Can't really agree with this sentiment one way or the other.

I really couldn't care less if humanity is still around 100000 years from now.

Edit: unless they find a way to bring me back from the dead. Because I think I might be dead 100000 years from now.


So yeah, death and destruction and general doomsday scenarios.

Cool. Cool, cool, cool.

You know the sun will be a reliable source of energy for 100s of millions of years at least and possibly a few billion, right? Not really something to worry about, I'd say.
The way he's prattling on you'd think they were going to flick a switch on the sun in the next few weeks and turn it off. If we are still around by the time the sun runs out of gas it will be the least of our worries. The human race will be long gone to other parts of the galaxy if we are around that long. It's alright Vespin the sun ain't going to explode before you become a grandpappy. You have my word on that.

"... maybe they feel things need to change and the only way to get that change is to have humanity virtually wiped out, maybe they’re bored/unhappy and wish that to be true for everyone else, maybe it strengthens their religious beliefs. I don’t know."

Why do you think there have been so many doomsday/last day scenarios predicted over the years?

I'm saying it's one the possible explanations I came up with.

I also like the possible explanation that was mentioned in the article which says that doomsday predictions simplify life.

You certainly wouldn't be the first one to find the idea of a doomsday appealing.

I'm not trolling. Are you pulling a Grampy Bobby on me?

It is well known that doomsday scenarios are appealing to people, you are babbling about the end of humanity and all that, I'm simply wondering if you are just one of those people who finds the idea of the end of the world appealing.

You even seem to use the idea of a doomsday scenario as an excuse to "live for today".

I wasn't asking you this time. I am wondering, but I'm not asking.
