How will humanity end?

I personally think everyone will fear a lethal meteorite coming and start thinking it's the end of the world. Will have sex without condoms HIV/AIDS and STDs will infect everyone, as well numerous murderings and crime because of the anarchy, the large losses through murder and the spread of countless STDs are rapidly lowering the population, the meteorite does not come and humanity realises it is fucked until there is not enough people to carry on the population. The end...

I think that humanity would be pretty hard to wipe away completely without total destruction of the planet, or the planet's surface.
So I'm gonna go with a horrible weather system freezing the entire planet or extreme heat.

I think some immature twat will be smoking a fatty, and drive into a tanker trunk, and for him, the world will have ended.

cancer... STDs... global warming... has anyone noticed that these are extremely boring ways for the world to end?



i say that one day, ninjas will all develop obsessive-compulsive disorder, and will not be able to stop once they have killed one person. In an effort to fight back, the dictators of the world will join their countries together into one big anti-ninja superstate, and launches a lethal war on the ninjas until evry last one is dead.

america, now threatened by this new superpower, starts to fire nukes at evry country that looks at them the wrong way. a massive nuclear strike ensues, with masses of land becoming uninhabitable. it is only chuck norris, with the help of his 3 bitches (batman, superman and spiderman) who can save the day.

however, chuck norris develops leg cramp. but it doesn't matter, because the day is saved! or so it would seem... until alien zombies land and destroy every last human before the world is hit with an anti-zombie death star!!! HAHAHAHA!

any questions?

There is a strong chance that humanity won't end. Space travel hasn't really moved on a great deal - but I'm sure, by the time the huge asteroid totals virtually everything on the planet (or when Yellowstone erupts, and does the same, but with some incredible news footage before we croak it) that we will be in a space a lot more to wether out a global 3 year winter, and return to start again. Then as time goes on - we will be friends with the Vulcans, have the odd run in with some stormtroopers, keep outwitting the borg and generally putting it around in a size.

Okay, but the thread was "how will humanity end?" That entails all of humanity, not just one dumb dude. For him, the world will end, but for everyone else, it will go on. Am I wrong?

Humanity is merely a concept of the here and now. Once we cease to be what we are now, humanity as we knew it will end, and a new, possibly brighter, likely darker, humanity will arise from the old. We don't notice it because we are picking our nose, or some such task.

:D

Think of it this way. When you are young, your brain has a massive number of cells that are connected willy-nilly all over the brain. As you age, unused connections die off, leaving only fertile, working connections. The cells of your body are constantly dying, sloughing off, and being replaced. Our very corporeal existence is constantly changing throughout these processes. Which of these stages or beings would you consider your humanity? The answer is, of course, who you are now. But who you are now is not who you were then. So what happened to that "essence" of "humanity?" Did it not die? You are who you are, not who you were, and who we are is a fleeting moment, impossible to recognize it as it is happening. So, alas, humanity is dying, but it is also being reborn, and that, my friend, is the rub.

Oh, that way madness lies.

I'm not high at the moment.

How is "changing" the same as "dying"? Part of our body (our cells) are becoming unused and so they are replaced. We are still the same person, just different. Is being different = being a new human being? Maybe it will change our direction in life, but does it actually make us a brand new person?

And, the definition of humanity is:
all human beings collectively; the human race; humankind.

Ending humanity would only occur if every human was destroyed, physically. Just because our cells die doesn't mean we die. Dying means we die. :idea:

You're such a downer, man. And you left out a definition:

1. all human beings collectively; the human race; humankind.
2. the quality or condition of being human; human nature.


And to answer your question: it depends on your definition of "person."

1. a human being, whether man, woman, or child: The table seats four persons.
2. a human being as distinguished from an animal or a thing.
3. Sociology. an individual human being, esp. with reference to his or her social relationships and behavioral patterns as conditioned by the culture.
4. Philosophy. a self-conscious or rational being.
5. the actual self or individual personality of a human being: You ought not to generalize, but to consider the person you are dealing with.
6. the body of a living human being, sometimes including the clothes being worn: He had no money on his person.
7. the body in its external aspect: an attractive person to look at.
8. a character, part, or role, as in a play or story.
9. an individual of distinction or importance.
10. a person not entitled to social recognition or respect.
