The Greatest Gamble

I desire the phrase "Human's reach, exceeds their grasp" to be but a fallacy. For if indeed it is true our doom shall be our wager. We are betting our planet, and everything on it that we will be able to develope means and technology to acquire resources off-world faster than we will be able to reproduce sexually and use up supplies.

We are also gambling that we will have world peace before we will have another world war.

We are also gambling that we will develope a means to prevent world hunger before our population exceeds the amount of food that we are capable of producing.

We are gambling that our advances in robotics will outpace the level that they replace human workers in the sense that instead of getting to a period of such mass unemployment and suffering caused by advances in robotics and computing, we will get to the point where ALL jobs will be able to be replaced by robotics and computing FIRST.

We are gambling that our advances in Scientific Discovery will outpace our Population. I wonder how many different species that come to be the dominant life forms on their respective planets get this close to procreating themselves out of existence?

In for a penny in for a pound. Blow on those dice because we only get one roll motherfuckers. All in.
