I don't know why, but i don't think there will be a nucleair holocoust. In a way it's good these things are here, otherwise there probably already would have been some other big war.

I'll most likely be sitting in front of my computer screen wondering what I'll be doing in the next 1 or 2 hundred years...hehe

I chose other in the sense that I don't think any of the options will wipe out the human race in the next 1 or 2 hundred years. But I can see a possibility that all of the options could occur in a limited degree except for a "Golden Age", that I cannot see happening.

"In the year 2202, following at time known as 'The 100 year Internet Flame War' (2003-2109) and 'The 89 year Civil Enlightenment of the New Technorevolution [The Great Destruction]' (2110-2201), shall begin a new phase in human history. It shall be known as 'A New Phase In Human History' or possible 'Alternate Plan B' and shall be defined by the practice of 'democrisis' - i.e: whenever there is a crisis all humans shall run around in circles crying 'what do I do? what do I do?' before deciding to do absolutely nothing.
Major crisis' will follow long periods of inactivity which shall lead human evolution to disregard the need for a head. 'Humans' or 'Bodmans' as they shal be known, will be arms, legs and torsos wandering the earth and bumping into each other. Sometime around the year 2367 (or 2475-9384) all Bodmans will have wandered together to the edge of the earth. There they shall fall off and be devoured buy the Daemons that live between earth and Las Vegans. And that, as they say, is that" - Old Ironworks Prophesy (possibly constructed by The Lord of Alcohol in 1997, or by Sigmund Freud in the 4th Dimension)[Possibly untrue, but it's in the future...]{Also possibly a rejected Star Trek 11 movie sub plot, I'm really not sure, I can't keep track of it all these days}

Humanity will never put aside its squabbles, no matter what technology or what new religion or what new ideology rears its head. Its been done before, tried before, and it has never worked.
Read George Orwell's 1984 for example.. The communists tried to bring about a Golden Age Look where that got them.. There will always be a winner and a loser, a superior and an inferior. The only thing that matters is who, and from whose perspective you're looking at it from. 200 years from now China could very well be the next world Superpower, taking over the USA in pure economic domination alone. That would be their Golden Age. 2000 years ago Romans brought about their own Golden Age with fire and steel as the Greeks bowed out of history. 150 years ago Britain had the largest empire ever seen on Earth. Things change, but the same old players always remain.
