The world would be a horrible, ugly and unnatural place. Variety and differences are what creates the possibility for balance and harmony, which is vital in nature, and the universe as a whole. If everyone was the same, it would probably ultimately lead to the end of the human species. I suppose that would be better for the rest of nature, but not for people!

yes... but if we were exactly the same there will be no wars, no hunger, there will be silence...

I don't agree! If everyone was the same, and thought the same, there would be no need to speak to each other, as everyone would know how the other person felt, what they were thinking etc. And isn't it often the people who are most similar who argue and fight the most?! There would still be the need to establish a pecking order, the need to stand out, and the competitive thing happening. It's just that with everyone being as strong as each other, and having the same weaknesses, everyone would know how to destroy all the others, and would set about doing that. It would also drive everyone mad, as they would feel their existance to be futile (with so many other versions of themselves), so they may all end up by killing themselves. Unhealthy and unnatural circumstances never give good results, and the human need for individuality would out!

if all of us will think and act the same, the world's a disaster! no need for us to keep alive. no need for mylot, too. we'll all have the same questions and we'll answer the same answer. so, it's gonna be really ugly.
