I am convinced that the human race is fucked...

Australia shipping alert over massive iceberg - Yahoo! News

I mean, I know yahoo isn't a good place to get your information... but I remember reading that there's been more and more ice burgs drifting away from the antarctic...

Seriously, if the economy doesn't kill us, global warming will!

If this yahoo article expresses the truth, then at this rate the oceans will be flooding in the next decade...

Isn't it something like only 5 feet would wipe out 80+ miles of coast line and all of florida?

that would be catastrophic, we'd lose so many people/have so many people on the main land.

we would be fucked, but I'm convinced we are fucked either way.

oil is our scape goat, but it will also be the downfall of the human race... whether we run out of it first or destroy the atmosphere with it.

The night comes to us all.

If our existence is so out of balance, the otherside has to crash down on us.

Welcome it, embrace it, and love it.

We would then be defective as a species.

It would be the greatest honor to be murdered by nature.

Let the superior beings reign, cuz I don't know if I could ever live this over again to know all I caused was pain.

It is obvious to anyone familiar with our history that our collective ego has grown out of control as a result of our materialistic ways, but this will soon be perturbed by the collecting of our karmic debt as foreseen by our religions as the "Eschaton". In the coming years, the stress upon the Earth is going to become so great that the collective unconscious of mmankind will be forced to intervene into history to correct our transgressions and the way in which we interpret this intervention will determine our mortal result. Humanity is coming to a crossroads, a choice between love and fear, acceptance or denial, life or death. How we choose to respond to the coming stresses will determine our future and without a moral compass to guide us, we are merely lost in a world of darkness, seemingly without a choice. The only way we can be prepared for this type of dissolution is with love. Love is acceptance of the inevitable. This is what Christ and mystics of all religions were attempting to teach us. God may choose to take us at any time and to be prepared is to love, because love transcends everything, including impending demise, as Christ attempted to show us with his death. Dissolution is to be realized as a mere mechanism for love, without stress to humble us, we would not have the capability of realizing the utter uselessness of our temporal idolatry. This is what we are currently experiencing with the collapse of our world economy. We are parting ways with our temporality in preparation for advancing into timeless eternity. As this is occurring we are beginning to learn the often painful lesson that our materialism means nothing in the face of impending demise.... all we have left is the possibility of love or acceptance.

We're all going to die anyway. At least this way, we can all do it together.

Like that 1 scene in 'Sudden Impact' where Jodie Foster & her dad stand at the Atlantic Ocean coastline & let that 600 ft wave just annihilate them.
That's what I'd do with my wife & son...but I'd be on a chartered jet to New Zealand!! [J/K ]

is it just coincidence that all radical groups from fundamentalist islam/christianity to neonazis agree?
