Do you have faith in mankind?
 

Today, in the 21st century, is really the first time in our history where one person could bring all of human achievement and all we know tumbling to the ground. 100 years ago, this wouldn't have been achievable by the strength of any nation. With numerous global threats, are we really going to get through all this?

u have way to much time to think about stuff

It took me about 20 seconds to think it and type it. That might be a long time in the life span of a gnat, but I think I can spare it.

I dun think so, cause 100 years ago, there are no nukes and no country can attack each other with a safe distance. Nowadays, there are terrorists determined to destroy us, nuclear countries capable of destroying each other, and biological/chemical weapons that can wipe out mankind if use correctly so yes, mankind would survive but in a highly cost within the next 8-12 years

This should be in the stupid questions thread. Mankind as a whole is ignorant and destructive. Too bad the idiots mess it up for we intelligent people, eh Sloi? oOo:

Einstein said we would use rocks on the other side of WWIII.

Mankind follows the path of all species of greater intelligence in the fact that with our great advances we will eventually destroy ourselves. It's kind of a cultural suicide. I once read a book by a philosopher from the earlier 20th century who pondered whether maybe mankind had cycles of growth and life. He proposed that mankind would grow to the point of maximum intelligence for that evolutionary stage then destroy itself. After the destruction the remnants would start all over like cavemen and start the cycle over, except that they willl have evolved slightly so that thier cycle will go a bit further than the cycle before them. This is the way he explained evolutionary change in humans. His points were brought to the table by the proof we have found of several different species of man who have all died off in time to make way for the new species of man. Wish I could remember the book's name, was a good read.

As for him having too much time on his hands, if he's anything like me then this kind of thing will just pop into the brain and take over the thinking until a reasonable answer is found. I will obsess over a problem until I have found what I consider to be the most probable explanation. I'm actually quite glad someone here is posting things like this. It's a hell of a lot better than the normal "Ohhhh! The new gforce graphics card is out!! ooooooooooh! It rules!" kind of topics we see as it will quite possibly make you think a bit about your answer.

Good question ninty9. I do have faith in mankind as a whole. I believe that their are enough good people out there to make it a better world.

Noctis you are nothing but a jerk. I't people like you that with shallow hate filled minds that make this world the mess it is today.

Badscript if you want to ban me for this flame, I understand.

Yes, if mankind was my penis, and salvation was an 8 year old child, then I do ...

Well, a new generation of softheads and pansies will take care of the "war" issue. Thank you UC Berkely.

Re: Do you have faith in mankind?
 

exactly what he said, so fucking true.

no matter what you do, when you gather people in large groups they gain a mass mentality, which unfortunatly is that of ignorance and intolerance.

Hey, don't hate me just because I happen to have an IQ in the top one percentile of the nation. I can't help that I'm smart, I just fucking hate idiots. Smart people don't fuck things up, idiots do. Usually idiots disguised as smart people. Oh, and liberals are all idealistic idiots. Thank you, come again.

shut the fuck up Capt.Cocksucker
...anyway, shouldn't you be posting pictures of poop in each thread? eek:

Actully, he said some thing to the effect of "I know not what WWIII will be fought with, but WWIV will be fought with sticks and stones."

And no, I have no faith in mankind.

Mankind = oOo:
