In 10 years

  • Selling high strength magnets without regulation
  • Petroleum cars

In 100 years?

  • Eating meat
  • Natural gas stoves
  • Oil/Natural gas furnaces
  • Anonymous online communities
  • Not wearing a sort of body-camera in most professions

In 1000 years?

  • Religion, mysticism, paranormal beliefs
  • An inversion of religious moralism, I think things that are thought of as evil will have to become the norm, genetic modification, cloning, etc.
  • Eating food in general

Why does religion get another 1000 years, but meat is gone in 100? 😩

Also: what's that about magnets? Why would we outlaw/regulate high powered magnets?

I'm not sure if OC would count this as meat or not, but lab grown meat is currently possible possible but not economically viable yet. Once that changes and cheap, ethical, eco friendly meat that's indistinguishable from conventional products is common, it will be much harder to justify conventional meat farming.

Baring that, plant based meat substitutes may gain a foothold, but we'll see.

As far as religion goes, that's actually a big unknown from my point of view. The "nones" have risen super fast, but a lot of churches have done a lot of aggressive things to try to slow that trend. I'm not sure if they'll eventually find something that works or if their efforts will further increase the secularization of the US. As far as the rest of the world, Europe in general makes me hopeful.
