highdesert50 Posted December 10, 2014 #2 Share Posted December 10, 2014 A high probability for collision with a large object could be a formula for cementing humanity into a common need for survival instead of the idiotic fighting over arbitrary boundaries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperdyer Posted December 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I agree, for the most part, but you'd still have the looters and other people who think they can survive the strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, wait, never mind, what was I thinking.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll never happen. We're too tribal and competitive to ever become a unified species. If we ever reach the point of colonizing other planets, I can see individual countries staking claim to entire worlds, but not much more than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
