Your comment shows you have a very narrow view of things like "battlefield", "enlightenment", and, ironically, what the internet is to the vast majority of humans. Nationalism is indeed an insidious concept. I know i am not a psychopath, but i am not so different from them. You are a mental midget. I assume it is because you are, or esteemed by a small peer group as, inordinately good at some "valuable" skill. Despite this, you are probably not very notable in very many categories. You probably wish you were a 'path or some other distinct brand of different. But you aren't. You are just a person that is good at something, maybe. Why this has developed into a childish fear/loathing of the differently endowed is interesting from a diagnostic standpoint. If you ever get the chance to see a battlefield, or a battle for that matter, you may be unpleasantly surprised at how little has changed in the nature of death. True, the way we deliver the rock has changed, but we still just through rocks and try to make peoples' insides their outsides. It is the attempt to kill, and the counter-attempt to stop the killer, that drives offensive/defensive innovation. The clan aspect of scientific research guarantees that even highly specialized approaches to war making will spin off unintended devices and methodologies. I believe that the internets of the future as well as a growing understanding and incorporation of "aberrant" personalities will lead to a Pax Humanitae, but only if narrow, hidebound idiots like you are relegated to the peanut gallery.

The stuff you wrote above is pretty twisted. Forget for a moment about the gist of our argument, which I was looking forward to discussing, but no more because it devolved into ad-hominem attacks on me, of which you know next to nothing about. I sense that what you wrote above represents a dominant line of thinking, where you look down upon others & their abilities, while putting violent destruction on the pedestal above and beyond what it actually merits. This leads me to think that you were abused physically and mentally at one point in your life, and it still affects your mindset today. If so, I hope you can find a way to heal yourself. Perhaps adopt a pet if you don't have one. You'll be amazed what a dog can teach you.
