IDK, that's the sort of apocalypse that people have been predicting for thousands of years.....but has failed...year after year, day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute.....to come to pass. Here we are.
(until we aren't, I suppose, of course.)
I don;t think that it will be men which cause the extinction of men any more than dinosaurs where the cause of the extinction of dinosaurs. It's an awfully anthropocentric notion. There's plenty else out there looking to gut us at any given moment, we are all safer with each other, objectively, rather than without each other...and that takes into account war and murder and all sorts of nasty shit. That's who we are. I'm not a fortune teller, though, so...leave that to those interested.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
