Well I have to say... Either way it goes, with or without technology, it does not matter. It doesn't really matter, so I say, fuck it. Most likely we'll get put in our place with an enemy much like ourselves (In the planetary colonization case.) and there will be a balance once again.
But, Monkey, that's what wars are for. With our increasing amount of weapons technology, more casualties are to be expected. It's unavoidable. Nature fixes itself.

It really doesn't work out that way, though. Population growth in the majority of the industrialized world today is negative, because having children is a large expense rather than your retirement plan like in an agrarian society. You also don't have to churn out a bunch in the hopes a few will survive to adulthood. Many educated people also wait until they're in their 30's or so to have kids. It's almost completely the people in the developing world who are ratcheting up the world population. The ones who don't have access to all the high-tech medicine (and birth control).InvisibleMonkey wrote:What I mena is that now, the average lifespan is maybe 70 somthing or so. But if you lived without all the high tech equipment that basically does everything for you, the lifespan would be lower, for a while thus lowering the human population to a more manageable level. And that if the lifespan was around 50, which is when everything starts to wear down, then people would start to mture much sooner in life, so it would basically be the same as it is now, just happening sooner. That's how I see it anyway

I don't think ww3 will ever happen, it's just another wet-dream of hippies whining about more effective weapons. So ww3 would be a bloodbath, while any other war isn't? I think wars should become more humane with more advanced technology, better ways to protect yourself from the enviroment, quicker kills so you're not bleeding to death from a sword-wound etc.
And it'd be hard to get into another war. Unless China suddenly launched nuclear missiles into all the capitals of the major countries, the UN want to just talk all the time. If there was a ww3 it would be fought between politicians for a first few months. I don't think any country has the balls to use a nuke.
I also don't think we'd be 'balanced out' by aliens. If they're aliens out there, would we even be able to see them? Would we be in any danger if it could even move? I think we are more likely to just survive for the next few million years, probably branching out into space. By the time our sun explodes, earth probably would have been moved from it's current position.
