Stupid Reasons the World Really Could End – Part 1 War

I must have woken up mad at humanity today because I thought of all these stupid reasons people really could end the world. The reason they are stupid is because they are easily avoided.

First and most retarded is war. People fight for the dumbest reasons. “he took my land”, “i want his land”, “he doesn't believe in god the same way I do”, “they have resources we want”, “we don't want to give them our resources”. These are petty, childish ways to act and it hurts all of us more then it helps any of us.

If we used all of the money that we used on war for science instead since the time America was formed we would be living on Mars by now. And if we just used half for science and half for human needs, no one in our country would die of hunger or curable health problem and we would still be living on the Moon. War is a drain on real progress. We postpone real progress for petty differences.

This is proof of evolution, if god made us in his image it wouldn't matter if he gave us the gift of knowledge fighting each other is an animalistic response to get what you want. If we were really made by god as is then we would not kill each other the way we do in war it would not even enter out minds. However, if we evolved from animals that are territorial in nature it perfectly explains why we kill each other today.

Regardless we are no longer animals! We should not be killing each other over these stupid territorial reasons. We should be and could be resolving our differences by talking to our fellow man and coming to conclusions together. We are not a planet of nations we are a planet of people.

It is highly likely that all advanced species would have to go through this transition from primitively killing each other to recognizing that we are all the same regardless of country. This is the most dangerous transition a civilization has to make. But if they don't make the transition they will kill each other off. As of now I think we will make it because we survived the cold war. During that time we were closer then ever to self destruction. Now I think the only think that would cause self destruction is a terrorist attack were the county that was attacked responds poorly causing nuclear war and self destruction. It is possible that only a small fraction of civilizations manage to make this transition and most end up killing themselves off. This could explain why we don't seem to find any intelligent life in the galaxy.

Something that really can end the world!

I have found something that will end the world in 2012. This event will cause stock market to crash, nations to war, and comets to hit. What event could possibly do all of this? Palin 2012.

More Ideas

I'm running out of ideas so if anyone has any that would help. You can email me or just leave a comment on this entry.

Zombies

This one I never thought as serious, but I had a few people ask me to do it. There are two different types of zombies. The first is the Necromancer Zombie; this zombie is a dead body brought back to life by some means of magic. The second is the Disease Zombie; this type is some form of disease that is spread from person to person through fluid exchange, mostly biting.

There is no reason to think the Necromancer Zombie can take over the world. First off you can’t bring the dead back to life with magic, if you believe in magic then never read this blog again. (or give me real evidence of it happening) Second even if it was possible the process is relatively slow; you need some one to go to the grave site dig up the grave and bring it to life. After the army was raised it would only be good once, that is to say; the zombies don’t regenerate, if you blow off a leg it can walk any more. Not an effective army.

The Disease Zombie, this one is now very popular in movies, is some new form if disease that causes brain problems and the need to feed on people. In addition the Disease is spread thought some form of fluid exchange, like biting, scratching, blood, etc. There is a huge problem with this and that is it requires contact from Zombie to person. That means that it will be very easy to contain, no matter how late it is caught you can round up all the infected and isolate them form the population. Next is that the zombies eat people but when people are bitten they turn into zombies. So either the zombies only take one bite from each person or they cannibalize each other. In either case this will cause natural isolation because the zombies will not be able to get transportation across long distances and then they will starve to death or eat each other. And the last flaw is the fact that the human body cannot stay alive long on a diet of just people. The zombies that are converted from people still require a human diet unless there are to die from a nutrient deficiency.

Mayan Calendar the end in 12-21-12

I wasn’t going to do this topic because the Mayan calendar is only a date with no specific prediction of a cause of the end. But with the new movie 2012 there was a segment on CNN about how people think the world is going to end on December 21 2012.

There is no reason to fear this date! There is a very logical reason that the Mayan calendar ended on December 21 2012. The Mayan civilization only lasted until about 1300 CE (common era, aka AD). During their rain they made much advancement in science and math including advance geometry, the use of zero in mathematics, and astronomy. When they viewed astronomy they noticed that every thing in the sky happens in cycles. We now know this is because of how things orbit and rotate, the earth rotates around its axis, then the earth rotates around the sun, and the sun rotates around the galaxy. With these cycles were used to give predictions and they made predictions for much longer then their emptier would last.

So why does it stop on December 21 2012? The answer is simple, when the priest were making the prediction for the cycles they decided to stop when their ‘long count’ would restart on the date 13.0.0.0.0 which turns out to be December 21 2012. (the day before is 12.19.19.17.19)

Further more the reason to stop on this day is because the Mayans (as well as other cultures) realized that on this day there is a vary rare galactic alignment. This is when the path of the sun intersects the Milky Way at a 90 degree angle. This alignment only happens once every 26,000 years.

If we assumed that the end of the world when our calendar ended then when I post this the end of the world will probably be December 31 2010, because we don’t make calendars for that far in the future. But every year we make a new calendar. So we never reach the end. This is the same idea with the Mayan calendar. You can’t expect that they would make there calendar to last forever; they had to stop at some point. The galactic alignment is as good as any.

This date in nothing to fear. The fear comes from the idea that an ancient calendar doesn’t have anymore dates on it. But all calendars end at some point they can’t go on forever the only difference between out calendar and an ancient one is that we are still here to write more days.
