Dear Friend:

I write to you for help at the suggestion of a friend.

Through the release of atomic energy, our generation has brought into
the world the most revolutionary force since prehistoric man's discovery
of fire. This basic power of the universe cannot be fitted into the
outmoded concept of narrow nationalisms. For there is no secret and
there is no defense; there is no possibility of control except through
the aroused understanding and insistence of the peoples of the world.

We scientists recognize our inescapable responsibility to carry to our
fellow citizens an understanding of the simple facts of atomic energy
and its implications for society. In this lies our only security and our
only hope -- we believe that an informed citizenry will act for life and
not death.

We need $1,000,000 for this great educational task. Sustained by faith
in man's ability to control his destiny through the exercise of reason,
we have pledged all our strength and our knowledge to this work. I do
not hesitate to call upon you to help.

        Faithfully yours,

        [A. Einstein]


add another million and will take care of those Monster Asteriods for
you...

Germ Warfare...add another million.

It is actually wise to avoid military conflicts altogether. but atomoc 
bombs are just too desasterous to even think about them.

They could eventually wipe out mankind altogether or destroy the entire 
planet.

But how could we avoid wars?

Well, that is actually difficult.

Most people do not think much further than their nose is long, while 
having appatite for wealth and power.

To overcome the problem, we need to think about other means to solve our 
problems than war.

War is by all possible means the most destructive activity, humans could 
possibly have.

So we need to think more in positive, creative terms, rather than to 
grab things, which are not ours.

Positive, healthy and creative actions make us benefit from our doings 
afterwards, while destruction does the opposite.

So we could try to understand other nations, rather then impose our will 
on them.

We could try to help others, rather than robbing their belongings.

We could forgive, rather than seek revenge.

And we could clean up the mess we made, rather than litter the entire 
planet with our waste.

All such things are better than destruction and could evetually prevent 
wars.

Based upon everything else Joe Biden has managed to botch, I say he will turn them on shortly after 
the nation has been turned to ashes.

Joe Biden is like a parachute that opens upon impact.
A complete and utter failure.
