Is it a stalwart statement to say that humans will die out just like the dinosaurs?

And just like The Sons Of Anarchy?

    I'm not even sure what stalwart means so I'd have to look it up! But I would add.. that if we do die out then it's of our own making rather than a natural disaster or disasters as was bevelled to be the case with the dinos This post was edited by Adaydreambeliever at September 11, 2018 6:08 AM MDT

    Stalwart doesn't fit the question, but I would still have to say yes.

    stalwart means loyal, reliable, and hard-working

    I would say that it is inevitable that humans will eventually die out.

    At the very least, the sun will one day burn out; when it falls to 10% of its current heat, in about 4 billion years, life on Earth will be extinguished. 

    However, global catastrophic extinction of all life other than extremophiles is likely by 2050.

    It is highly likely unless the entire world cooperates in the maximum possible reduction of CO2 and methane emissions by 2025.

    The likelihood that the world will cooperate to a sufficient degree to ensure survival is very low.

    We have one option left, to do the best we can while we still can, and to behave towards one another with love. This post was edited by inky at September 14, 2018 5:47 AM MDT
