What do you mean by, 'where are you', EXACTLY?

And, 'it is time', for 'what', EXACTLY?

WHICH 'war'?

And, WHY ONLY 'the war', which you are referencing here?

WHY NOT ALL 'wars'?

BETTER STILL, WHY NOT PREVENT ALL 'wars', INSTEAD of STARTING ANY 'war'?

Yes, the ONLY ones FIGHTING EACH OTHER here are 'you', adult human beings.

When I know more I will tell you. Until then I have made a "check-in" thread in the lounge where we can all check in with each other.

Then tell us how to stop.

Nothing can stop a war from happening, no more than a single raindrop can prevent the rain from falling, nor can a single drop of water stop a flood from flooding an entire city, nor can a single drop of water prevent a dam from bursting and drowning everything in it's path.

There's just what's happening, and there is nothing making what is happening happen, nor is there anything that can unmake what is happening.

Metaphorically speaking, we all go down on the same sinking ship.

Dontaskme, there is no ship that is sinking. It's just you and I who are sinking. We will hold on as long as we can. However, even that cannot be eternal. We've done all we can in the name of something much larger than you and I are. We have translated all the thus far existing metaphysics of Earth into one single Metaphysics. Now we must hope that all will be well. If there is a God, then all will be well. If there isn't, then who knows the future? I don't know what God is or anything about God and I don't know what is in the future. But I think it's best for me to leave this forum to the next generation of metaphysicists, philosophers, thinkers, religious thinkers, and dreamers, as well as the ignorant, confused, and misguided who need them to point the way. There is no more for me to do on this forum. If God has any other use for me, then I shall do my best.

The black and white squad car, Porsche 10 cylinder engine, growled like a lion and it was a lion ... among cars, built for the kill. It zipped past the man, dressed in a brown suit, carrying a black leather briefcase, sirens blaring. Swerving through traffic, dodging cars, trucks, motorcycles, pedestrians, it caught up with the car that had as its occupants 3 men, men who'd just robbed an armored vehicle carrying a million dollars. There was a police chopper above.

So, are 'you' TELLING 'us' that 'you', adult human beings, in the days when this was being written, did NOT KNOW HOW TO STOP FIGHTING "each other"?

If 'children' ask me to TELL 'them' to STOP FIGHTING WITH "each other", which HAS HAPPENED, then I just PUT BACK ON 'them' the ABSURDITY of THIS REQUEST.

If 'you', adult human beings, (just MORE 'children' in Life) Truly WANT to be TOLD HOW TO STOP FIGHTING, then FIRST 'thing' to do would be to FIND OUT and UNCOVER WHAT 'you' ARE FIGHTING OVER or FOR, EXACTLY. That way 'you' WILL BE SIDE-TRACKED for LONG ENOUGH, TO STOP FIGHTING, and WORK OUT and UNCOVER WHY 'you' ARE FIGHTING. AND WHEN one LEARNS, and/or DISCOVERS, and Truly KNOWS and UNDERSTANDS 'WHY' 'they' FIGHT, THEN they HAVE 'what' IS NEEDED to JUST STOP FIGHTING WITH "each other".

Let 'us' KNOW HOW 'this' WORKS OUT, for 'you'.
