But what about us humans? In nature, the weak die. That's nature though, and civilized people know we can't let nature take its course in this aspect. We help out the weak. No matter what political mumbo jumbo agenda people have, there is always some sort of help for those who can't help themselves. But should we apply this same bypass of the natural world to war? Is it our not only right, but duty as humans to save ourselves from the satiation of nature?
But say this moral dilemma is decided on, and say we decide war is not ok. What if a rouge country decides to use violent force anyway? Or start arming themselves and refuse to cooperate? We would need to defend ourselves, or take action so we won't have to.
As you can see, this 'ritual' of war and discussion of it raises more questions than it answers. It's gonna take quite some time to figure it all out.
