scrap_metal: (an idea)

There are millions of religious people who believe they will get eternal happiness in the afterlife. Yet we don't see these millions of people killing themselves to access that everlasting happiness right now. Probably because they only have belief and hope that it will happen, but no solid proof.

Without that solid proof, they will fight to protect their lives and avoid death for as long as they can.

It's similar in this case. I don't see a definite proof that destroying everything, will allow the world to be reborn. And since I'm not a man of faith, I'd rather protect those alive here and now.
