The Greatest Honor History Can Bestow On Man Is The Title Of Peacemaker? by johnie: 6:18pm On Jun 27, 2011 |
My eye just caught the signature of a member of this forum (whose name I would not mention since this post is not about him/her): "The greatest honor history can bestow on man is the title of PEACEMAKER!" I find that statement quite intruiging because HISTORY would honour such people (but then history written by who?) but men rarely honour such people as world events SEEM to suggest: Olof Palme, was shot in the back while still Prime Minister of Sweden. While the real reaon for his assasination has remained a mystery till today, I think it had to do with his anti-war stance. He was in my opinion, a peacemaker but how much honour does he have today? How many men in history are honoured for being peace makers? |

Ngodigha: Nope! The point is peacemaker not vanquisher. Otherwise one would also class the likes of Julius Caesar, Pope Urban II, Alexander the Great e.t.c as peacemakers. |
