Signs of the Apocalypse

[the chi]

thats it, thats my thought...we are all going to blow each other up with nuclear warfare and destroy the planet...end of story...

but a few brave souls may make it off planet in some space travel device and eventually colonize another planet in a galaxy far far away...

With the middle east conflict complicating, especially Iran, which is being somewhat backed up by Russia which is already run by a tyrant who wishes for a socialist-lite society, China getting big and pumping up it's military and India also getting big, I see new superpowers emerging on the scene which always bring about conflict.
World War 3 in my lifetime seems entirely possible which would undoubtedly involve nuclear bombs. We start hitting each others major cities with nukes and you can decrease the worlds population by half in a matter of weeks.
I would not want anything of the sort to happen. This generation seems jaded to the concept of a big, nasty wars like ww2 or ww1 where whole swaths of the population are wiped out but history has taught us that peace is almost always preceded by large scale conflict.

If we do get killed off all at once it will be the flying spaghetti monster's doing.

I definitely see WW3 happening in my lifetime. I pray it wont, but it probably will. My guess is that mankind will be 90% wiped out, and the fuckers who are still alive are going to have it really bad.

I think an alien attack would be crazy wicked, where they have guns that vaporize us. More like war of the worlds and less like Alien or predator though.

how about when they turn on this new supercolider in may? it may end up ending existance as we know it.


no matter what in most appocolyptic scenarios there will be some survivors. pretty much the only end all type of situation would be massive meteor that creates another ice age, possibly even a super volcano eruption.
