"How will the world end?"

All things must die in the long run, so lets have a vote.

a) Asteroid smashes the Earth in two
b) The old classic of WW3 and nuclear/chemical death etc
c) Global warming
d) Ailens invading/destroying
e) Overpopulation, end of finite reources etc

This might come under the nukes but there should have been another option of a Skynet like scenerio.

Why so?

Actually. That is a misconception. Atlas doesn't actually carry the world like many people think. He holds up the sky.


But i reckon Earth will end with a nuclear bomb. Seems the most likely.

Personally I believe the Idea that in approximately 5,000,000,000 years time when the sun dies the world will end.

Either way it will be probably with a large Bang!

I reckon E.

Something's gotta give, right?

THe person who wrote it won't be around either way, so he/she couldn't give a toss about it.

I'm glad you said "used to".

I'm sure I read somethign about one galaxy is going to hit into ours in about ten trillion billion lightyears. It is, probably, a load of crap though.

Heh. I read 2018. From The Sun.

I love it to be D, but I'll say E.
