How will it end?

[Dac]

At the rate mankind is creating technology to kill him all the more faster wat do you believe will cause us to be eradicated from this earth...personally it would be from overpopulation followed closely with world hunger and thirst..

[Funka Genocide]

I'm a bright eyed optimist, so I say the eradication of man from this planet will be due to an intergalactic exodus which will occur sometime before the Sun explodes. Spreading the human species throughout the universe. As good as we are at killing eachother, were even better at making more of us, I mean seriously, what would you rather do?

How will it end?

Not with a bang, but a whimper.

Its really hard to say. I mean we're perfectly capable of killing ourselves off, between our Nukes & making the Earth less & less habitable.

But then again, maybe once the problems get so bad that politicians can't claim they no longer exist, things might start to happen and we'll come back from that brink.

Frankly, prediciting the end is a bit hard, as there are too many variables to predict.

Then again, maybe it'll be the Giant Star Goat which gets us in the end.

Even after nuclear war, overpopulation, lack of food and water, fossil fuel depletion, and any other disaster, humans probably won't die off. We're dumb, but we're hardy. I don't think we can kill eachother off completely. There'll always be some survivors who can rebuild.

So, how will it really end? There's 2 schools of thought:

1. Somebody's religion turns out to be correct, and therein lies the solution.
2. Evolution is correct, and, because humans have peaked amazingly, they'll be overthrown when the crocodiles gain the capacity for high technology.

There is a fourth, I guess...
That is the asssumption that, by the time the sun goes out, humans will have no ability to travel to a habitable planet. This is largely possible because we are always at risk of running out of Earthly resources that we need to study the stars. But even still, we should be able to inprovise forever, or so I'd think. So this end is unlikely.

Let's see the possible ways I believe the human race could end:
1.) nuclear war
2.) giant asteroid
3.) the moon falls out of earth's orbit causing a shift in earth's gravity causing mass flooding and earthquakes
4.) an alien species came and killed us
5.) the apocalypse
6.) the sun will burn out which we'll find out in the next 8 minutes
7.) a new disease will break out that causes the dead to rise and prey on the living
8.) Mutants did it
9.) Robots did it
10.) Killer Tomatoes did it
11.) I did it

I am also quite optimistic. I really don't care much if I die older then 50 or 60, and I will commit suicide if the world will definetly end. But I think humans won't just die out. I believe humans will evolve on and humans won't die out, Homo Sapiens Sapiens will die out and be replaced with something smarter, better and possibly peacefuller. There might even be many species.

All I have to say is..... the Matrix.

Hokay, so, here's the earth. It's chilling. "Damn, that is a sweet Earth" you might say. Ruling out the icecaps melting, meteors becoming crashing into us, the ozone layer leaving, and the sun exploding, we're definitaly going to blow ourselves up.

Hokay, so basically, we've got China, France, India, Israel, Pakistan, Russia, the UK, and us, with nukes. We've got about 2600 more than anybody else, whatever. Hanyway, One day, we decides those Chinese sons of a bitches are goin' down. So, we launch a nuke at china. While its on its way, China is like "SHIT SHIT who tha fuck is shooting at us?" "Oh well, FIRE MISSILES!"

Then France is like "Shit guys, because missiles are coming! Fire our shit!" "But I am le tired!" "Well, have a nap. THEN FIRE ZE MISSILES!!!"

Meanwhile, Austraila is down there like "wtf mates?" India, Israel and Pkaistan launch their shit, and we got missiles flying everywhere, passing each other. Russia is like "AAHH MOTHERLAND!!!!!" Then England is like "'bout that time, eh chaps?" "Roight-o."

So now, the US is like, "Fuck, we're dumbasses," Canada's like "What's goin' on, eh?" Austraila's still like "wtf?" Mars is laughing at us, and some huge meteor's like "Well, fuck that."

So, now we got nuclear winter, and everyone's dead, 'cept Austraila, and their still like "wtf?". But they'll be dead soon. Fucking kangaroos.

BUT, assuming we don't blow ourselves up, all us Californians just have to worry about California breaking off from the United States. To go hang with Hawaii. Alaska can come too.

But seriously, I'm waiting for the meteors to come and kill us all. The glaciers are waay too slow.
