On Superheroes at the End of Time
Lucas: I wonder if sometime between now and when the Earth dies, or whatever it’s going to do, that if some of us will become superheroes.
Me: Well, I suppose that depends on your definition of superheroes.
Lucas: You know, like being able to fly or something.
Me: Well, if you look back a few hundred years, do you think the men of that time might consider us superheroes for what we can do now? We can fly, we can speak to people on the other side of the earth in a matter of seconds, and all manner of really amazing things compared to 200 hundred years ago.
Lucas: Yeah, I suppose so, huh? I’d still like to fly though.
