Extrapolation

[Mehreen]

Extrapolating from billions of years of evolution, I wonder and ponder on what will be this race like billions of years later. Will we see an altruistic, kind, calm race evolving or a more aggressive race? What are your thoughts?

Just as aggressive. Human nature.

Hardwired?

Likely extinct.

Or the rapture :/

Pretty grim pictures. Surely we have progressed as a race since the Neanderthal age.

We'll destroy half of the universe and populate the other half. Aggressive will engage in virtual boxing, calm will play chess, all happy will serve and wait for monthly allowance from one super-rich dude, known as god, king and father, names will be superseded by ip addresses - the paradise on earth and other planets

I think we'll have some sort of a robot-like existence. Part human, part robot until one day we fully become robotic with rational artificial intelligence to govern us.

Earth is only about 4 billion years old. The sun will begin to turn into a red giant in approximately 5 billion years. If we're still here, we won't be for long once the expanding sun strips off our atmosphere and starts to burn the planet...

Yeah most likely if the event of that happening. The grand deception and betrayer the sun, giver of life, also taketh it away.
