Default Re: Do you believe humanity will reach the year 3000?

no way, not as we understand it today anyway. the odds of humanity surviving any given catastrophic/essence-changing event are pretty good i guess, but the combined odds of surviving them all have got to be dire.

I'm not sure what kind of events you're thinking of. However, I suspect that if one of them happens the others become a lot less likely. For example, if a nuclear war kills 99% of the human population then the chances that a new virus will come along to wipe the rest out goes way down (assuming survivors are in isolated populations).
