The fact that you don't see a difference in animals killing each other for FOOD and people killing an animal for a fancy rug just shows your immaturity.
There is no sense in debating with someone who's like that.

Lion's protect their territory from other lions coming into it. That is just like someone breaking into my home and me protecting them. That is NOT the same as a pride of lions going out on a "walk about" to find a lion with a spot on it's back just so they can kill it because it's different.

What the heck does this even mean?
Bricks aren't animals, the house argument is void.
Bricks don't build houses and wipe out habitats. People do.

No, we're not all Osama, but he IS a person, he does have PEOPLE followers, and he's not all that different from other people in the world. It's not like he's unique. Perhaps once you EXPERIENCE the world, you'll see that.

No to zombie possums? Awww shucks...at least we would have stood a chance! :)
Alright folks, lets focus a bit can we. If you want to have a lively debate I'm all for it. If you want to start personal attacks then take it somewhere other than the boards.

Continue the discussion.

Oh fine...ruin my humourous conclusion ;)
Hey, remember when this thread was about the end of the world in 2012 and how that was going to happen?

I think we will be overpopulated with zombie possums and they'll kill us all and then the earth will implode 😛

I thought I comforted everyone on that point with the Indiana Jones post. I guess everyone wasn't comforted. Okay, back to topic!

Possums? Dunno, I was talking with someone who wanted to create an army of zombie cats. Go figure.

The practice of rug-making stems from the need for humanity's comfort or alternatively with clothing, for humanity's warmth. It's all based on instinct, and the fur trade is dying at a significant rate anyway. It's not senseless to debate it.

Lion's protect their territory from other lions coming into it. That is just like someone breaking into my home and me protecting them. That is NOT the same as a pride of lions going out on a "walk about" to find a lion with a spot on it's back just so they can kill it because it's different.
Animals kill animals that are different all the time. A pride killing another lion on the basis of territory is the same as war, which is one of the things that you would call one of humanity's problems.

Bricks don't build houses and wipe out habitats. People do.
Do you propose we live in the clouds? You're living in a house, I presume. Are you reprehensible because of it?

No, we're not all Osama, but he IS a person, he does have PEOPLE followers, and he's not all that different from other people in the world. It's not like he's unique. Perhaps once you EXPERIENCE the world, you'll see that.
Yes, the tiny minority of Osama followers mean that the entire human race is like that. Your logic fails. Maybe if you experienced that at the moment you're not being bombed to smithereens, you'd realise that the human race isn't all religious warfare and suicide bombers. Taking the bad elements of a single person and applying it to the entire human race is a lot like taking the bad elements of a single black person that you've met and then applying it to all black person. Which you detest anyway, right, racism is a bad thing, you said?

Fine, back to topic.

Can we add a "PRIDE" category?
I change my vote to the Seven Deadly Sins are going to end the world.
People too LAZY and full of PRIDE to see that their own JEALOUSY, GLUTTONY, GREED, LUST and HATE are destroying the planet and the other creatures that live on it...including ourselves.

DoI-Zombie Possums may already exists in Australia. Didn't you read the post about Australia being out to kill people and me being SO happy you were outta there?

Zombie Possums do exist, but Australians are so nice; they have decided to send them to every-one else, you know-the share and share alike thing. We're nice like that!!
What a laugh I just had!!

I've just read this thread, even when some-one tries to bring peace, there is still some-one who wants the conflict to continue.

This thread is about the end of the world, I think the choices were natural or man made ( I'm disregarding WW3 'cos as far as I'm concerned it has happened ).
If each one here represents a nation, a man made end of the world is assured.

If it were up to me, I'd suggest the moderators stepped in and closed this thread.

It's one thing to disagree with anothers opinion and debate it. It's another thing to take what a person says, and then for your own ends have your say; which insults another.

So do the board a favour, show the prospective new members that you can have a difference of opinion, that you can accept anothers view-point. Show that you can have tolerance for anothers view.

