The End of the Human

senorwipesalot

How do you think the human race will meet its demise?
Asteroid?
Super Virus?
Zombies?
Alien Attack?
Nuclear War?
Some biological accident whereby all women look like Rosie O Donnell killing the reproductive instinct in men leading to our extinction?
Or something completly different?

I think there is a good chance that we spread through the galaxy in the very long run. We have the science of self contained ecologies to apply to megaships. They'd be all like Wooooooooooosh! Poooooow! There own self contained worlds ferrying generation after generation though the gulf to other potentially habitable planets. Or even give up on the planets. Harvest resources and live in man made habitats. We could move about, become somewhat nomadic. I imagine humanity in space like seeds in the wind. We'll end up everywhere.
I'm a big fan of Iain M. Banks.

A lack of reproduction.

Always thought it was odd how people thought the future of humanity was dependant on spreading out into the Universe, when we can't even maintain life here.

Isn't the sperm count of men declining each year iirc? (not mine though;))

So I reckon we'll eventually fade out, due to a slowing, then we'll find it almost impossible to repopulate human presence on earth.

Adolf Hipster

Nukes will take out a high % in my opinion, the rest I dunno, suicide, murder and the lack of natural resources.

Nice documentary about it here...

Their over use of anti matter weapons will result in our extinction.

How can you be so sure? Did you get your sperm counted recently?

Synthetic sperm thanks to the wonders of biotechnology.

Sometimes I think the Humans are like the Krogans, and are becoming more like that as time goes on. We're a race that constantly builds and destorys each other as time goes on. Creating wars, causing our planet a lot of harm and have caused our race a lot of harm too. So I think it's only a matter time before we resort to what the Krogans did and unleash weapons of mass destruction on each and destory ourselves in a nuclear war. Except unlike the Krogans we proberly don't have the biology to survive and survive the conditions afterwards.

Virus. And it'll be a man-made one, too.

CrazyRabbit

We'll find a way to completed transfer our conciousness into a computer type system, along with a 'robotic' body. That will practically make us immortal and the biological human body will die out as obsolete.

Either that or there will be a massive month long internet outage and we all die from withdrawal symptoms.

We will end when everyone's conscientiousness uploaded on-to the internet. Its the big secret that mods are sworn to up-hold.

This!

Imagine the technological and medical advances we could have achieved if them greedy bankers and politicians didn't cause the Recession, we might have even had hoverboards by 2015!

We'll keep growing in population until we stagnate!

Think of the technological and medical advances that we did achieve through war and destruction! If there's a war that requires hoverboards, we may be able to realise this fantasy within the next year or so!

Who cares as long as its soon.

I dont believe it will be a singular cause. I believe it will be a combination of willful ignorance and apathy.

Consider how vested interested and certain politicians are trying to label 'global warming' a leftwing hippie crazy tale - rather than cold, hard scientific fact. And add to that the unwillingness to invest in alternative energy forms to take over from the very imminent demise of liquid fossil fuels and so on.

Modern civilization == Energy. It is the one characteristic which defines our modern lifestyle, everything we do, eat, and care about is all derived from it. And we rely on it being plentiful and above all - cheap.

Yet politicians etc think the party of oil and coal will go on forever. Alas, it will not.

The failure to address this before it is too late will be the demise of modern civilization as we know it.

The bacteria that live inside us will hit bad times, probably a property crash leading to a banking crisis. They will all go on welfare and realise that its not that bad sitting around in the large intestine doing shag all rather than killing themselves working for the elite microbials from the gut.

The microbials will get pissed cos the bacteriums wont contribute and will cut their welfare to force them to work. Bacteriums will respond by rioting throughout the gastrointestinal tract causing widespread upheaval and upset stomachs. Further economic problems will ensue, peanuts will lose all value and peoples saving disappear, fighting will erupt and spread throughout the body escalating into a civil war and resulting in a massive emigration via the anus.

Leaving humans to die a slow and painful scuttery death while the bacteriums move to Australia to work in kangaroos and live the good life.

Joey the lips

A gigoflop will use us a lubricating gel and orgasim all over us. We well all drown in a sea of spunk.

I like that highly unlikely end where an experiment at CERN goes into a chain reaction creating either another Big bang or a blackhole. It would be so instantaneous that it would all be over for the solar system and beyond in less time then the impulse that fires to make your eye blink.

And another irony is if it is a black hole all information is lost and not a trace of Earth or us will be left anywhere in the whole universe.

The end of men therefore nobody for the women to reproduce with. Seriously there are much more girls than boys being born lately:eek:

Id love a judgement day style scenario just to see Steven Hawkings face when the 4 horsemen asked him why he said it was all explainable with science.
