Along these lines,
- god will be declared dead a million times and resurrected by feeble-mindeds
- the universe will continue to revolve/inflate/whatever and won't care about a bunch of stupid primates
- entities that cooperate will out-survive those that chose contention
- entropy will increase, altho nobody knows how that will play out
- scientists and smart people will continue to find absolutely amazing things about everything
- dump people will deny anything that conflicts with their set-in-concrete views
- youth will triumph
