    “I think a lot about meteors…the purity of them. BOOM! The end. Start again. The world made clean for the new man to rebuild.”

      Me too, but I would hope that after such a meteor, no more men or humans would emerge to once again soil and spoil the earth. There is no rebuild, men have only limited interests - war, hurt, misery, destruction.

    This would be the best thing to happen to the world - the utter cleansing of the earth through the obliteration of humans. We know it’s going to end by nuclear war anyway, how much better to have nature simply snuff us out instead of waiting for us to do it to ourselves. Which we will. A supreme fiery end is coming for human beings, one way or another.

      this comes off as an atheistic rapture lol. it is NOT inevitable, actually, though you seem to think it is. Also, nuke nor asteroid is capable of entirely destroying the human race.

        It’s like the poem “Fire and Ice.” “Some say the world will end in fire, and some say ice. From what I know of men’s desire, I hold with those who favor fire…” And from what I know of humankind’s willingness to escalate conflict, nuclear fire is the mostly likely and probable end of human beings. There will be a burnt planet left behind, and all the scars that show some insufficiently stable form of humanoid life once existed here. And that’s how earth will continue on, without us.
