Anyone who watches the History Channel regularly knows that Armageddon is inevitable. It is the “how” and the “when” that remains a mystery. Back in the day it was a simple catastrophic natural disaster-a comet or a volcano that would wipe everything out. However, as intelligent beings we have “evolved” to a point where we are capable of engineering our own demise. Now we have natural disasters AND the consequences of our technological progress to worry about-which begs the questions: will it be technology or nature that dooms mankind? And how will we meet that end? Oh, and feel free to come up with your own interesting scenario.
