Which political ideology do you most identify with?
Do you think the human race will ever reach a point where war is obsolete?
While we are capable of higher reasoning, pattern recognition, and problem solving, we are also still a very instinctual species. All humans are capable of violence to some degree, and war is an extension of those violent instincts. No matter how pacifistic a society is, it must always be prepared to fight in the event that some outside, aggressive force seeks to dominate them. Additionally, one must never seek to declare war, but it is the direst of options best left as the absolute last resort.
