Before a war military science seems a real science, like astronomy; but after a war it seems more like astrology.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
War is the science of destruction.
You can't come away with this cosmic perspective thinking that you are better than others and want to fight. That's why you'll never have astrophysicists leading nations into war.
The way that I see astrology is as a repository of thought and psychology. A system we've created as a culture as way to make things mean things.
Astrology is an aesthetic affront. It cheapens astronomy, like using Beethoven for commercial jingles.
The military don't start wars. Politicians start wars.
If you start studying history closer, you'll find that most all wars are based on false flag operations to get people - to convince the people that they're under attack in some way so that they will support the wars.
I leave to the militarists the difficult task of trying to explain to us how these wars have served to shape character or to promote the progress of civilization or to achieve the reign of justice on earth. So far, they have not come forward with the explanation.
War is a way of shattering to pieces... materials which might otherwise be used to make the masses too comfortable and... too intelligent.
War is mainly a catalogue of blunders.
You will never find scientists leading armies into battle. You just won't. Especially not astrophysicists - we see the biggest picture there is. We understand how small we are in the cosmos. We understand how fragile and temporary our existence is here on Earth.
