LMAO...That was TOO funny.......OH, did you see when he broke my wrist restraint?...Apparently he doesn't like being tied down....'Tis a shame...lol

end of the world

Call me an optimist but I don't believe humanity will ever really end. That doesn't mean that we may not end up living in our own filth and decay but by the time that happens we'll have found a way to rationalize it so that it seems as if all is right with the world. I don't think thats going to happen though. I know things look pretty bad right now but the world has been progressively getting better since the first human stood up and started to manipulate the world around him. There have been setbacks and dark ages but slowly things get better and people become more tolerant, healthy, and fulfilled. The "apocalypse" we're all waiting for just serves as an excuse for us not to think about the wellbeing of future generations. Personally I hope there is some kind of rapture thing so all the fundamentalist Christians can go be with god and stop dragging the rest of us back into the slime.

Well America's gonna blow up within the next 30 to 40 years, but in terms of the WORLD, I think it won't be in out lifetime or our children's lifetime... but THEIR kids are doomed.

Want me to do a Tarot reading about it? hahahahaha:D Sorry to all you naysayers. I was kidding.

Anyway, as a Pagan, I believe 100% that escatological stories are just that. Humanity can be wiped out easily, however we don't completely have the power to destroy the world. So, given that, I think the Earth's core will go cold (if it hasn't already and we just don't know it yet) or the sun will finally die. By this time evolution will have taken such crazy turns that the idea of a "primate" will no longer be considered vogue.

I gotta say, I love the new nickname.

And the avatar is a wallpaper from a band.

Ever read 1984? Im not even close to all the way through it...but it's such a great book.

The theory that all memory of *this* time period will be lost, and we'll all kind of be war-loving drones interests me. There will be a general discontent, but no one will remember why. I'm not sure "humanity" will ever end, but we with the way the world is heading, we'll become less than human.

It could have been millions of years ago and they could have been every bit as advanced as us (maybe even more so.). They could have had the same problems with coexistence that we do and they could have obliterated their entire race with a nuclear war (or something of the sort. There's no telling whether they'd have invented nuclear weapons or not, but just for the sake of this story, they did.) So this civilization ends up destroying itself with it's own weapons... I'm talking eradicated, nothing left.

Evolution would go back to square one, and we'd climb out of the proverbial ooze as cavemen, never even knowing the prior civilaztion existed.

And before you say that we would have found remnants from them, try to remember this is before dinosaurs, cavemen, or time as we know it. And also, they were completely eradicated.

We'd never know. The same thing could happen to us. We destroy the world and everything in it and then evolution starts back at square one wth some other dude climbing out of the sludge.

Well to believe this theory you'd have to first believe the theory of evolution and if you believe that ridiculous concept than this one shouldn't be that much of a mind fuck.
