		Peace undoubtedly carries a positive connotation; almost nobody admits to opposing peace; world peace is widely seen as one of the most noble goals of humanity.
		In certain contexts, peace may refer specifically to an agreement concluded to end a war, to a lack of external warfare or a period when a country's armies are not fighting enemies, or to the quietude common at night or in remote areas that allows for sleep or meditation.
		Peace, then, is not merely the absence of war; it requires the absence of evil.

	peace - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		Peace is generally defined as a state of quiet or tranquillity, as an absence of disturbance or agitation (Latin derivation Pax = Absentia Belli).
		Peace can be voluntary, where potential agitators choose to abstain from disturbance, or it can be enforced, by suppressing those who might otherwise cause such disturbance.
		Proponents of the concept of positive peace argue that in a society where there is the structual and cultural oppression of one group by another, though there may be no violence, such a situation cannot be considered peace.

		In particular, Arabs are deindividualized and are often portrayed as intolerant or backward, while positive aspects of Arab culture are seldom given attention.
		As in the case of Anti-Semitism, prejudice against Arabs should be distinguished from opposition to the policies of Arab states or of certain Arab populations (specifically the Palestinian).

		The Muslims hold that the main written record of revelation to mankind is the Qur'an.
		The religion of Islam brought by Muhammad began in the Hejaz region of present-day Saudi Arabia in about 610 CE, and according to adherents.com (http://www.adherents.com) it now comprises 1.3 billion believers, 23% of the world's population.
		If the current growth rate of 1.76% per year (as of 2004) is simply extrapolated, Islam may reach 2 billion adherents shortly before 2030; it will not overtake Christianity before the 2070s, however, but since world population is projected to curb before that time, this estimate is unreliable.
