The Century Ship
To truly save the world
...representative animals and plants should be gathered onto a large ship by 3700A.D....
Logic: Currently our star is unstable and will by about 3700 A.D., or whatever year system will be used by then, expand into a red giant vaporizing this planet... Instabilities within our star is now perceived as flaws in our theories about how the sun works... The powerful magnetic fields of the sun will destabilize changing those of this planet causing massive earth changes on this planet, for this reason humanity will have no trouble evacuating this planet in time... Governments and other systems will be much differant or at least much different from the way they operate now... Technology and space travel will no longer be subject to budget concerns so space travel will prosper...
Means: Likely more advanced technology will be developed... or discovered from times long ago... Humanity will easily be evacuated from the planet using ships or other technologies... The ability to build a large ship that could carry a viable gene pool of every species on the planet for the purpose of depositing it on a "safe" planet orbiting a "safe" star, would be more than within our reach before the deadline of 3700 A.D.... It will take close to the thousand years of peace and stability alotted to us to build such a ship regardless of the removal of restraints like the monetary system, we need to start thinking about it now...
Emotion: The truth of evolution does not have to conflict with the reality of God's creation of man... It was through the rebellion against God that this planet's destiny was changed and we spread across it like a disease... A karmic debt can be repayed at this moment to the rightful evolutionary progress of the species on this planet... Humanity will probably exist for millions of years once we shed many of the problems that came from the turning away from God and we will always owe this debt that disintegrated in the fires of an expanding star...
The sun will only be our friend for 1700 more years, then we must go...
