Unless, of course, you consider the possibility of the west capitulating and living as dhimmis under Islamic sha'aria law as the epitomy of peace. Islam views it as such. Perhaps you agree?

It would be lovely if there was no evil in the world but, as you and I know, that's only going to show up later on in this world.

"Sin will be vanquished from the earth and the wicked will be no more; my soul, bless the Lord. Hallelujah." - Psalm 104:35

it is a song for crying out loud.
It's a song that expresses nonsense from a historical and philosophical perspective. "Silly Nilly" is a fitting description indeed.

But if you think sitting in a circle singing Kumbaya-Kumbaya is going to bring peace and harmony to mankind, then by all means do so.

You seem to have a heart like stone it appears Avon Lady.
I am a realist. I do not care for pessimism and I hedge myself against fantasy based optimism.

You don't know me. Nor my family. You haven't an inkling of the charity work and community activities that I'm involved with. You have no concept, so it would seem, of the adoration and appreciation I personally have for my country of birth, the United States, for my grave concern for its citizens, for my pain in what I witnessed on 9/11 and for my fear of what's coming up in this world that may potentially affect most everyone around the globe.

I don't have a heart of stone any more than you have eyes of lead for not being able to see me for what I am. Like I said, you don't know me.
