Because man is his own worse enemy. Read up on history. Nukes have kept the peace.
who ever said we are the only ones in the Solar system? prove to me there we are. exactly..you can't :)
How do you know we are currently the only beings in the solar system?
Your assumptions may be false Earthling.
Who says we are?
it is about power who is better then the other,
cuz the god dang church of scientology & tom cruise
The things that men think up...oh did I just type that? ;)
I no
its horrible isnt it??!!
Haven't you seen Independence Day? If the aliens attack us, we need to be prepared to "nuke," them.duh!
We need weapons to eliminate ourselves which later on will make us realize how foolish we were.
I heard that we have enough weapons to destroy the Earth 7 times.
Weapons = Power
Simple explanation
Coz we humans are funny, stupid and smart at the same time.
WMD's have improves since Cain slew Able. More power seems to be the theory that mankind thrives on. We have the capabiity to actually destroy the entire planet. "Its the may dad can beat up your dad" mentality.
We don't. The Bible tells us more than once to 'Love One Another' and 'Turn the other Cheek'. All the arms race is a mine is bigger and better contest on a ridiculus scale
We need weapons that could potentially kill us all because of the absense of one basic human condition, trust.
We can't and don't trust the restraint of nations like China, Iran, North Korea, and in the past, the U.S.S.R.
So in summary, these weapons provide us with a security blanket so that we don't need to trust our world neighbors with our lives.
Hope it helped!
Fear of other countries ideologies is the only reason.
Nobody wants to be conquered.
Even if there are ET's we wouldn't be able to stop them with our technology.
in the words of Arnold in the terminator 2 "it's in your nature to destroy yourselfs".
Weapons are a type of power, the bigger the "gun" the bigger influence. Now, what are people mostly afraid of? Big guns. This is a way to ensure other groups, or nations hear their voices and make sure they're aren't being seen as subordinate.
The human mind is very unusual. People sometimes feel a compeling move to kill someone when differences stand in the way between them. This feeling has moved through the human body since the dawn of time. This feeling is part of the reason we have the weapons we do. The other reason is for defence and to kill animals for food, clothing, or whatever reason.
really good question there! :)
it is probably because humans are naturally insecure beings. they feel threatened by one another. hence, they think of ways to protect what they deem to be their personal territory. consider this. you ride a bus. you have your bag with you. somebody sits beside you. you tend to hold onto your bag more securely. you feel threatened that this other person is out to get something from you, or worse out to get you. really paranoid!! really illogical.!! really suspicious!! that's all of us, really.
cause we're not alone,man and the gouvernements know it,that's why they're prepared for futur alien attack
i don't see other explanation
Well Man well get mad at the other man for not giving him what he wants so then they end up killing each other with their violent weapons.
b/c they (weapons) are the vehicles which provide us (humans) the means to survive in our materialistic, monetary based world. I buy stocks and just get past the idea! Works for me!!
because we do
