Humanity should end.

allkratosIf Brazil is out. Eliminated by the Dutchmen, maybe.

Brazil is out. Eliminated by the Dutchmen, we're all waiting.

No, that was bad luck so no.

No, you already said that "If Brazil is out. Eliminated by the Dutchmen" that you'll shove yourself off this mortal coil. Even quoted you for the record:

So, DO IT, YOU WUSS! PUT A GUN INTO YOUR MOUTH, AND EAT HOT LEAD!

The worlds going to end in 2012!!!!!

I have already did that, and you what? The gun telepathically told me that you should try first.

Replying to #45

No, you ignorant prick. The onus is on you to put the gun in your mouth and blow your head off. After all, who is the genius that made this thread proposing we should end all humanity?That's right, YOU GO FIRST!

No [u]!

Uh... good luck with that, mate.

Emo... It wont hppen

Lol, I thought that you were calling him an emo for a moment : )
I don't think that humanity is actually going to volunteer for mass extinction any time soon.

Well, please read the whole thing.
If we do not wish for our early doom, we better work together so at least we don't just solely depend on our planet.
Our planet is in the shooting gallery for various objects from outer space. There are so much more dangers than meet the eyes. It's not a matter of whether or not our Earth is the next unfortunate planet, it's a matter of when. No it's not just about those rocks from space, there are others with even more dangers like nearby supernova, Gama-ray burst, etc. Think about how many civilizations out there that have been wiped out by one of those phenomena? More strikingly, think about how many potential species out there that have met their doom before achieving a feat, a feat that let them free themselves from being bound only to their home-world. By not going far, look at the dinosaurs.

Theoretically, the answer is none ;D No civilization has been discovered yet in space. How do you know the potential species out there have met their doom before achieving a feat, are you one of them?

Or course no evidence yet but hypothetically by considering the number of galaxies, stars and star systems in the universe, it is more probably for other civilization, potentially intelligent species to exist than not to exist at all. Perhaps one of the reasons why we have not made any contact with one yet because some of them were demised by those events. We can't just be sure of everything.

Replying to #53

Thats why humanity cannot end ;D

:-XAs for the reason that the majority of people don't feel like killing themselves; hope. That and for the same reasons that we don't see mice hanging from our ceilings; necessity, *ahem* love for other people, and of course, natural instinct.That and it's pretty hard to design a spaceship to carry and sustain millions of people for any length of time, considering that if we did leave the planet in search of other civilizations we would probably be surfing the stars for a couple of thousand years before we found any other races capable of achieving our kind of intelligence.

Setting aside the rest of your ridiculous flights of science fiction fancy, it's worth noting that a supernova must happen within 100 or so light years of us if we are to be affected. The nearest star that's likely to go supernova any time soon ("soon" in space terms is not soon at all, by the way) is beyond that radius.

But you have consider scientists uncertainty as well. They themselves aren't completely sure. That is one of the reason those astrophysicists look at the sky every night. There are billion of stars in the universe. By the way, 3000 light years away is enough to have an effect on Earth.
That said, if it happens now, it will only reaches and be detectable by us 3000 years later.

Stars massive enough to go supernova tend to be pretty damn bright. Stars about to go supernova are even more noticeable. Scientists aren't so incompetent as to miss one close enough to us to kill us.It's true that a supernova must affect us to be observed by us, but obviously the subject at hand is whether it will directly harm us or not.
