 We might not like the idea of conflict, but isn’t its ''absence'' even more horrifying?
-The absence of conflict implies a settled ''consensus'', that all mysteries have been resolved, all questions answered, all [[unknowns]] eradicated. It implies total homogeneity of need, want and value. There is no partisanship, no contest, no sport, no competition for resource. There is none of the uncertainty, or opportunity of life: we are on known and understood rails; what we must do to stay upon them is clear and can be automated.
+World peace — ''the total absence of conflict'' — implies a settled ''consensus''. It takes as a given that all mysteries have been resolved or at any rate agreed upon, that all possible questions have catalogued, taxonomised and satisfactorily answered, that all [[unknowns]] have been eradicated. World peace implies ''total homogeneity of need, want and value''. There are no inventions left, no efficiencies to be gained, no services to be improved, no sunlit uplands to move towards.
-There are no disputes, doubts, disagreements or contrarians. A contrarian would, if one were even possible, be simply ''one who is wrong''. But a contrarian, or an erroneous person would not be possible, for she might dispute the consensus and create a conflict.
+World peace allows of no tribes, no cultures, no in-groups; no partisanship, no contest, no sport, no allegiance, no competition for resource. It requires no hesitancy, no uncertainty, no opportunity of life: the objects of universe are mapped, their infinity of trajectories mapped, calculated and projected to the end of time; that we are disempowered automatons on strict deterministic rails; we know and accept and will doggedly do that, and only that which is required to stay upon them.
+There are no disputes, doubts, disagreements or ''contrarians''. If one were even possible a contrarian would simply be ''one who is wrong''. But a contrarian would not be possible. ''Error'' would not be possible. Indecision would not be possible. If it were possible to err, it would be possible to dispute the consensus, and that would create ''conflict''.
 Lasting world peace implies, in short, ''the end of days''.
