Thanks for the support for the reconstitution of the United Nations. Another person who sees the benefits: <Every time there has been a transition from dictatorship or monarchy to democracy, it has involved cultural change and. therefore, education. In some instances, the cultural change has been gradual, in others, it has been forced. Since adherence to democracy is merely a way of providing a framework for social controversies, avoiding bloodshed and establishing fair ground rules, people are being asked for relatively little in adhering to it. That is why it is far different than a truly ideologically driven social experiment. Everyone has a stake in peace and prosperity, and only the most extreme elements could object to solving conflicts peacefully....... > Only in places like Iraq, Rwanda and others where there is major conflict do I think the process should be by way of conquest. For the rest, a voluntary decision to join after a process of education and 'finding the one true path to enlightenment' is better. Mqurice
