How do you think the world will end?
(By world I mean human existence on Earth. Not literal destruction of the planet necessarily)
Personally, I say something along the lines of nuclear war. It is inevitable that our technologies and luxuries will carry us to our graves.

Re: How do you think the world will end?
A natural disaster like whatever it was that ended the dinosuars (asteroid, mega volcano,) Or extremely unlikely; An alien invasion.

Re: How do you think the world will end?
I'm not certain on the means exactly, but it will obviously be our own doing. That or one of the major natural disasters that we're long overdue for.
Pick your poison, I suppose.

If a zombie apocalypse ever happens I think I will be good and ready due to my practice on Left 4 Dead.
I think the dolphins will crawl out of the sea and take back the land.

Re: How do you think the world will end?
I simply do not understand why you people are excited by the prospect of someone gnawing on your face. It is just not an appealing way to go.
Personally, I'm hoping that there is a nuclear war that wipes out some of the population and leaves the rest of us with super powers, which we will use to fight to the death in a battle of epic proportions. Probably not going to happen...but a girl can dream, right?

I like it for the rush.
Survival of the fittest comes back into play if zombies happen.
Besides, things will be chaotic and people can get away with pretty much whatever they want.
Who would not like that just a bit?

Re: How do you think the world will end?
lol ...
ive always secretely hoped that christian version of the future was true and that the revelation would befall humanity.
then we'd see all these cool things like the four horsemen of the apocaplyse
unstoppable evangelists in the middleeast who will be eaten aften 1260 days.
scorpian like locusts
multiple headed monsters
7 years of tribulation
oh and a lamb with seven eyes and horns. and horses with golden crowns mens faces, womans hair, lions teeth, iron breastplates, wings and scorpions tales
but mostly i would like to see the woman clothed in the sun, with a crown of 12 stars and the moon beneath her feat. (pursued by dragons with seven heads and 10 horns who want to eat her baby) -although the watercolor by william blake gives me some sort of idea.
and than finaly a giant sea creature will come out and fuck shit up.
oh and them some super whore on a crazy monster who will be drunk on the blood of saints will rule the world after pwning everyhintg.
THAN zombie jesus will come. cast everything into a lake of fire, rule the world for 1000, at which point everything would come back, and god whos been chillin will send everything back into the lake of fire and THEN, a new jewruselem will come down from heaven.
wow early christians sure knew how to predict the end of the world, i almost wished it happend (or at least made into a motion picture)
e: if u saw somethign about the union of consciousntetially work shy elements i posted the wrong reply.

Re: How do you think the world will end?
Humans are resilient as fuck, we are even worse then cockroaches.
Therefore I don't think that a we will disappear until the earth is totally annihilated, like no more atmosphere/planet annihilated.
I do think though that a mass extinction is possible in the next few thousand years, that would more or less reset humanity to the stone age with a population of just a few hundred thousand at most.
It would be interesting to live in the next "digital age" when humanity is coming around again, and discovering all our left-overs left and right.

I'm kinda looking forward to a zombie holocaust.
But, a nuclear holocaust followed by the genocidal take over of by Skynet would be ultimatley just as awesome.

Re: How do you think the world will end?
I think humanity / life on earth in general could be halted by:
Zombies (assumed likelihood : 3/10)
Nukes (assumed likelihood : 6/10)
Superflu (assumed likelihood : 5/10)
Jews (assumed likelihood : 9/10)
Skynet/Google goes live (assumed likelihood : 5/10)
I think the actual earth could end at:
sun expanding and engulfing the earth?
asteroid?
Humans do something really fucking stupid, as usual, and break down matter or something.

Either the planet will get too close to the sun to handle life, or the sun will run out of batteries.
Or probably nuclear war will get out of hand faster.

Re: How do you think the world will end?
Hah, I'll be sure to keep pipe bombs near me at all times :p
Anyways, there's tons of things that can happen that threaten our existence; some being within our control and some being out.
Nuclear war comes to mind, but that's a given.
If man-made global warming is real, or if we contribute to the general warming of the planet, we might just lose civilization. What would we do with 2+ Billion refugees?
Then there's the grey goo scenario, in which malfunctioning, self replicating nanomachines consume all matter on the planet.
And then there's the shit out of our control, such as the end of the Sun's main sequence stage and subsequent expansion and destruction, a nearby gamma ray burst eradicating life, others, and the eventual cold death of the Universe.
Pretty depressing :(

Re: How do you think the world will end?
There seems to be two main camps.
A.) The world ends due to some kind of nuclear disaster.
B.) Zombies.
Why should these two be mutually exclusive?
The world becomes a nuked out landscape with vast parts of land tainted by nuclear radiation. Something causes the bodies of the recently dead to arise again, hungry for the flesh of the living. Groups of humans flock to the only known places safe from the irradiated zombies.
This all seems bad, but it's only when your group is starving, no food in sight, and you begin to think rationing out the flesh of the fattest member of the group that the true horror and hopelessness finally sinks in.

Re: How do you think the world will end?
I don't think human civilization will just be 100% wiped out. What I fear is that we'll have a major disaster, a war, or some other thing that knocks us down to a few remaining people before we can spread off of Earth. Within a few generations these survivors will have forgotten all the accumulated knowledge of history, and everything that the species has ever worked for will be lost to the past, and we'll be forced to start over and in all likelihood repeat our mistakes.

Well I am more then 100% sure that man kind will be wiped out by a virus or bacteria that just kills us. I think this because man kind is becoming more and more susceptible to disease, people who shower everyday destroy there immune system and there tolerance level to disease, that is why people who shower everyday and what not get colds and other ailments more often. And eventually some super virus will just wipe us out, be afraid of super aids

Re: How do you think the world will end?
I predict a supervolcano. Yellowstone's elevations are rising, bulging, and it sits on a huge caldera of magma. I'll be out of the U.S., so I won't get wiped out immediately, but I do know that I'll die directly as a result. And all of the human race will go with me. And it will happen on December 21, 2012. R.I.P. Humanity. Our burden was heavy.
