Name me a time on Earth when life wasn't dangerous.
I bet the English were living in the Age of Aquarius during the Blitz of London in 1940... My father regales me of the carefree times of the school air raid drills with 'duck and cover....." My grandmother to this day chortles about my grandfather, an Observer (aka Bombardier) aboard a B-36 with his finger on a 20 mega-tonne Hydrogen bomb. How about that Cuban Missile crisis ?......... All carefree days compared to now.
And this is just recent history... plagues of Black Death, a murderous tribe of fanatics raiding your village for human sacrifices **
The world has always been a dangerous place---
Hey, if that piece of Blue Ice falling 5000 feet from a leaking airliner's toilet holding tank (I'm in a plane right now-- that was an easy association for me)-- has your name on it- you;re toast - no nukes involved.
Go have a beer
