In Broede's Utopia.

Unfortunately, violence begets violence. It would be a wonderful world. If there were ways to avert violence. Period. You know. And I know. That won't ever happen. Because we live in a violent world. We'd have to change human nature. For violence to not occur. Maybe somewhere. On a planet. Somewhere in the vast cosmos. Filled with billions of galaxies. Filled with even more billions of solar systems.  Filled with even more billions of inhabitable planets. Yes, there's at least one civilization so far advanced that there's a non-violent world. Where every living being has effectively renounced violence. Under any circumstance.  That's where I want to live. In a place called Broede's Utopia. --Jim Broede
