The Leonard Nimoy song HIGHLEY ILLOGICAL is so true. The human race is highly illogical. I am one of the most illogical people on the planet, because like most of the human species I let my emotions control my actions rather then letting my logical side control my actions. I have found most people have this flaw. We are a truly illogical species. Another thing I have observed is the human race as a whole is very stubborn. I think that is why wars erupt. Everyone thinks their way is the right way and we are stubborn in our belief we are right. Because not everyone sees things the same conflicts arise. The logical thing would be for people to settle problems one on one calm and rationally, but being an emotional people we get upset, angry and at times prideful. We do not keep these discords between the 2 originally involved . We want people to think like us and to tell us we are right, so we will talk about the problems with our friends in the hopes they will say unto us yes you are right and that the other is wrong. At the same time the other is seeking out their friends to get them to say they are right. Slowly what was a disagreement between 2 can spread to whole countries which will in turn go to war against each other in an effort to prove which side is actually right. What no one sees is there is no right or wrong no good or bad no black and white the world is made of many shades of grey. The problem is the human race rarely sees anything other that that which they see as right. It is illogical.
I once saw an episode of M.A.S.H. there was a great line in it. Someone said to a Korean that they had their village back and the Korean replied What good does it do to win the war if you lose your home doing it. It is true no one wins when a war is fought in your own back yard.
