    Humans

    Because we the collective group don't want to recognize that there are limits to everything. Because we as a collective group do not want to take responsibility for anything.

    The biggest threat? Ha, there are so many threats, how can I pinpoint just one? Just as a broad concept, perhaps the most urgent and widespread threat is our own imperfection. Of course, there's no way we can ever reach perfection, but I believe we could certainly be closer. Imagine: if we were perfect, there would be no war, no poverty, no debt crisis, etc. But then, that raises the question, "Just what is "perfection", as it relates to human behavior?" A question for the Philosophy section, I think. Anyway, that's my answer, but the list of high threats goes on and on, so that's why it's so unspecified.

    The biggest threat are the ones that we face everyday. We destroy ourselves by consuming diets high in fat, and live sedentary lifestyles. This is especially predominant in Americans.

    Liberal progressive communists.

    Because they teach their children to depend on government instead of personal responsibility and self reliance.

    Also,they believe in a collective salvation when God says you and only you are responsible for your salvation.
