It's only what we make it to be. I think we definitely need to figure out space travel as fast as possible. Given the state of affairs on earth, global warming my leave us out a planet in the 'not too distant' future, and I'd really enjoy not dying. :p
As for overpopulation. That's only an issue if we don't have enough food for the population. I think at the current time we could feed everyone on the planet, but chose not to. In the future though the population could hit a point of instability, but I'd hope we'd be planet hopping by then and spreading the human race to various regions of the universe to further our species and our knowledge of science.
There is no God, so can we please get back to science?
