Will Any Of Us Still Be Alive In The Year 2100

First... some clarification. Nostradamus has never predicted the end of the world at any stage. And for good reason. We still have not managed to decifer the Nostradamus code. All we have been able to do... was to connect the predictions he made with what has already happened. I have heard many stories on mylot in the past 2 years about the end of the world in 2012. Was not sure where it came from... until now. In the last episode of the X-Files... it is said that an ancient civilisation from South America "The Mayas" had a calendar which did stop at 2012. First question... Why would a civilisation have a calendar going 1000 years ahead of them? Do we have a calendar going into the future? NO! Our calendar is 15 months ahead at the most. Anyway... in the X-Files... it is said that the Mayas did stop their calendar at 2012 because they knew that the earth would be invaded by Aliens in 2012 and humanity wiped out. Now... if you want to believe... and how can you not believe Mulder and Scully after 9 seasons of X-Files... Maybe we are going to get invaded. For my part... I think George Bush is an alien. Didn't you see that thing protruding in the back of his neck?

Hi wolfie, As I am now 69 years old, the possibility that I will be here in this body is I think, very slim. I would not rule out the thought that some of those on myLot, my be here as we all know the average lifespan is increasing all the time and there are already thousands on earth who have passed the 100 mark. I believe that change will continue to come very fast, unless we completely destroy civilization as we know it which is a very real possibility. Not to end on such a morbid note, I wish you a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2009. Blessings.

I would be around 140 years old with walking stick and a bulky eyeglasses. Thank God I would not be here to be worried about another millenium and prophecy.

Sure, it is very possible because I have relatives approaching 90 now and they are extending life more and more. Its highly likely that many of us will still be here typing away on mylot. There are unlimited possibilities now with all the new discoveries.If you look at what will be discovered just in the next 5 to ten years and many of these discoveries will help all of us.Older ages will be more and more common and the next generation will probably see many more years due to all the preventative care and new knowledge. Its amazing what they are discovering and how much it will affect all of us. People are also using many more natural and health aware stradegies in their lives. http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/09/curing-disease-versus-curing-disease.html If we cure all diseases (all diseases, that is, except aging itself) 20% will make it to 95. So if you're part of that lucky 1 in 5, curing all disease would give you only 10 years more than you would have had in 1960. The graph assumes that we don't ever get any better at avoiding accidents or violent incident - but at least 80% of us would make it to age 250. 20% would live 1000 years or more.

I would only be a young one of 124 compared to you lol....I dont think I would like to live that long. I count myself lucky to have seen a new century in...Although you never know where you would find a mad scientist working his experiments for ever lasting life!!!!:-)

I believe that I can do it. In the year 2100, I will be 116, which is not that impossible! Some people in Yunna, China lived to 146. Haha My grandpa can ride a bike like a young adult though he is actuall 80 years old. I guess he will live to an age lager than 100. Me, on the other hand, I will surpass him! So, the answer is I will!

You never know. Human potential is to live at least 150 years if without stress and accidents. Medicine is doing much better, but not good enough. Human life is going to get shorter before it gets longer. New generation is obese and it is predicted to live much shorter. If we have major discovery in medicine for cancer, maybe we can be still around... See you in 2100 or sooner... HUGS

First of all we have tom survive the cataclysm that is coming in 2012. Charles Manson is due for parole then as well. Which thought is scarier?

Hey there Wolfie, I hope to be here with no problems in 2012, now as for 2100 forget that, I will be dust by then. When that time does come around I believe people will be saying Twenty One Hundred like when they say Nineteen Hundred and Three for example. Gee, just think people in 2100 will be calling us who were born in the 1950's, 60's and 70's really ancient. They will probably laugh that in our generation we had VCR tapes and DVD's and they probably will have a button on their watch where they can catch the latest movies to watch.

No I don't think I will be alive then I don't think I will enjoy my life at that old of age I won't kill myself or anything but I really hope I don't have to live above the age 100 the world must have changed so much then I will be missing things I loved and people dear to me wouldn't be around anymore or they will be just as old as I am and no longer able to enjoy life

Hi ya wolfie34 Hmm yes it is an interesting subject but I don't think I will still be around in the year 2100 as I too would be 129 years old and I eat way too much chocolate right now and would be lucky to see the oter side of 100!!

Hi, I have a 10 year old daughter, so I hope their children will be there at that time, remembering me. That will be enough to make me alive at the moment.

We may be gone but our descendents will be alive and enjoying life.Hopefully benefiting from the latest techologies and medicines and living even longer.Thats what I like to think anyway.I don't hold with all this end of the world stuff, and martians landing.We are having the olympics in 2012 so that is taken care off. No the world will go on might get a bit smaller with the sea levels rising and global warming but it will still be here.

I know for sure I won't be. As for the 2012, my b/f is of Maya on his mothers side and Aztec on his fahters side, decendant. We have a Mayan calendar and I asked him to point out to where the ending is and asked if he knew what it was the ending of...he said end of the common era. The man most common will no longer be the leader,other are to take over, something like that. I would have to ask him agin to describe what he meant.

Thank you so much for the honor of best response! I love your posts! Big Hug!

I doubt I'll still be alive in the year 2100 seeing as I'm only a few years younger than you Wolfie. My own kids might make it to see this, but that would make my oldest 103 years old! I can't even imagine such a thing! Though I know it isn't impossible. But if Earth will but destroyed in 2012 then I guess none of it matters, does it?

Hello wofie. I hope to live as long as the year 2100 if possible. Hehehehe. If I could live that long, then I would be another miracle to the world. Have you thought about your living that long, dear wolfie? I wish you would. Stay healthy and happy, friend.

I have thought of this myself. I have children born in 1995, 1999, and 2001. I thought there is a chance that they will be able to see in 2100. For myself I would totally love it but then I would be 124 years old. I heard the oldest person was about 115 so considering the damage I put my carcass through it is very unlikely it will make it to that point.

If you read lots of books written by psichycs, you'll see that our earth will not have humans on it beyond 2100. It has to do with our aggesive ways of taking care of each other and the aerth resources as well. Even though the medicine will conquer cancer, MS, fibromyialgia and everything else will be cured, as long as we don't care about the others, we will desapear too. Just think, how many people are starving, have no roof above their haed, how many die in wars, and we, the " advanced" countries, instead of helping, we use our resources to build missiles, to get out in the space. We are not supposed to get out from this earth till we still have problems at home...

i think may be 1 or 2 will be witnessing the 2100 years when we take average humn being age now it is almost 70 -80 years very few crossing the this milstone plus crossing 100 years even more few and i hope might be 1 or 2 will be laive that too they will be ni guiness book of records
