    Revolution is forced, radical change, as compared to gentler evolution. Revolution is the same as war, really. Whether it's good or not depends on whether you believe in the use of deadly force - lots of people getting killed/tortured and property destruction. Revolution generally leaves wounds which take many generations to heal. As well, revolutions are sometimes wrong. Thus, mankind could be steered down a wrong course. Revolutionary change could be compared to the mass extinctions by asteroid or vulcanism, or other such violent natural phenomena. George bush, the last revolutionary, rip.

    Evolution, on the other hand, is slower but more true, imo. It follows then, that the ways of the un are better than the ways of george bush etal.
