Our sacrifice should not be of the living, as in the case of the whales , but in those not yet born into this world. It is far more cruel to bring something out of the peace of oblivion, put it on this planet and then kill it through famine, or war. The ultimate meaning in life may be to protect the future. Thursday night everyone attends the sermon , a church of the ill informed no longer a slave to the news from the mouths of babes a news reformed through sight and vision of a Nixon sweaty brow loosing to the finely chiseled features of a Kennedy world in the making War as Transformation Many people look for reason in warfare. The reasons humans decide to kill each other are varied.
Many wars start over land, difference of religion and culture, or economic stress.
While there have been many wars over the years that man has inhabited this planet, World War I sticks out because of one incident that took place during the war. They shared food and drink, and exchanged pictures of loved ones. They laughed and sang and tried to cross language barriers that the day before seemed insurmountable. The following day, they returned to their trenches, reinstated the boundaries of the war and began to fight anew. Even to this day, war is sometimes suspended for religious reasons, and no one finds this absurd or shocking.
