Perhaps you think this implies that peace will never be possible? I don't think so. Peace is possible, but it hasn't been tried seriously, so far.
"World peace is not only possible but inevitable."
"Whether peace is to be reached only after unimaginable horrors precipitated by humanity's stubborn clinging to old patterns of behaviour, or is to be embraced now by an act of consultative will, is the choice before all who inhabit the earth."
(From: "The Promise of World Peace")
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
