Scenario: All humanity on earth gets destroyed. Nothing is left that is in any way human. In fact, since it could be argued that we would re-evolve from the lifeforms left, lets say that the planet just blew up. Discuss the implications of this on your own personal world view.
1)Will humanity evolve on other planets? If so, do we (now)discuss this as our future, even though we will some day no longer exist?
2) Carpe Diem? Or sackcloth and ashes? Discuss your philosophy of life.

Re: where should this go?
Im thinking Coffee House. It just does not fit precisely anywhere else, unless we had a philosophy forum.
