End of the World?

[Mathy Stockington]

From the moment that any living thing starts to live - it starts to die.

[Gaian]

*nod*
Perfectly right, for how scary it may seem for somebody. Scared by the truth 

[Mythryndel]

I can't resist... It seems on-topic.

Perfect Health is simply the slowest rate at which one can die. (by unknown)

[Mathy Stockington]

It is called reality Gaian. This is why some people do not take care of themsleves. They think, "Why bother, I am going to die anyway." The thing about it the road we get to travel on during that time can be a wonderful trip lasting many years. Live each day to best of all our ability and help others along the way.


"Life is lived forwards, but understood backwards" Now this makes more sense, right?

Sure, it does.
Indeed, everybody is gonna die, but you should live a good life, while you're still alive and, indeed, a life spent thinking that anyways we should die and without caring of ourselves is helpless, almost an insult to people who worked for making people in the future live better. And in our life we all should try to make other people feel better.
An empty life is helpless for us and who surround us.

What really amazes me is that I know you live half way across the world from me Gaian, and yet our thoughts on these topics are so similar. It just goes to show all of us: we are not that very different, right?

LHC experiment is making us think, somehow 
And I am glad about this.

All I have to say really.

[Mathy Stockington]

No one has mentioned that this thread just happened to be written on 9-11. This is surprising to me.

Remember life is short. It is best to forgive and forget. The person that you forgive just might be the one to make the most difference in your life.
You never know. Do not miss your chance.

Thank you all for listening to me on this terrible day of sadness.

[Shaman]

I wrote it yesterday night, not 9/11.

[Eliseth]

Think about this carefully: if there was a button you could push that will end the world... would you push it? I would.

In the next five years most of you will be dead, appreciate what time you have left.

[Raa]

Odd, I kept thinking about the end of the world yesterday and this morning... Somehow I didn't hear about this. How did I not hear about this??

Eliseth, why do you think that? Most of us are young, healthy, smart, non-smoking individuals who eat right, drive safe, and exercise daily... Right...?

I do not understand why you say this nor do I understand why you would push the button. Can you explain please Eliseth? (btw, I have thought about it)

((and Shaman it appears most of the responses you have gotten are on 9-11 and that is why I mentioned it. Thank you for a great thread.))

Woot, a doomsday thread with a hint of philosophy! I wonder how its not locked already.

I don't feel dead yet, so i guess they failed at destroying the world.

Eliseth: you are scary  ...or just attracted to big buttons.
And i don't see why i should be dead in the next 5 years. Is there yet another doomsday, or the 100th take of the day of Judgment? Or maybe you are engineering a big red button that can destroy the world? Spreading such rumors can be profitable if you own a sect or two... sadly im not charismatic enough to get one going.

EDIT: I didn't believe this experiment could cause the end of the world until i saw this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j50ZssEojtM&eurl
EDIT2: Its the first funny thing i have seen on youtube.
Im about to drop some particle physics in da club, yo!
