Yeah you're right. I like your idea about cooperation without the need for an enemy, by the way.

Reply to comment by JasonVanJason in The gray areas in your morals are one of the main defining characteristics of you. by mcshadypants
Morals have never been a construct of society and to think one event in the last 100 changed anything is ridiculous

Reply to comment by Bosmonster in Adoption is the 'skip intro' button for parenting. by thedbm
I don't know age/adoption stats, however my GF and ger 2 brothers were all adopted, all between 3 and 9 months old.
I think they were pretty much clean slates, and I think that may still be in the "intro."

Maybe an existential threat is what it would take to bring everyone together.

Yes!!
"That's a made up word!" "That's a made up holidayyy"
All words and holidays are made up lol. People don't like sudden change but we will always evolve to the time we are in, including traditions and speech.

Reply to comment by SunBlindFool in cereal is the only food that can be made and ready to eat in under a minute, yet after 5-10 minutes is almost completely unedible by Such_sublime
Came here for this.
When I was younger, I would let my Cap'n Crunch sit for a few minutes so it could get a little soggy.

Reply to comment by Crux_AMVS24 in The direction of temperature is arbitrary. There is no reason for hot objects to be assigned a larger number than cold ones by Crux_AMVS24
I gues you could do something like a scale in which the number represents how far you are from boiling water, in which 0 would be boiling and anything hotter would go into negatives.
However, this is not as intuitive; 0 kelvin being absolute cold makes more sense.

Reply to comment by subzero112001 in 3.8 billion people believe human life started with a Man and His Clone by Acceptable-Shape-528
Nope. You believe God always existed, materialists believe the material has always existed. Thank you for proving the effect of your beliefs on you and thank you for admitting that theism is so obviously undefendable that the only thing a theist can do is slime their way out of accountability. :)
You are transparent, and I don't care that you don't want to be accountable to your beliefs. You theistic Narcissists are nothing but evidence of what theism does to people.

Maybe "peace" is meaningless without humans to observe it?

If you have the soapbox and people are listening, you could invent a word like "cromulent" like The Simpsons did, and it could become an accepted part of the language.
Shakespeare also invented words that later became accept (i.e., became perfectly cromulent).

So is world peace. People are all flawed and there's no escaping it.
