Stephen Hawking Asks The Internet a Question
An anonymous reader writes "Dr. Stephen Hawking received about 15000 answers to a question he posted 2 days ago on Yahoo Answers. His question was 'How can the human race survive the next hundred years?'." I imagine you can do better than 'It Can't.' How would you answer Dr. Hawking's question?
next hundred years?
By installing Linux of course!
Agreed... but then that leads to the question: How do we know when the shit has hit the fan?
This is not the greatest
The answer is spirituality, establishment of a world where materialism will be subdued by the spiritual matters. The establishment of the society where consumerism will be frowned at. The answer is walk, not race, think more than act.
Once the world government becomes reality it will immediately transform the economic system from highly internationally competitive firmly capitalistic to more reasonable more socially oriented system.
I do not believe in karma. "Funny"=-6. Do good and forbid evil. Yours, Oft-Offtopic Flamebaiting Troll.

You spelled Africa wrong...

-1 point for referring to Stephen Hawking as 'Stevie'.
would have been to answer him as soon as possible with "First post!"
What's the shear force associated with will? I imagine it's not very high.
Where there is the necessary technical skill to move mountains, there is no need for the faith that moves mountains.
I don't know why he asked gay ol' yahoo... he should've just posted his question here. /.ers have ALL the answers...
Wait.. are you suggesting we should live a more spartan lifestyle to stave off the HEAT DEATH of the universe?
Can you be Even More Awesome?!
Depending on where and how you drop the aluminum, nickle, iron and silicon from the asteroid, you can get rid of all of the warlords at the same time.
Nothing for 6-digit uids?
May contain traces of nut.
Made from the freshest electrons.
the answer is 42, of course
How to solve the population problem:
Step into a huge movement. Don't Tread In Me.
Can we legalize hunting of SUV drivers?
:)
Hell yeah! Make 'em actually take those things offroad for once
I know!! I know!!
Man who prays and asks the LORD for help can righteously overcome ANY obstacle. (famine, disease, pollution, exctinction, overcrowding, crime, you name it)
Ask and ye shall receive.
Knock and it will be opened to you.
Faith can move mountains.
With God all things are possible.
Combine those things with OPTIMISM, and remember that Jesus Christ said ALWAYS forgive, NEVER retaliate; BLESS and PRAY for your enemy. LOVE your neighbor as yourself, LOVE your enemy, LOVE the LORD.
When you forgive, it results in YOUR being forgiven. When YOU give, YOU receive. WHEN YOU BLESS YOUR ENEMY, YOU YOURSELF ARE ALSO BLESSED!
And remember that Christ said that the love of money is the root of all evil. That means be wary of valuing money more than the welfare of your fellow man, or the planet that he lives on. Be prepared and willing to sacrifice of your own time, money and resources in order to make the world a better place.
Jesus also said keep the 10 Commandments. If we all kept the 10 Commandments we'd be in good shape, (but that's not enough.) Don't worship false gods, don't commit idolatry, work 6 days and keep the sabbath day holy (7th day = _saturday!_ Look, JESUS WAS A JEW. Jews keep the saturday sabbath! No excuses.), don't take the LORD's name in vain, don't kill or steal or commit adultery, don't bear false witniss, don't covet your neighbor's wife or possessions or servants, honor your parents.
AND don't have sex outside of marriage. That would keep std's in check and reduce the expansion of things like hiv.
Don't use witchcraft or sorcery, don't use omens or divination.
Learn to recognize when you're being tempted to sin, and pray for the strength to resist!
The most important virtue is love.
I've seen a heavenly sign. I saw a double rainbow, 360 degrees, 2 concentric rainbows ALL THE WAY AROUND THE SUN in San Francisco at high noon when there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Others witnissed the very same event. That was around 2001.
You want man to survive? Seek and ye shall find. Seek the LORD. Have FAITH!!!
God Bless You, Stephen Hawking!

I just wanted to put my two cents in and say, that we need to kill all the Sales and Marketing people on the planet in order to survive.
