The End of The World

[yegosimo]

we all know that this is a huge topic, there are thousand of theories that explain how this planet is going to end, if it will actually have an end. i wrote the main, most-believed theories, and i want you to write what do you think about the end of the world, and which theory is correct according to your thoughts.

some of the theories listed in the poll, well explained

Well, a comet or meteor collision might cause human extinction but it will hardly destroy the planet. For planet destruction we need first to the sun to expand in to a giant red star, by then the earth will be absorved of course. A blackhole sucking out the solar system might destroy the planet as well. Now if you are talking about the End of Times that's another stroy and we could recall lot of things, infinite things, including Death Star coming and Darth Vader destroying the Earth

by popular knowledge the end of the world means the end of humanity, at least that's what i've heard.
u didn't take the poll, i was making it when you posted
i picked the natural disasters one, because since we can do nothing about it, it's just a matter of waiting for a huge disaster to come, i mean, what can we do if the ice in the poles melt and the water starts to sweep the lands ?

Well, that's easy. We can all live on boats. Yeah... flying boats and floating islands. We can create some kind of large artificial moons, lots of them, and their gravitational pull should be able to make the land float! Just for fun, we could paint them different colors. Yeah... .

I'd say global warming. It's the most likley cause at the moment.

 

[Toasty]

I put other, since I don't believe all of mankind will ever be completely obliterated. :flowers:

As the borg says, we will adapt. No natural disasters will probably stop us as you can see how well we cope with them. We build buildings that can withstand both earthquakes and hurricanes. We can build houses that floats on the sea.
It has to be something far greater than that to cause the end of humanity.

I believe the Earth has already been destroyed and this could be the billionith reincarnation of this planet - for all we know. Scientists say the universe was created by a colossal explosion ('The 'big bang theory') and that the universe is constantly expanding and growing; but eventually it will shrink and condense until all matter will collaspe on itself causing another big bang which will re-create a new universe - possibly replicating a carbon copy of our solar system and our planet but maybe with slightly different changes - and so on...

People talk of parallel universes/earths but the possibility of an infinite
recycled universe could be alot closer to the truth.

Have you ever had deja vu?

That was universe 999999999998. Have a nice day...

Yeah, something far greater like the man's ambition! Taking the planet's resources without any worries about the future generations.

But seriously i reckon the world will end when the combined egos of Bush, Blair and Howard (The Man of Steel - NOT) will inflate, covering the entire Earth thus causing global warming and creating a new Ice Age (Not the one with the cute little squirrel) until they finally explode creating another big bang... :happy:

If you look at the geological evidence they've been digging up for the last 100 years one can surmize the earth has had several cataclysms. One starting an era and ending another etc.
Our era/world will likely end in a combination of things, namely the geomagnetic pole flip (which is currently being indicated by the recent and steady decay of the earths magnetic field strength). The global warming is likely a normal cycle but when combined with the loss of the protective magnetic field likely will result in some hellish problems. Such as direct exposure to large bursts of microwave energy from space (the sun dumps out a lot of this). Meteorites are less likely (most are nickle iron and are attracted to the magnetic field).

In addition to all this everyone is bickering over things coupled with burgeoning populations. It seems we have set ourselves up for the end of the world ... along with all the other natural factors ocuring. It's just one synergistic mess, I estimate in 7 years it will be close to over. It will be a real mess in between. With all the worlds control freaks and people wanting to be safe above there own freedom.

Maybe. But then again...?

I know one thing:
George Bush, Pat Roberts and Jerry Fallbad (well) aint getting taking during the Rapture (not that I believe in that religius stuff)
Their @$$ will remain here on earth to suffer with the rest of us.

We're going to kill each other thats how its going to end

I'm sure everyone's already seen this, but it seems appropriate for this thread: http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/end.php

 

[revl8er]

I like the aliens idea, but I highly doubt that we would be defeated, so I say other. Like stated, I doubt humans would ever be completely destroyed. If you are just talking about Earth, then maybe global warming, but humans would just find another planet we could survive on somehow.

I thought that global warming is just a phase that the earth goes through, and this whole thing with the and exhaust causing global warming was something the liberals want you to think...

The world will not end, the HUMAN BEING will

Besides that I've found something that touched my heart

ok you misunderstood me. i meant that if the poles melting create a huge 10.000 feet tide (because that can be possible) who will be able to escape from it???, maybe the only survivors would be the ones who live in the Himalayas, place high enough to be "safe".
but if the tide is like coming at 1 km/h then we would be like "omfg, let's get out of here or something", but we all know that tides don't go that slow.
also, why not an earthquake? the hugest ever, one Richter never even imagined of...
everything is possible, Nature is rude you know?

We're going to kill each other thats how its going to end

Over food, water, gas or worst, religion.
