Speaking of which, I heard a rather amazing quote today, I don't remember it word for word so I'll paraphrase: "Everybody dies twice, really. Once when their heart stops beating, and again when people stop using their name.
I hate to sound pessimistic, but what if the world ends some time soon? For instance, the next ice age is supposed to happen around now, given or take a few 1000 years. And if it does come soon, would global warming help to maintain the Earth's temperature? Would "destroying" the Earth actually end up saving it?
Actually, the next Ice Age is predicted to be in the next 50,000 years. By then we should have the means of colonization on other planets, or at the very least the technology to thrive in such an environment
Hmm, I must of read the wrong information. Again, this brings up another question: If the change in climate is going to happen all of a sudden, how will we be able to adapt quick enough? It'll take some time to develop the technology and I don't think people on this planet are keen on colonising on other planets. By the time we are ready to live in this new environment, the human race would be long gone. Besides, the Earth has very specific conditions that allows life to thrive on it. If it changes too much, life would cease to exist.
Or enough technology to blow each other up. >.< Humans are unique in that they manage to be brilliant and brilliantly idiotic at the same time. And no matter how brilliant we get, our goal is usually the same thing: Blow each other up, shoot each other, cut each other into little ribbons, club each other over the head, etc.
See, this is the thing I find absolutely fascinating. Despite how far we've come, it's impossible for us to destroy the Earth. We'd ruin it for a while, yeah, but in time it would return to it's natural state without us.
My friend thinks that humans are a more powerful force than nature. He could not be more wrong. No matter how developed we get, nature can always have the option to screw us over.
i had an inspiring thought,if i could make a bread with peanut butter in the dough,that wouldnt melt in a toaster,i could make pre buttered toast and also this : optimus has 7 letters,7 is a prime number,optimus is a prime
DA POWUH OF NAYTCHA IT FLOWS IN DA RIVAS AND DA STREAMS AND IT FLOWS IN YOU 'TIS I, CAPOTAIN PLANETOR! Yes. I am. Captain. Planet.
Humans are still important to the ecosystems of the world as predators/prey. We've just overgrown what we were supposed to be.
Nah i think earth would be better. No war ,no pollution,No poaching,no over harvesting.I think it would be much better.
Again, you're thinking of a scenario where we've overgrown what we were meant to be. Think back to when humans still lived in tribes. War caused no significant damage other than to ourselves We only polluted as much as everything else and we could only harvest so little.
The thing that consistently blows my mind, are just the odds of anything. Theoretically speaking, if the multiverse theory is true, there are infinite universes. But not all universes are inhabited, meaning there's a finite number of inhabited universes. Any finite number divided by infinity is essentially zero, so the fact that our universe even exists the way it does is already insane. And beyond that, there are 6.84 billion people on this earth, just right now. There have been thousands upon thousands of years of history of humans, in which, according to scientists estimates, 107 BILLION people have lived. And yet, here we all are. The odds of me knowing any of you are literally zero, and yet it happened (sorta. I don't really know anyone on this site very well, but I have myself to blame for that). The odds of me being part of my family are zero. The odds of me finding my best friends are zero. And the odds that I would find, and become a part of, a community of awesome and understanding people based upon arguably the greatest show ever are zero. And yet here we all are.
When you put it that way, yeah it is really weird. The odds of any of us being born were pretty much zero. Who knows, if one little thing played out differently, our whole lives could've been different.
