Mighty Philosophical of you sir ^_^

Now, about the subject. You saw what happened to people when subjected to the Apple, they lost their right mind, thus they lost their ideas. They lost their productive thinking, meaning humanity will never prosper if left in a state of absolute silence. You'd impose peace through force, then things will never change, as if human kind was dead. George Lucas would have never created Star Wars, Patrice Desilets would have never created AC, Leonardo would have never painted the Mona Lisa, and Steve Jobs would have never made the iPhone.

A good example of productive thinking, through free will, is the City of Rapture. What was the motto? "No Gods or Kings. Only Man".....They were not limited by their tyrannical rulers, or the religious deities of various religions. What they accomplished through free will was extraordinary. The discovery of ADAM, the use of Plasmids. the creation of robots and the Big Daddies, they prospered because of their free will!

Now, if peace is implemented through force, then their would be no wars, no deaths and no chaos, but in the process, everything would be desolate of any change. The future would have never come. People would still think the world is flat. We would have never discovered the technology we have now, and we would still be rubbing sticks together for fire.

War does not root from free will, but from instinct. Someone punches you, how would you respond? Punch them back, why? Instinct. Korea launches a nuke to New York, how does America respond? Launch their nukes, why? Instinct. We respond to fire with fire because we feel threatened. If peace through force was implemented, we'd save ourselves from this war. But what of the country? Economics, Agriculture, Population. They'd all cease, due to the lack of rightful thinking. It's as if humanity was dead.

So, in the end, the assassins are right. What they are fighting for is right.....Wait a minute, what are we talking about?
