I mostly agree with your post. I also agree that it is too idealistic and unachievable. It may oneday be achieved when the empasis is on EDUCATION, on EXPOSURE to other cultures, on abolishment of RELIGION (Yeah, right), on ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT (and a hell of a basic infrastucture development program in places where it is absent i.e.Africa, Albania, etc.) and the abolishment of the manufacturing of WEAPONS (yeah, right)... In other words politicians everywhere will try to exploit EVERY opportunity to retain power. Goodnight

>>What I would like to see eventualy, is the world witout countries and borders, without dividing people in serbs, americans, russians, albanians, minorities or majorities. Just people. Humans. Whenever you start thinking races and nationalities, you get racism and nationalism.<< The dream of my entire adulthood as what I consider myself, an internationalist. Unfortunately, this approach has been tarred and feathered by groups hard to fight, among them the extreme religious right. Yet I rather think that Christ, with whom I don't claim as direct and personal a link as some do, would have rather liked this idea, this dream. Oh when will it all end? And then begin? Raven
