Human existance defines forever. There is no existance when there are no humans to experience it. As far as I'm concerned, when I die, the universe dies with me. As long as humans exist, I imagine there will be religious violence in the Middle East. God apparently promised the same chunk of land to three uncompromising peoples. Nothing will get settled unless God comes down and makes a few clarifications. Untill then, it's up to the US to play God in that region.
