People die everyday?!?!?

Non-Halloween related stuff. Same rules: family oriented, no flaming, be nice. ;-)

People die everyday?!?!?

Post by iHaunt » Thu Oct 27, 2011 11:44 am

My grandpa asked me the good questions, just like this.... "Why do people die everday? Why is that?" Well, honestly, I don't know how to say to him.... He told me he has seen so many, many people die for a long, long time! Same as me I've seen some people died every day and night myself! Not good! :(

What is your opinion?

It just kinda happens. We all die at random, there's no specific time set aside for it. You could ask "why do we eat every day?" too and it'd be just as rhetorical. It's just how life goes.

People are being born every minute, too.

Good point :D

The people who keep track of such things estimate that this coming Monday, somewhere on our little planet, the 7 billionth person will be born.

I think everyone should dress up and eat candy in celebration.

As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,

Yeah the 7 billionth person is interesting. Big numbers for the human population now! Check out this BBC clock of people being born as we speak!

People die though iHaunt, that's just life unfortunately.

The 7 billionth person born on Halloween! This is special! Possibly the Antichrist? :lol:

Happy 7 billion world! Now we need a good plague to get things back under control. A zombie apocalypse would be perfect right now.

Not really, it's an estimate and each country is supposed to single out a newborn to be an honorary 7th Billion Baby for their country.

Interesting video from NPR that explains how the world population went from 1 to 7 billion in the last 200 years...

Sorry, it is from NPR it is not either interesting or worthwhile.

So information is not valid if it comes from a source you don't like? Sort of limiting yourself aren't you?
