But that 2012 deal does seem to be a good point of reference. I hope not, because I would love to see my son get older. But with my own mortality being in question with my kidney failure and all, as long as I am with my family when "it" happens, I'll be at peace.
Well, be at peace, cuz it ain't gonna happen...

Eventually something will though. It's happened several times before. Considering the human record is a tick on this planets clock, we don't know anything about the planetary weather we pass through that could eliminate a good number of us. Never say never.

One can never state with certainty when a great cataclysm will befall us, but when we don't totally consider the ramifications of our discoveries, and uses of them, we may bring on our own destruction. Some interpret things religiously, some scientifically, others a combination, but if people don't learn from history, they are doomed to repeat it.

I'm more concerned about us destroying ourselves in the name of bad global politics, religious fanaticism, money, and shear stupidity. Worrying about some cosmic event is plain silly.

Cosmic events happen though as that comet hitting Jupiter proved. It CAN happen. And some scientists say that ALL those craters on the moon and other celestial bodies might have happened in one huge meteor shower. Our weather on this planet just erased ours.
I'm not saying it WILL happen, but that anything CAN happen.

Right, me too. But with all these crazy scientific advancements going on, it is hard to see where it will lead.

Fine. Are you going to waste time worrying about something you have no control over whatsoever?

PN, we aren't debating that the end is near and worrying about it. Just contemplating how our species was created, with all the crazy possibilities. Even if the world is coming to an end, I don't want to know exactly when.

I've never really thought too hard about the whole "How we were created." subject, but of course anything is possible.

I kind of agree with the point of being made by a previous race, maybe they were dying out and they needed to replenish.

So you agree that we were all created as the result of gay butt sex.
