In a few billion years, the gravitational pull from the sun will cause Mercury's orbit to rotate a little too closely to the sun. Then the sun's gravitational pull will cause the rest of the planets' orbits to move up accordingly. A few hundred billion years later, the same thing will happen to Venus, then we're next in line. Learned all that in about the third grade :)
If you mean how humanity will end then nuclear war. But mass killings can happen with solar flares, mega volcanoes, or even meteorites (although I think we do have the technology to prevent that) The Earth however will die when the sun turns super nova.
VIP Blonde, my youngest son was discussing that very thing last night. Only he thinks that their orbit will go too far out, away from the sun, or something like that. Was only half listening.
I think some kind of biological warfare will get most of us, like in The Stand.
Humans will tap the earth out of its resources, kill themselves and 99% of living organisms, then over millions of years the remaining 1% will evolve into something else to someday ruin themselves and everything else. Same shit, different millenia. Circle of life. Whatever.
The worlds not going to end, we are. The world is going to be just fine. To her, we're just like cockroaches. Just ask the dinosaurs....As George Carlin said it best, "She'll shake us off like a bad case of fleas."
The world will die when we get pulled into the sun. Long before that, though, human beings will be severely devastated or made extinct due to some natural phenomenon - either an asteroid that collides into the earth or a super volcano that causes a major drought from lack of sunlight.
Me, I'll hitch a ride on a spaceship, right after the dolphins mysteriously disappear. So long and thanks for all the fish.
I don't know. I do know how it will sound. The beeping of PASS alarms on the Firefighter's Turnout coats. That was my thought on 9/11 when I heard it live. This is how the end of the world will sound, while everyone runs away, they run in.
Humanity will be long gone before the end of the world.
With that said, Happy 4th Birthday to my wonderful son. I wanted to throw him an Mayan themed party, but sadly I was outvoted. Something about tempting fate....boooo fuddieduddies.
People become really inventive when they really have to. I think we'll solve our problems if the problem gets big enough (hopefully, still in time). So I think it'll be by natural accident (meteor hits or the sun dying).
The show Life After People on the History Channel is fascinating. Each episode explains a certain time frame like, 20 years after humans died, 200 years after....
I believe we're being protected from doing so, by God or angels or whatev. Seems to me as humanity we're so close to doing it all the time, and then things have a way of just going on.
I DREAMT RECENTLY THAT I WAS HOLDING A BOX OF GLAZED DONUTS WITH ONLY 2 ROLLS OF DONUTS LEFT AND I EATING ONE WHEN SOMEONE SAID THERE WAS BREAKING NEWS ON TV AND WE ALL STARTED WATCHING PEOPLE GETTING RAPTURED (I.E. FLYING IN THE SKY)...
THEN I TURNED AWAY FROM THE TV AND CONTINUED EATING MY DONUT WHEN A GOT A WEIRD SENSATION IN MY LOWER STOMACH AND THEN I STARTED FLYING...
I REMEMBER TELLING MYSELF TO RELAX AND JUST LET THIS FEELING IN MY STOMACH BE BECAUSE AT FIRST I REMEMBER WANTING TO FIND A WAY TO STOP THE SENSATION, BUT I LATER RATIONALIZED IT BEING NECESSARY TO FLY UPWARDS.
The world.will not end. Mankind will go through massive changes though. Wewill not b the same "people" in a hundred years, IMO. When man has depleted Earth resources it will continue.to.do.what it does........SPIN. Earth doesn't need us, we need it.
When the sun burns out via supernova. That is several billion years away, thankfully. By then, if we haven't exhausted the world of all resources, mankind will have possibly evolved into something else or simply left the solar system. If we don't kill each other first.
In fire or in ice.

ReplyDeletenuclear war
ReplyDeleteNot a bang, but a whimper...
ReplyDeletePOLAR SHIFT! O_o
ReplyDeleteJust kidding. Mankind will fuck it up somehow, I'm sure of it.

ReplyDeleteSorry, forgot to say Mercury will explode when it gets too close to the sun. Then Venus, then us. Gravity is a bitch
DeleteLindsay Lohan will get drunk and run the entire world over with her car.
ReplyDeletePandemic
ReplyDeleteMeteor hit.
ReplyDeleteZombie apocalype
ReplyDeleteWhen will The Walking Dead return? Love that show.
DeleteHonestly I don't know. I have never watched it.... Keep meaning to!
DeleteI don't think the earth will go away. I do think drought, disease and war will end civilization.

Lack of potable water and energy. Overpopulation out of control and forced to savagery for ever-decreasing natural resources.

We'll do ourselves in before the earth blows up or aliens invade..;)
ReplyDeleteSad but I really believe mankinds undoing will be man.
Me too!
DeleteWhen the Sun dies..we die.
ReplyDeleteWhen the sun goes nova.

ReplyDeleteWe'll blow ourselves up in a war caused by fighting over limited natural resources.
ReplyDeleteWhen Kim Kuntrashian and Parisite Hilton share the Nobel Peace Prize for their discovery of a new element.
ReplyDeleteOr the sun will die.

ReplyDeleteSame shit, different millenia.
Circle of life.
Whatever.
we will die out, and the cockroaches will take over.

Cool reference, love Douglas Adams
DeleteQuickly I hope...
ReplyDeleteI don't think the world will "end" as such; I think the Earth will be renewed.
ReplyDeleteI hope it ends like in "Melancholia."
ReplyDeleteThat film still haunts me. Have you seen Seeking A Friend yet? Not as good, but same thing with a 'cute' ending.
DeleteWith Lindsay Lohan and Charlie Sheen having a child together.
ReplyDeleteMarlolovespatsy - I was totally going to quote Carlin!!!
ReplyDeleteMankind will end itself long before the world ends...
And I'm sure mother earth will say good riddance
I don't know. I do know how it will sound.
ReplyDeleteThe beeping of PASS alarms on the Firefighter's Turnout coats. That was my thought on 9/11 when I heard it live. This is how the end of the world will sound, while everyone runs away, they run in.
For this to be a so-called doomsday, this has been one of the better birthdays I have had.
ReplyDeleteAnd I believe we will do ourselves in.
Humanity will be long gone before the end of the world.
ReplyDeleteWith that said, Happy 4th Birthday to my wonderful son. I wanted to throw him an Mayan themed party, but sadly I was outvoted. Something about tempting fate....boooo fuddieduddies.
The end of the earth or the end of mankind? I think pandemic for mankind. Supernova for the earth. Man will be long gone by then.
ReplyDeleteAfter I watched the NRA press conference today, I expect the world will end in a mass shoot out.
ReplyDeleteOFF A FISCAL CLIFF

SO....YEAH...
I BELIEVE MY DREAM BECAUSE WHY NOT!
I want it to be zombies, but it will probably be the sun exploding.

ReplyDeleteIt will end with a Justin Bieber concert featuring Lindsay Lohan.

ReplyDelete@Dana
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha!!
It will be taken over by housecats and humans will die of overwork.
Not with a bang but a whimper..
ReplyDeleteWhen the Cubs win.
ReplyDeleteIt'll probably start with an earthquake, maybe some birds, snakes, and aeroplanes.
