America acts the way it does today because we were dragged into 2 World Wars and the next would be an even worse catastrophe. The same reason we stayed in Europe, Japan, . Korea, etc.

For democracy to work you need the right people first - the ones in the 3rd world are not yet ready.[you have no idea about their mentality, I suggest you research]

Africa:
Defacto you would have to recolonize them, make sure the money goes where it's supposed to, and make sure you educate the people.

Once >70% of the people can read and write, you can give it another try.
Sounds like work for ~70 years.

Or we can just wait, we'll get the same result in 200 years or so.

Islam:
They just need their contemporary version of Luther and a elephant dose of enlightenment. Or just wait another 3 to 400 years...

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

True words of wisdom.

Sounds like a communist utopia .

1) There are things in those lyrics that would not make the world a better place in the view of many of us.
2) It would only take one person with ambition, political objectives, desire of power, or simply having a bad day to mess up the utopia in that song. People have always been, are, and will always be imperfect.
3) Cool song. Really, we played it at our wedding and everyone danced to it. I don't know anyone who hates that song.
4) I choose to take the song as someone's "dream" rather than a political manifesto. Drugs were probably involved in that dream lol.

1) I am holding out hope that SoW will be released this year. (really, it's possible if a publisher has been chosen)
2) Who ever said that Father Christmas/Santa Clause was not real?! Communist propaganda I say! lol
3) I am so attractive that my wife never even looks at other men. I know because she told me so.

Yes, I am the gullible slob at whom all advertising is directed .

JL was a communist with religious tendencies. He was advocating a one party state, no wonder any establishment didn't like him, except for the communists though. I mean look at all those drug taking, dirty long haired, unclean hippies listening to revolting music that surrounded suggestive lyrics - the pure makings of an evil empire.

The Grinch exists, but sorry Father Christmas doesn't. , my kids tell me so and SOW is first 1/4 next year
