| > One simple argument for changing form is that the Sun will eventually scorch Earth so we do have an expiry date. uhhhh this is utterly ridiculous the sun will expire and make the Earth uninhabitable in ~1B years humans have existed in their current form for 300K years so that's about one three-millionth of that time > You might hate the guy but he's not dumb you really have to be a special kind of dumb to believe humanity will snuff it because of something that'll not happen until 3.33 MILLION times as long as humans have walked on this Earth that just makes no sense however you turn it, there is not a single thing that this has been the case for in the (much much longer) history of Earth, let alone humanity And I wasn't talking about Peter Thiel being a special kind of dumb. If he's so smart he probably also secretly laughs in the face of people who go along with this reasoning. |
