Do you see a parallel?
 

Yes I do see a parallel. I can also see how someone could believe in God just in case there is one. Does the god you believe in have a name or just a force or energy source ? I am ok with you thinking the Bible is fiction but have you ever taken the time to read it ?

I have never read the entire Bible, only the parts we had to in Sunday School.

My god is not a nameless/faceless entity, he is a small lizard that lives in my eyebrow.

Hey that is something I can believe. Lizard, lizard, lizard !

Why.. that's INCREDIBLE :)

It would be interesting to see where mankind does end up. Are we going to stay here and get a handle on our problems? Or are we going into space to thin the population here out first?

This may not be entirely on-topic, but I think a lot of the world's problems stem from overpopulation. Starvation, shortages of resources (i.e. fuel, water, food), pollution from using those resources (too many cars on the road and we are still making more), space for housing, employment, and even some problems in politics stem from there being far too many people to satisfy.

We have built so many structures on the ground that we are now forced to stack them into tall buildings in order to make room for everyone. You can take a ride in an airplane over any state you choose and see almost nothing but buildings everywhere a building can be put.

In the wild, there is a natural balance between predators and prey animals. When there are too many predators, the prey population thins out, thus causing starvation among the predators. The thinning among the predators then causes a return in the prey population which causes the predators to bounce back as well. Humans, on the other hand, are great survivors who adapt far better than a mere lion or tiger. We REFUSE to follow this natural balance. However, we will surely lose to the order of the world if we are not willing to side-step it.

Are we going to stay here and get a handle on our problems?
 

Hey there AnimeSpirit :) do you know Tuxedo Mask ? Maybe Sailor Moon ? Well any way I have done some time there with my daughter. Now it is the question that drives us. Now my thoughts on the world. There are two roads that I look at and the first would be the bell curve or exponential growth curve. When a population peaks 90% of them will die off from disease or some other major plague. In past war was a large factor at keeping man in check but now days wars are fought on a different front leaving disease. Road two is when we reach our apex or event horizon then as a Christian I believe that Christ will return NO rapture ! It will be Christ that defeats our enemies not the armed forces. It is written the time of the locust will be the time. The natural cycle of the locust is May thru September. My thoughts are with the second road and that third road of moving to another planet I can not see it.

This planet isn't even close to overpopulated.

yea.. I suppose it just depends entirely on where you live. I don't feel over populated here.. But I think of some places on this rock, I'd rather not live because of TOO MANY PEOPLE :)

This planet isn't even close to overpopulated.
 

I did not say we have reached that event horizon but with time we will or they will depends on who is alive at the time. Joe your a number crunchier when do you think we will peak ?? Maybe Mr. Hawkins has all the answers and we can build our ship of sorts and set the controls for the heart of the sun !
