Why all this fighting today!

Hi! I'm wondering why people all over the world can't try at least to understand each other's beliefs and learn to live together in respect. All the killing and fighting doesn't make any sense to me. I have always believed in a God. I don't think we are here on this planet for nothing. If this life we have is all we have then nothing we try to do right would make any sense. I think it is time for the world to stop trying to blame each other for things we don't understand and start trying to live with each other in peace. Why are there so many people who seem to want nothing but death. I really believe God has given us this planet to take care of and we have made a mess of doing this. I am praying for peace in this world and hope some day our world will be a peaceful world. Peace be with you!
