Stephen Hawking asked how do we get through the next 100 years, I ask how do we get through the next 50?

Answer 1

Last night I came up with an answer to life's biggest question, to life, existance and everything, pain frustration, happiness and everything. Do you want to know what it is. It's one word.

That's it. Full stop. Balance. Just think about it for a minute. Balance is the key to everything and if you can maintain the balance, having neither too much of one thing and not enough of the other, all the problems are sorted. The world, all nature needs both negative and positive to keep the balance. Even down right there in the chemicals, atoms and such are both the positive and negatives so don't think you've an argument against it. Those little things called electrons postirons neutrons and protons, up, down strange, charm, matter and anti-matter. I could go on but i don't want to get too scienctific. Do not feel that all the problems need to be figured out, don't get overly bothered by negativity, but most importantly don't do anything to cause harm. And if you can keep this in mind and not put too much importance on one thing, such as money or property, or the lack of them, colour or status or race or religion, then everything could exist quite peacefully. Take what you need and give back in equal amounts. That's the key.


If your going to eat meat that's natural, we're omnivours. But if you can't come to terms with that fact that fish choke to death when they come out of the water or cows are butchered to get you that burger then don't eat it, and for the love of pete don't use fur or leather or glue if you can't eat meat, it's effectively the same thing.
Eat a good balance of fruit veg carbohydrates and meat. Take in the fat as well just be careful about it. Don't complain your body needs it. Unless of course you have an allergy to something, then it' okay.
If you go out and party all night and drink don't go around giving everyone a headache complaining that you have a headache.
Realise that those Nikes and almost everything you buy is created in little sweat shops, so don't complain and then do nothing about it. Just read the label and don't buy it if you don't agree with it.
Style is not the be all and end all. Sorry but it's not.
Realise that the reason we have all those earthquakes is because of natural plate movement. It's just that we are taking up so much space that it effects us. Soil erosion, cutting down forests, over-use of fields, and building by the sea, are what causes the disrutions in the land.
Don't drive absolutely everywhere, use arosols and use oil if you can't bear the fact that the ozone is depleting, your causing it. And most importantly remember that the world goes in cycles. The polar icecaps are going to melt anyway and the ozone is going to deplete anyway before we go into another ice age. It's just that humanity is not helping the situation.
And on the point of cycles, whenever there is too much of one thing the earth will find a way to restore the balance and it won't care about one little species called humans.
Buddha and all that karma stuff is right.
And just so you know i do recycle and while i do eat fast food in small quantites i also cook at home. I'm not a vegetarian, i do actually eat meat, i have fished and i have actually kept and killed a chicken so i know what i'm talking about. And i am neither some old high and mighty lecturer or preacher - [ i just failed first year college (even though the science was extremely interesting)] - and i am not a eco warrior.
This is just a starter for you to think about. Go away and think about it and if you can come up with a valid scientific/ geographic/ historic etc. arguement against what i have siad i'd only be too glad to hear it.

Answer 2

Hawking is an egomaniac loser who knows nothing, ignore him, he's just angry with the world, that is why he wants it the end.

People "intelligent" and ignorant alike have been predicting doomsday for a long time now and none have been right, don't worry about it, have a cup of tea.

But if it's any morbid consolation you'll probably be dead in the next 50 years with that negative attitude.

Answer 3

Humankind is wily and cunning, although at times very, very stupid. We always manadge to wiggle our way out in the end. Although things can, and will, look grim, there's always worse things and somehow I'm sure we'll be able to survive within the next 50-100 years.

Answer 4

As things are escalating I would be asking how do we get through the next 10.

Answer 5

half as well as we get through the 100 years.

Answer 6

LOL!!, really it is ironic, we know so much, science has devoloped so much!! and we still not caring about what we have, destroying our planet, our health, our future...well hope we get consious of this and try globally to do something!!

Answer 7

I just want to know how to get through today, quite frankly.

Answer 8

I BELIEVE THE ONLY WAY WE ARE TO GET THROUGH ANYTHING, IS TO ABOLISH THE MEDIA. CBS, NBC NEWS, ABC NEWS, CNN NEWS, AAALLLLLLLL OF THEM NEED TO BE STUCK IN A HOLE, AND OUR SICK ATTRATION TO THE NEGATIVES OF LIFE PUT IN THERE WITH THEM!!!!!!!!!