Or am I being to hopeful, thinking that the human race has a future.

Thanks Illyrian...five whole house points for being sensible and saving me from posting another warning...if the bickering continues the thread will be closed as you suggest.

Those comments, they have anything to do with a certain person burning a school gym?
or was it mice,.......maybe mice with cigarettes, hm?

Totally. :D
World War III.

We're definitely going to blow ourselves up. H'OKAY, SO...

I don't think the world will end in a nice pretty explosion, killing all life in one fell swoop. I think we're going to torture ourselves to death with the bombing and the fallout from it. Radiation poisoning, nuclear winter...yea. The world will end, and it won't be pretty.

As a sidenote, I think it's been proven that it's only one cycle of the Mayan calender ends in 2012. Another one begins after that. Don't quote me, but I'm pretty sure that's the what.

I think you are right about the Mayan calender, it's not literally the end of the world, but the end of this particular cycle. ;)

Yeah, it's the end of the 13th one or whatever. It's not the last one or anything.

She specifically said don't quote her! Humanity is doomed.... =p
Yes, after reading the last couple of pages of posts can I change my answer to World War 3? I think it was explained unknowingly by all those arguments that humans are never going to be able to get along as a species. Even when one person is arguing about humans being good people, it's still arguing, and it's still silly and not worth the time. Instead of arguing with someone on an internet forum why don't you go do fun stuff? Even just taking a walk and admiring nature?
 
"Dlou444 agrees: DUDE! Where ya BEEN?!?!?"

Same place i've always been, everyone but me heard of it or something then? D=

Well, the clue is in the name! The Mayan Calendar is the calendar that was used by the ancient Mayans!

Oh Lou...I was going to karmafy you but I need to spread the love...and what's this about Australians being angry enough to kill....did someone steal our beer and crash our ute? 😉

So, getting this thread back on topic........

I'm not really sure what will end the world, but I don't think it will be for a long, long, long while yet. I don't think it will be for any of the reasons in the poll either.

I think maybe we will just use up all the resources we have, and the planet will eventually just wither and die, and us along with it.

Yes, I watch & read too much sci-fi. 😉

I heard the sun would run short of supplies and expand ending the world in 500,000 years, give or take a day.
Oh dear!
It isn't the Mayan Calender, it was Mayan's calender that was found, seem's he hadn't learn how to spell fourteen at that time. That's why his calender only went to thirteen, some archaeologist read that as the world would end after then, go figure!

I've got my tongue stuck in my cheek again, anyone know how to get it out?
 
Apparently some people try to work Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce, and Revelations into the 2012 thing also.

The Comet that's supposed to hit in 2012 has an actual name - NIBIRU. Wanna a see a YouTuber's idea of what Nibiru will look like when it hits earth? It's freaky.

YouTube - Planet Nibiru 2012 Doomsday Comet Collision With Earth

It gets religious towards the end. Thought I should warn you about that.

Hmm...I'll file Nibiru away in that special place I reserve for Scientology and all that other pseudo-religious nonsense...it's round, on the floor and contains a bin-liner 🙂 I wish I could watch that YouTube clip here at work though...it sounds like it could brighten up what is shaping up to be a dull old day...

I suppose now Xenu's gonna come after me now...or the Sea-org...sounds like something out of Power Rangers 😀

My money is still on the Large Hadron Collider or the mega-tsunami, resulting from the volcanic collapse of the island of La Palma, killing us all, though Yellowstone's supervolcano runs in a close third 🙂

Xenu's? did you spell that wrong? shouldn't it be Xena's? fit's those lines a treat as well.
Thanks for the warning on the end. I stopped the vid as soon as that popped up.
Wish there was the non-extended uber-deluxe dvd special edition version though.
Seemed more like an exposition on music than anything else.
Coulda done without the stock bomb footage. That was just tacky.
It almost felt like Star Trek the Slow Moving Picture.

Thanks for the link though.
