"The End Times" Now Showing at a Theatre Near You! (not really)

I just turned the camera on, talked for a few minutes and figured I'd share my thoughts. Just me thinking out loud.

Actually there are many ways the world could in, there is just no use in trying to predict how or when it will happen because nobody knows. Man is even capable of ending ourselves, like nuclear weapons or the grey goo theory. As for a hundred years from now I think we will have mastered the are of self evolution seeing as how we are on the verge of doing such things now. There is no way of telling where humans are going but frankly I am excited as hell about it.

@TasteOfGreen - Can you master the era of self evolution? That might make an interesting video in itself. We all seem so connected these days via mobile devices and the internet that we can keep up with anything at any time and get information on demand from almost anywhere. It will be interesting to see the evolution of technology in 100 years. We still have a ways to go as far as other things go though. We still have no cure for cancer or aids, among many other issues to solved.

@damaxman - I did a video a while back about suicide and hell, if one would go to hell for taking "god's plan" into their own hands or not. Even if they wouldn't, most people don't want to die or to actually kill themselves, but they would have no issue at all if god came down and took them. They don't seem to take into account the people they may not see in heaven that they care about on Earth. I understand why people would prefer heaven over just dying also.

@clicb4

I don't think any Christian TRULY is anxious to die and go to heaven, I mean you don't see them preforming mass suicides and what not. They boast the claims merely because verbally proclaiming it gives them a mental justification for death. It is easy to understand why people would prefer to go to heaven when they die, as opposed to just dying. Those like ourselves who are curious about these claims though, prefer to understand the reality of the matter.

@clicb4 Connection due to mobile devices is what I see as like the precursor to self evolution, expanding your brain capacity through use of an artificial device. Interesting that you bring up cancer as this is one of the cures I have been reading up on. The control of angiogenesis may be the solution to cancer. We all have cancer but some tumors release hormones that stimulate angiogenesis thereby growing blood vessels from your body to feed itself. Halting this starves and kills the cancer.

@Maiyanna - Yeah, I've had that happen before a time or two. I hate when a video gets 100 views or so and no comments at all after I've taken the time to make the video. This video and the other video I uploaded today were just "turn on the camera and talk" videos, kinda like Renetto does, with no editing like some of my videos have had.

@MrUberAnarchist - Interesting concept, yes, but not something I'd actually care to experience. If anything, it would be a world like Fallout 3, in which everything is pretty much a barren wasteland of a few existing colonies of survivors. I've been on a path or two in my life that seemed like I would be on those paths forever (like working the same job that I hated for years). Eventually, opportunities come up, and you either take them, or you don't. I'm still finding my ways to be happy.

@damaxman - It also disturbs me when people say they look forward to the end times because they are waiting for god to take them. When I was a Christian, yeah, I wanted to go to heaven and all, but I wasn't fond of rushing this reality to it's end.

@cruces2317 - It didn't even register with me to include the 2012 drama. It drives me up a wall too. I view it as an absurd Y2K re-imagining.

[cruces2317]

The 2012 stuff drives me up a wall. Use your brain people!

[damaxman]

In every generation, there has been repeated claims of the end of the world for a variety of reasons. Y2K, 2012, Nostradamus, Those 3 crazy kids that dropped a letter to the Vatican etc.. This won't change, as I think humans enjoy a false sense of inevitability for whatever reasons. Similar to how we naturally tend to believe conspiracy theories.
