Greetings bredrin,

Baba and Eja yes, excellent points bredrin indeed it appears to be so in this present time, though according to Chancellor Williams there have been great expanses of peace in the ancient Afrikan civilizations of Kemit, Nubia and Itiopia. one particularly lengthy period of peace in the then "known world" from the book " The Destruction of Afrikan Civilization" was begun when Taharqa of the Upper Nile region united Upper and Lower Kemit (by war) and moved the capitol to the south. by Dr. Williams assesment there have been periods of lasting peace amongst men amounting to nearly one thousand years. this has never occured again in history since the rise of the european to power.

Baba Marcus, also, i never meant the previous post in any religious context whatsoever i just sought to address the question you posed in your post....

"Is violence a part of the human and animal instinct?"
