Because of the increasing probability of a WW3 happening in the immediate future, I feel like I won't get to live a relatively full lifetime. I have just made it to 30, but so far I don't feel like my life has been the quality that I wanted. I feel almost useless now. Why can't God spare the universe from the world ending in my lifetime? Why couldn't I have been born in a different time so today I would be an older man at least in his 60s? But at least I'll remember living a full life growing up in an optimum time (IMO).

I also hate the feeling of being scared of end of the world scenarios before and looking back at it being ridiculous, but no, right now it is close to coming to pass after all.

I'm terrified too. I want to live. The world shouldn't let Putin kill us all, after 2 years of every government putting everyone's life on hold to save lives from covid.

Although I'm atheist, I'm still a believer of reincarnation, and if we all die from a nuclear holocaust then I won't get a chance of perhaps being reincarnated into a neurotypical person, because there'd be no more humans after.

I wish someone would come to this thread and tell us that there will be no WW3.

What about the idea that humanity in general can be reincarnated? I am not an atheist and I don't believe reincarnation is true, I was raised Catholic/Christian and I believe there is a Heaven and a Hell. And I am questioning Heaven a little bit. Reincarnation sounds nice, but the only "flaw" I have about it is that it's not like I'd remember my previous life if I was reincarnated into a new one.

No guarantees, of course.....but I believe Russian ineptitude will probably mean there will be no WW 3.

The elites of the world are privileged and unaffected by whatever crisis they create. They are going to make us all impoverished and miserable, a dystopic nightmare. I want everything to be taken away from them. I want them to suffer the consequences of their own plans. I am tired of waiting for that.

Statistically speaking, most people gain greater happiness at around age 50. 8)

I was in a quagmire at age 50. Much less of a quagmire at age 61.
