What are the 8 ways the world might end for those of us who don't feel like watching?

 

[janesix]

No

 

[Daemon Sophic]

Not anymore than general background noise worry.

I already knew about all this.

Probably the usual hyperbolic exaggerations that don't actually involve the world ending. Just major shifts to human status quos, which is hardly the same thing as the world ending. Though if they actually include space aliens visiting and blowing up the planet, that'd be pretty funny.

1. Virus
2. Massive solar flare, takes out all electricity x 20 years.
3. We develop a dominate life form (plant or bacteria or .....)
4. A.I.
5. Super-volcano
6. Runaway greenhouse effect.
7. Nuclear war.
8. Asteroid

No Zombie Apocalypse? I really wanted a Zombie Apocalypse.

And yet none of those involve the world actually ending, as expected. Except possibly the last one if it is an asteroid large enough to fracture the planet into pieces.

Humans and their anthropocentric hyperbole...

Wow Im surprised that none seems to worried about this. Just wondering what do you worry about then?

Nothing. To quote the late, great Alfred E. Neuman, "What? Me worry?"

 

[Spirit of Light]

No no worries. The day i die will be the day i die no matter how it happens. Not afraid of death

I'm so worried about what's happening today,
In the Middle East you know,
And I'm so worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow.
I'm so worried about the fashions today,
I don't think they're good for your feet,
And I'm so worried about the shows on TV that sometimes they want to repeat.
I'm so worried about what's happening today you know,
And I'm worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow.
I'm so worried about my hair falling out,
And the state of the world today,
And I'm so worried about being so full of doubt about everything anyway.
I'm so worried about modern technology,
I'm so worried about all things that they dump in the sea,
I'm so worried about it, worried about it, worried, worried, worried..
I'm so worried about everything that can go wrong,
I'm so worried about whether people like this song.
I'm so worried about this very next verse, it isn't the best I've got.
And I'm so worried about whether I should go on or whether I shouldn't just stop.
I'm so worried about whether I ought to have stopped,
And I'm so worried because it's the sort of thing I ought to know
And I'm so worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow.
I'm so worried about whether or not I should have stopped then,
I'm so worried that I'm driving everyone 'round the bend.
I'm so worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow.

This idiot that rides these two bikes has many multiple ways to die everyday but he is to stupid to stop riding so he doesnt concern himself with species extinction.

No no worries. The day i day will be the day i die no matter how it happens. Not afraid of death

So no family members you worry about? The state of animals around the world? Kids? Food? Health?

I thought people following buddha actually cared about something, guess I have to check up on what those actually believe in

Do you find these slightly worrying?

No there are literally over 1000 ways I could instantly die and that doesn't bother me either.

No... we all have to go at some point and since the afterlife is secured, I'm not worried.

So you don't care how you die drowning is just as good as dying from old age? About people that starve around the world?

It seems a lot of you don't really look at the bigger picture, because I bet you would worry about your child not getting any food? (At least I hope) Yet a global collapse of the environment no issue at all. A pandemic which already in the passed have kill millions of people, nothing to worry about, even though it could just as easy hit you or your kids. So you wouldn't rather have your love ones die a natural death, than starving to death or die from a virus or whatever. Nothing of that matters, that is very surprising to me, I have to say

There is a huge difference in worry about something, and have compassion for those who suffer, Your question was in the way i thought you meant if i worried about things. And i don't worry but i care for my family of course. Worrying is an attachment and i try to not attach to anything in this world

Just about everyone in this thread is in denial and they don't want to really think about this subject
