[extropy-chat] Intelligent Design: I'm not dead yet

[Al Brooks]

Yes, the odds are extremely remote billions will die however the region is so unpredictable that we can be sure thousands will die and peace is way off.

     It is not conceivable that 
"billions will die" unless major armed states like the US and Russia 
start hurling nukes regarding local squabbles. But then the real 
energy behind such a possibility is our continuing dependence on 
fossil fuel not religion per se. An energy war is one very likely 
way we may never get to Singularity. Only if we are pret! ty stupid 
will we see directly by force of arms opposing a religion (or all 
religions) as being worth possibly missing Singularity.
