IIRC, the raping of the Easter island natural resources were religiously motivated so there is some irony there - no?

Someday, life on earth will end. There's no question about that.

Maybe it will be the sun that does us in. Maybe our magnetic field will come to an end. Or maybe we'll kill ourselves.

But it's not a question of if, only a question of when. Earths days are numbered, as it relates to humanity. We just don't know what that number is.

Yea, but the easter island story ended more or less happily. Today there are plenty of people still living on the island and it's a tourist attraction to boot. The global story will likely end the same way.

Oh come on now... the Pyramids, the Collesium and the Parthenon could also be described as monuments to wealth, power and greed but they are still cool to go see. The same with the Moai on Easter Island.

All mankind can do is ruin the world for himself. Life has been pretty much wiped off the earth before more than once Extinction event - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia but it always comes back, given enough time.

So, even if no humans make it, *someone* (evolved from here or not) will eventually run across the the crumbling remains of our world and wonder about us.... and most likely sell tickets so others can wonder too.
