    If you could change one thing about this world for the better of our species, what would it be?

    Provide a little more than something along the lines of "free ice cream for everyone" because while this may be royally awesome, it doesn't actually benefit mankind.

    And please back up your answer with YOUR OWN reasoning, not someone else's.

    Be original guys n' gals, but other than that -- go nuts.

    Nuclear weapons need to be eliminated and the proliferation stopped.  Ideas like missile defense need to be squelched.  Star Wars missile defense is only providing false security for the believers in it.  We must have peace at all costs.

    When it comes to changing the world, we all have big ideas. I can't say that my ideas are any better than anyone elses, or that they are even more original. What I can say, is that I firmly believe each action could change the world for the better.... read more

    get rid of all money and have people work in their communiy and get their needs taken care of in return.  A lot of societies problems are a result of greed.

    Get rid of dogmatic useless religions full of empty promises and oldspeak babble, permanently shut down the TV as the greatest tool of the idiot generation, shrink government worldwide, restructure education making critical thinking 100% essential and encourage individuality as opposed to the herd that passes for humankind today. READ, READ and then communicate face to face...ask questions and question any authority.

    I would not change the world itself as I would like people to be more aware of the Spirit within; the connection between ourselves, Mother Earth and all living things. We indeed are all one - it is the Law of One.

    I agree with Jezebel as well.

    I just think that some people should not continue to breed. People need to be checked in the head before they can be given the opportunity to form a family. I am not talking about being perfectly sane, or religious, or of a specific race and culture, but seriously, there is a lot of dumb out there! And it seems to reproduce at a faster rate than "intelligence"

    I wish if I could change hatred to love, so that people may live peacefully and do not kill each other which is prevalent now a day. It sinks my heart down..
