I predict a global catastrophe that will thin out quite a bit our population before then.

RE: IMO

Keep in mind that as the glaciers melt the salinity of the oceans goes down.

When it reaches the tipping point the Gulf stream stops. Instant ice age for the northern hemisphere.

That happens if we are lucky

If the oceans warm enough for the methane hydrates to melt we are screwed.

The biggest extinction event in the earths history came about when that happened in our past

Aliens who bothered with earth wold be like a human trying to go out and conquer an ant hill, here would be no point, ants have nothing we could use, they have no resources we want, it would be completely pointless.

We still have gold.

E.T. (god ) has quite an investment in time, research and development in us, to let us go extinct completely.

I am sure they know their math and realise there are too many of us

You need a better understanding of gold and its properties.

Guess what is conducting the information flow in your computer or for that matter just about all of our electronics. For example.

Alright I concede that point,

However that still doesn't make earth a good source of gold, all gold we currently have on earth comes from asteroids, even if said aliens were limited in range guess what we have not that far away...

http://science.howstuffworks.com/gold8.htm

That's right over 20 billion tons of gold and similar metals, and that is only one asteroid. we have billions of the.

All gold in our system cames from the super nova explosion, From which our sun evolved. And yes most of earths gold probably came in from meteorites,

But look at how much water came in, also. Gold is still in abundance, just very hard to recover. They was quite a bit more before they started their harvest.

Europa, the moon , Mars, Dione,  
Enceladus, Mimas, Tethys, Rhea, Iapetus and Ganymede,   That is a list of just a few of the objects with water in our solar system,and most of those are made on nearly 80 percent water.

Also in another thread you said that aliens made us as slaves, why would any thing with even a tiny bit of intelligence make a sentient slave, they would be much to hard to control in fact in my opinion humans would be the worst possible slaves.

Make a race of giant worker ants or something that could be controlled by pheromones, humans are incredibly rebellious.

RE: IMO

Pie, perhaps the aliens created humans on Earth because this was the place best able to support a large population of potential slave workers? Pretty much everywhere else in the Solar System is less than ideal when it comes to supporting the large biomass necessary.

Humans could then be "Shanghai'ed" to work on mines elsewhere in the Solar System.

That still does not offer any evidence for why they made humans in particular, and it still does not provide any proof for said aliens existence.

I have nothing a against Judaism I am merely against Israel.
Also Jew isn't a race anybody who converts to Judaism can be a Jew the only reason Being a Jew is considered a race is because they don't actively seek converts.

Why? Give your own reasons... not what others are saying.... give your own reasons....

I understand that Israel will not be removed but that gives Israelis no excuse to continue expanding into Palestinian land.


And our status as "sole superpower" is being challenged again from every imaginable domestic angle. We implode, there is nothing left to collectively give a *** about about what happens to "Eretz Yisrael".

If Ron Paul becomes president (somehow?!), Israel might as well bite the dust on their little quest to culturally 'assimilate' every person along the Jordan river. He won't set the record straight completely on them, but they'll have the option, at least.
