[QUOTE="Steve-o, post: 216277"] Yeah going off topic here, but I have personal theories on a lot of things. But they're mainly theories to disprove other things. One of my theories on human nature is that deep down we like the idea that we're not in control of our destiny, and somewhere far far away there is a greater scheme of things happening. We become obsessed with things we can't wrap our heads around. By default humans are ambitous beings, so it becomes this cycle that never ends. There's evidence of this in other things as well. Things like horoscopes, man-made super heroes, tarot cards, religion, conspiracies, soothsayers, and so on. We like not having all the answers but we love the novelty of searching for them. The worst kind of conspiracies are the ones based on other conspiracies. Like this idea of the end of the world. There's so many conspiracies on how it's gonna end, that we forget to question why we ever thought it's gonna end! I believe that planet Earth will end when that day comes when the Sun stops burning or when the every changing cycle of energy eventually cuts out it. Has anybody questioned if the people who made the Mayan calenders couldn't count that high :-P? [/QUOTE]
