Phoenix Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 You know, you're probably the only Atheist on this forum I know personally that I don't hate, despite the past. I love you too Phoenix. Esau is obviously not trying hard enough. None of you guys try hard enough anymore. I think it's about time you guys found a new religious nutjob to pick on. By the way, I looked up the nuke collectors since nobody else did: United States (......) Russia (Former Soviet Union... ;_;...) United Kingdom(Not much funny about the UK having them. They have other things that are funnier) France (What?) China (The Jin Dynasty would be proud) India Pakistan North Korea (Wow... really?) Israel (Accused, well... they do work for us, so I'm sure we gave them a few) Yeah this looks like the end game. We're f*cked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurabolt Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 LOL! I'm almost sorry to say it but you forgot Canada, Cuba (there are unconfirmed rumors some of the missiles from the Cuban Missile Crisis were ICBMs and of them, not all were accounted for by th Soviets), much of the former Soviet Union (aside from Pakistan, though most of their silos are considered Russian Territory for security reasons), Australia, South Korea (we have 'em some when North Korea confirmed they made one), Egypt and Iran. Funny thing about Iran: According to Saddam Hussein, the reason he treated his people like shit, atttacked Kuwait and said he had WOMDs (Weapons of Mass Destruction) was because he was afraid of the Iranians' Payload. Of course, the asshat waits until he's tried for war times to basically say "Yeah, sorry America. Both Gulf Wars were totally avoidable but I was too proud to admit I was scared shitless of the Iranians." Another interesting fact: Iraq is home of the Ancient Babylonian Empire (only lasted 2 generations). Iran is home of its successor, the Ancient Persian Empire (King Darius slew Neduchadnezzar's son, who succeeded him in Babylon). Back then, the fastest way to gain a lot of new territory in a hurry was to conquer the current ruling Empire. If you know your history, Alexander the Great united the Greeks under one banner to conquer the Persian Empire. After his sudden death, the Romans took over while the four provinces created after his death weakened the Greek Empire. I can't help but wonder now: If the Iranians indeed decided to repeat history and invade Iraq (and at the time the US was allied with both countries), would Greece and Italy follow? Considering that of the four countries, Iraq has Chemical Weapons and Iran has nukes, I'm glad I don't live in that part of the world!

When killing your enemy took bravery, courage, determination, and hot chicks sent as agents to manipulate the enemy faction from the inside. Nowadays it's just NukesRus all over the world. ;_; The world is most definitely not gonna end in 2012. We already know that. The world is a giant rock, it'd take something enormous to take it out. Like a Death Star, the death of the sun, a wandering black hole, or an equally large rock, thrown by a guy with a great arm. Killing off humans is a lot easier though, and even though that could happen by 2012, or even 2011, I don't think we'll ALL be dead. 99.9% tops, excluding any Nasa employees working in space at the time. Esau is obviously not trying hard enough. You wouldn't believe how hard I tried. >__> You can't win'em all. But kudos for giving it your all.

Camus The Dark Knight Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Well, the only "questionable" thing I believe in is the existence of god... That said, I don't believe this idea at all (To be honest, I never understood why Y2K would "end the world", wasn't it something that involved the computers going haywire when they hit the "2000" reset 97-98-99-00 etc... on the clock? I failed to see how that would cause any major issues.) Even if some catastrophe happens, I wouldn't fear it. You can't do shit about it, so no point in trying to do anything over it, just go out in whatever way pleases you (Partying, spending time with loved ones, playing games, destroying property, whatever the hell you enjoy).

burning_phoneix Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I do believe that the world is going to end. Fortunately, it won't occur for another 4.5 billion years. So yeah, I believe this 'OMG, the world is going to end in 2012' stuff is a load of poppycock. Technically, an meteor collision or a polar shift can end the world as well. Not just the Sun. LOL!

Phoenix Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Okay, I've got a complete(no nonsense) list of all the realistic ways we could all die by 2012. Super Nova (Nough said) Wandering black hole (traveling far faster than the average ones, as if fired from a galactic cannon) Nuclear War (The onset is unimportant, the only issue is that everyone dies) A Time Paradox (Caused by stupid teenagers jumping through time) God giving up on us (Just hits the off button and everything just goes black) Now these are just "By the year 2012" scenarios. There's at least a hundred different ways for mankind to go extinct, these are just the quicker ones that can fit into the 2012 timeline. Most others would take a little too long. Personally I'm leaning towards the nukefest since those are already on Earth. It's not like we have to worry about "what's out there" we've got plenty here to f*ck ourselves with. :| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Kommissar Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 "Not realistic" is putting it mildly. It would require a misunderstanding of how stars operate so fundamental that it would be the equivilent of going into space and finding that the Earth was, after all, flat.

Kriemhild Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 This topic needs more mention of the Big Crunch. In my opinion, I find the Big Crunch to be the most likely cause of the end of the world. But there's absolutely no way it'll reach earth by 2012.

Unless I'm misunderstanding this concept, the Big Crunch does what volcano might do right (cave in on itself once it runs out of lava, or something like that)?

It's pretty doubtful the end of the planet will take that many billions of years to occur. It's far more likely some large object will eventually collide with it and bust it into pieces.

California Mountain Snake Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Except we don't know for sure it'll take billions of years. For all we know, the Big Crunch may have already started and most of those stars and galaxies that we can observe today may have already been destroyed. Except through spectronomy we can calculate the exact relative speed of other stars and galaxies and make a pretty accurate prediction for when such an event might happen (scientists don't just pull these numbers out of their ass you know). However, the ultimate fate of the universe is largely dependent on how much dark energy is in the universe, which is noted for its role in expanding space, and for constituting about 74% of all energy in the universe. If there is not enough dark energy in the universe to facilitate the expansion of space, then there will be the eventual "big crunch" of which you speak. If there is just enough, then the universe will slow but reach equilibrium at some point, allowing the limitless existence of the universe. However, the most likley case from recent observations is that there is in fact too much dark matter in the universe, explained by the fact that not only are all the galaxies in the universe moving apart, but they're accelerating, moving apart faster than ever before. Under this approach, the universe will most likely become an increasing large and decreasingly matter-dense place, as heat and energy is dissipated and all mater approaches absolute zero in temperature. Most models nowadays predict that the universe instead of closing in on itself in some sort of fiery Apocalypse will instead expand into an empty, cold, lifeless space.

Phoenix Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 The Sun going supernova in the next 2.3 years is not realistic. Not our sun, dude. There are other stars close enough to kill us by going nova. Uh oh guys, look out, Phoenix is posting again. Another generic reply thought up after hours of frustrated brainstorming? Dude, just stop posting about me... you really suck at it. I'm not even trying to come back at you, I really mean it. You suck. Be my friend, ignore me, or pull out the big guns. But stop posting this weak crap. THE UNIVERSE: Oh yeah and I heard about all three of those possibilities: The big squeeze(my term: Universal collapse. Not preferred to be honest. The big nothing(my term): Universal Stability. Boredom. The big freeze(my term): Universal bleed out. Darkness. They all kinda suck, but I guess that's reality. Truth is though, I don't care about any of these things because I'm not going to see any of them with my own eyes anyway. I'm more worried about "today". What could kill us all "today"?

Midnight Nightmare Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) <br>I saw the trailer, looks like a movie filled with special effects and that doesn't have much of a plot or a happy ending. <img src="http://serenesforest.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/XD.gif" class="bbc_emoticon" alt="XD"> <br><br>1.
