    What a bunch of leftist crap. Wrong species, wrong planet, wrong universe. Elimination of heaven/hell, countries, religion, etc. would not result in peace as utopianized by Lennon. Evolution doesn't stop, and it is inherently violent....peace is nothing more than a transient state.

    If there is one thing civilization has proven, not level of societal control can trump the spirit and nature of man. Man will self acquiesce to law in return for the collective strength than assures a temporal state of peace, when that status quo changes, there are violent shifts to a new temporal state. The more powerful/violent/brutal/willful the collective, the greater the magnitude of the peace state. But it's constantly in flux, and in the absence of external pressure, in will succumb to internal pressure.

    ..."leftist crap"?...if you say so.

    ...needless to say, he's a hero of mine, so I won't argue this point with you.

    Catchy tune, and I'm agreeing with him, he was a dreamer. I get the admiration, and his end was tragic, just don't get the hero label.

    Ya' know the more I think about it, I think what you said Tom, was exactly what John Lennon meant: "The absence of external pressure, will succumb to internal heart endearing pressure"

    Sorry guys, the 60s did nothing for world peace or societal harmony. It bred concepts like diversity, tolerance and political correctness....the holy trinity of namby pamby leftist bullshit 100% responsible for why the world is fucked 50 years later.

    Great fucking music, ignore the lyrics. No different that Rhianna tweeting today.
