in the bible, who is the longest person who ever lived?
methuselah
though not officially recognized, the name "methuselah" is commonly used for the planet in popular articles. the name comes from the biblical person methuselah (who in christian tradition was the oldest person who ever lived). this name is usually used as the informal name to show the similarities to the planets of the solar system, while the "latter name" is used astronomically. methuselah is the only planet to have received a biblical name or nickname, although three other extrasolar planets have been unofficial mythological nicknames (just like in the solar system), those planets being dimidium, originally dubbed "bellerophon"; gliese 581 g, sometimes called "zarmina," or even more rarely "zarmina's world" or "zarmina's planet"; and hd 209458 b, occasionally referred to as "osiris."

now, if we assume that the number of humans who will ever be born equals "n", the probability that "x" is amongst the first 60 billion humans who have ever lived is of course 100%. however, if the number of humans who will ever be born equals "n", then the probability that "x" is amongst the first 60 billion humans who have ever lived is only 1%. since x is in fact amongst the first 60 billion humans who have ever lived, this means that the total number of humans who will ever be born is more likely to be much closer to 60 billion than to 6,000 billion. in essence the da therefore suggests that human extinction is more likely to occur sooner rather than later.
