Peacemaker Jason Harper from Chicago

We have finally realized that the Internet is much more than a network of computers.
It is an endless web of people. Men and women from every corner of the globe are
connecting to one another, thanks to the biggest social interface ever known to humanity.
Digital culture has laid the foundations for a new kind of society.
And this society is advancing dialogue, debate and consensus through communication.
Because democracy has always flourished where there is openness, acceptance,
discussion and participation. And contact with others has always been the most
effective antidote against hatred and conflict.
That's why the Internet is a tool for peace.
That's why anyone who uses it can sow the seeds of non-violence.
And that's why the next Nobel Peace Prize should go to the Net.
A Nobel for each and every one of us.

so many mean comments, so I thought I would leave a nice one...

I don't have anything to say though...

How can the "internet" win a noble prize.. .. thats like saying "This noble prize is awarded tooooo THE OCEAN!" *throws noble prize in the sea* "Welldone ocean, good job with your H20 and stuff..."

Jason, you're the dog, man!

Come to germany and let's have some beers :)

agreed the internet should be used in a positive way

[dotparka]

Not a bad idea about the potentials of the internet - but I think Jason nailed it with the word "belief". Belief is half the battle - it is that force that carries us through periods of doubt and sadness, it raises us from our malaise.

Any positive message is worth hearing.

Thanks

If you do one more cliched scene cut I'm going to blow your head off. It was cool and trendy the first time 1 person did it. Now its on every freaking movie on this forsaken shit hole website.

world peace isn't odd - anything is possible - but - world peace comes with a hefty price tag -

the price for peace =

no money

no religion

no army

no prison

are you willing to pay that price??
