None of this will ever happen because this is not the way GOD intends to bring all cycles to an end. This scientists are mere mortals who Base their claims more on speculation. than founded facts.

Alien invasion

There is every chance that, somewhere in billions of galaxies, intelligent beings much more superior to ourselves do exist. So if aliens did finally arrive at planet Earth in large numbers, what can we most likely expect?

Stephen Hawking, who this year helped launch a major new effort to search for alien life in the cosmos, thinks it more likely that such creatures would come to Earth in search of resources and bent on our destruction. He said: “If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans.”

Other cosmologists go further, supposing that extraterrestrial invaders might plunder a vital natural resource, such as the water from our oceans, bring with them pests with a taste for human flesh or upset our planet or solar system causing Earth’s destruction.

I don't blame u at all........ medically we term this hyper Hollywood syndrome

when you think of these things you see no need for we humans to fight ourselves

We will always fight ourselves. Dts why nuclear weapons will wipe out populations before all these things. Human nature is naturally selfish. Just study a baby or toddler.

Maybe cos it will happen long after we are gone. At least, some 100 years from now. grin

You won't love it if it were to happen tomorrow. **winks**

But 100 years from now, your kids of younger ones kids would be alive or your grand children, that isn't such a far away time, a thousand years seems a bit encouraging tho..

Mr. RobinHez,

"The debate about climate change is finished - because it has been categorically proved NOT to exist"

"Global warming the greatest scam in history"

- John Coleman, expert meteorologist and founder of Weather Channel

Global warming was a long time scam by scientists on the excuse to acquire money for "research".

A quick Google search on "Global warming is not real" would enlighten you. I can't type all the facts here.

By the way, alien invasion...? robot ascension? LMFAO!!! grin cheesy

All these threats are, at worst, simply poor theories..and at best, distinct possibilities..but they definitely aren't certainties.

I can't bring myself to foresee any of the listed threats eventually wiping out all of human existence because... diaris God grin

MrLouisVanGaal:
In the age of reason, many have found it difficult to jump off the stone age of religion. Keep saying one day the world will experience automatic peace. Are you going to deny there's so much nuclear weapons in the world that could end everything in a day? are you going to deny there aren't tiny asteroids landing on the earth every now and then? Are you going to deny that in a universe this vast, that there is not something that could flip a solar system every now and then or that there is no possibilty of life in several other planets scattered across galaxies in our ever expanding universe? I am a christian but i won't let religion keep me from exploring or asking the hows? No wonder Africans and Africa are depicted as apes. Just train them and tell them what to do. No self determination

was talking to a girl just on monday 28th march and if you see how he was arguing using christianity, sugar coating it saying it isn't religion and that she doesn't hate science or all that but the bible has it all, why read other books that could affect you and that my arguing meant i have been affected by reading too much books, angry angry shocked all cos i said i am more ikely to see the world from a psychological and philosophical point of view rather than religious, na there argument emerge, i told her christianity is a religion whether she likes it or not, religion like culture is simply a way of life but stronger as it encourages people to believe in a cause, God and all that which isn't bad as i also believe in God but leaning to think outside the box is very good but nooo argument like say na fight... anyways the black hole sounds scary and the gamma rays, atomic bombs exist we all know and if they fall into the wrong hands could trigger something badass that kill wipe out a large chunk of the earth population, air and water system..

so am asking u is Bermuda triangle a theory,is an asteroid a theory too, or u haven't heard about black whole...if haven't read it up after all Google is ur friend, or find out from pilots what's the Bermuda triangle is or rather still try and make use of a space telescope and tell us if what u See is still theory
I'll engage you.....asking me if Bermuda Triangle is a theory is like me asking you if Lagos is a theory. Bermuda Triangle is an area where thousands of planes and ships pass thru every day. Ships and planes have mysteriously disappeared within that area over the years....mysteriously because we don't know the cause...we are baffled... and all explanations are theories. The last I heard about that is I think last year.... when the previously unknown/unseen formation of a vortex was witnessed from a plane in the area. A clear day....and suddenly a vortex formed....like a still tornado...drilling into the ocean and causing the water around it to raise more that 20 feet high. They are still chewing on that and now speculating that such may very well be the cause of many of the disappearaces.
Asteroids....cannot be theory... they are rocks. Black Holes ...theory...what do they really know about them?...one time they suck in everything....even light.....few years back...they claim they be pushing out stuff....so which is it? Get to understand what is a theory before firing darts again.

I think an asteroid impact is the most likely. Every nuclear capable country knows the consequence of detonating a nuclear bomb over a rival country. Not gonna happen

MrLouisVanGaal:


Really? Woah? I am dumbfounded. Somebody created the idea that there are other planets and solar systems? Somebody gave us a fake idea that there is global warming or that our climate is changing? Somebody created the idea that nuclear weapons exist but probably to scare us. Hiroshima and Nagasaki was fake i presume too. My brother seek knowledge. She cries from the roof top and he that his wise comes in. Don't carry bible to block things because you fear they may shake your belief.

Lol Haha! The book of Revelations was a vision..Those stuff about locusts, dragons etc. was symbolism used to illustrate the prophecy that was being portrayed. You don't actually expect me to have taken all that literally cheesy

Mind you, I'm not trying to downgrade your thread or anything; it's just that..I know a scary article on mass life-threatening situations when I see one, but this..this thread just had a cheesy tone to it, especially when I saw popular science fiction-esque points such as "alien invasion" and "robot ascension".

And I was so nonchalant about the other ones based on two reasons: 1. None of these stuff has wiped out the earth in all these years that the earth has existed and 2. My faith/religion

THEORY OF EVOLUTION
Science correlates with the BIBLE but I don't think it will be superior or faster than the bible!
1. The word is dated 6000years according to bible chronology.
2. All these cannot DESTROY the earth, in other words, they're false because it is ONLY the CREATOR who can destroy and knows how to destroy that which HE created.
3. Please help me quote some SCIENTISTS and PHYSICS who were witnesses about 252million years ago?
I'm sorry if I'm not polite enough!!!!!

Robot ascension

The Terminator may be science fiction, but robotic killing machines capable of thinking and acting on their own are not far from becoming a reality.

The United Nations recently called for a ban on killer robots - presumably because experts feared that several countries were developing them.

Inventor Elon Musk, co-founder of Paypal, said last year that artificial intelligence might be the “greatest existential threat” that humans face.

And Stephen Hawking recently said: “The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete, and would be superseded.”
It may interest you to know that this is the same reason Microsoft recalled an artificial intelligence chatbot (tay) it was supporting "hitler".

I'm aware of a majority of these threats, and the most realistically possible and imminent one at any moment - the nuclear one. This is why I'm running insane at absolute FOOLS whose only obsession is how to be married so and so time, to have such and such children, to undermine their fellow man, cheat them and get one unmerited promotion or the other, defend one tribe or the other. It's all a joke. Human beings are incredibly ignorant, even more so in Nigeria. These Islamic barbarians are ACTIVELY look to get their hands on nuclear weapons and then the world will understand what nuclear weapons are all about since their only preoccupation is reality TV and how Davido wore that dress. You know the world almost came to an end in October 1962, and almost by mistake in 1977 (or 78)? I wish I were not around on earth and observe these things happen to earthlings so that they realise I'm not that crazy afterall and I ponder what they never spare a thought about

I can see there are many dumb people on this thread whose only understanding of anything in existence is as fed to them from a book which has never been verified and has never contributed to human progress. I can't respond to all of them. This is what I described in my main post - the ignorance in Nigeria is convulsing
