I was sitting in my dentist office , and read some old magazine that I usually wouldn't pick up but boredome forced it . I think it was scientific america or something like that, and they the majority of people, and tracing back through history this has been a common belief even up to this day, that most people beielf they will see aramgedon in there life time .

I wish I would. That'd mean there'd be at least a brief period of lawlessness for a rape spree.

It will be the end of the world if someone launches a nuke at the USA. But more likely, we will see a nuclear war between Israel and an Arab state.

Welll It is interesting , because in the article while there was lots of religious beliefs for the end of the world, it was all how it was felt it would end . But almost all felt it would be something "else " that would cause the end of the world, and for the 50-60 years it has been nuclear war. while going thorugh history ,it has been war, plauge, fammon, floods , etc .

And we know who'll win that one.

Israel would become a *very* large country after that war. :eek:

10 years from now when Iran is projected to have "launch" capability get back to me on that. The Iranians are more measured and patient then you may realize. They have a very diverse and educated society. Kind of like more like Pakistan then Syria. .

Out of my mind, back in a moment.
Humans are so damned egotistical.

In no way will humans be able to destroy the world. Even if we blanketed the planet with the pall of a nuclear winter, life would still exist somewhere....frozen in polar ice caps, in the bottom of the oceans....somehow life will still exist regardless of what we do.

"It's time for you to fix me something to eat, bitch." ~ The girlfriend when asked about this thread.

I guess she's just gonna go binge drinking with her girls and no food will happen.

as for the end of days... do people really think about it? All I know is, I've got camping gear, survival skills, and plenty of vacant mountains to hide in while the **** hits the fany.

People as a whole are like suicidal nincompoops that try to kill ourselves for attention, the threat is there, but i don't believe we'll ever really do it. i believe that the only real threat to our existence lies in a catostrophic world altering event, comet, drastic atmospheric change blah blah blah. That's why in order for humanity (and the resource consuming society we've made ourselves to be) are to survive, we gotta get off this planet. From one day to the next i'm torn on whether i hope we make it or get blown to hell.

Will it happen within my lifetime?

i dunno....

Everybody dies, everyone dying at the same time i guess would lend an odd comfort perhaps? Hopefully the mt. biking is killer on the other side.
