No.

But as long as the slightest sliver of a possibility remains, we are obligated to try.

This is pretty simple. Can humanity be saved? How?

I'll leave the definition of "saved" up to the posters, but I was thinking in either a world-wide peace and freedom way.

Change US law so that non-USians who have not lived in the country for a certain amount of years can run for President, then vote for me. I'll fix it.

I didn't think the capitalization alone was suffice to show my enthusiasm.

Dude, he wants to reduce the right to strike and crack down on worker rights, plus he likes US conservatives.

Also, you made a typo.

when you saved, what do you mean exactly? that we will survive forever with no crisis unmanageable? that we will survive the crises that face us now? that we will survive any of a multitude of hypothetical dsasters that may beset us should it happen tomorrow?

I was totally going to save humanity, but then I forgot and the deadline to file my paperwork passed. So, I guess we're all doomed now.

Please call us what we are; Americans. There is no such thing as a "USian". You come off as ignorant when you refuse to use the correct demonym.

*comes up with a plan to make Mars habitual, raise money to send humanity to Mars, build a rocket big enough to carry the supplies to Mars, launch rocket with me inside, don't come back for the rest of Humanity*

Do we need saving? I think not.

A more pressing question has just occured to me: Who will save us from these pointless USian vs. American arguments?

What if we are never saved and humanity continues living with our fatal flaws forever? What necesitates that our condition will ever improve? Crazy Nazarenes who return from the dead (again)? Rhetorical arguments in favor of a meaning to the ultimate nature of reality?

Then, I suppose we'll all die out when the universe reaches thermostatic equilibrium, meaning that eveything will be same temperature (like -270 degrees Celcius, or -440 something Farenheit for us Americans) and there will be no free energy to do anything. THAT will be boring. Talk about nihilsm. Talk about being frozen near absolute zero.

I wonder if we'll have evolved into different species by that time.
Oh, wait no, we'd all kill or genetically re-engineer back to normalcy any mutants because we humans are @$$holes like that. But of course, Posthumanists say that humanity's salvation is in genetic engineering and transcending humanity. Who knows?

2c (== 1 vote) in the bucket for human ingenuity though.

There is no argument. American is the correct demonym, and "USian" is nothing more than an ignorant and pejorative term intended to insult citizens of the United States of America.

I like the Spanish term: estadounidense.
I think it literally means "United States-ian" but it is not pejorative, and is more specific than "American".
