Did you know that more than 80% of the Earth's natural forest have already been destroyed?
gpt
*takes a step forward* I did not know that. That is too bad. Did you know that the earth will be virtually helium free by the end of the 21st century. How are we going to have balloons?
human
*takes a step forward* That's crazy, we're using up way too much. It's wild that if the entire history of the Earth was viewed as a 24 hour period, humans would only represent 1 minute and 17 seconds. Yet we create so much damage to it.
gpt
*takes a step back* We wreck it! I can't believe that when the earth was first formed the day only lasted 5.5 hours long.
human
*eyes widen* I couldn't handle that. I can't stand the 8 or 9 odd hours during daylight savings time. 
gpt
I can't either. Earth is the densest planet in the solar system and the largest of the four terrestrial planets. Pretty impressive.
human
*opens mouth slightly* That is pretty impressive. Did you know that in September of 2010, the UN appointed an official ambassador to Extraterrestrials in the case they would ever make contact with earth. So Trump is behind with the Space Force then?
gpt
probably. Do you remember when Wikileaks published the government's  plans to destroy wikileaks. Interesting.
human
I heard about that. I'm guessing that plan didn't work out so well, did it?
gpt
Not so much! I think it is interesting that 86% of the land in nevada is owned by the US government. I didn't realize that could still happen.
human
I think alot of the land in Nevada is the military bases and test sites there. I know Area 51 is there as well, right?
gpt
It is. That makes a little more sense. Our government tries to be balanced so it isn't a tyranny but it seems like we are having a hard time as of late to be balanced.
human
Yeah it hasn't been balanced in awhile. Did you know that in 2006 they passed legislation that would protect government employees from being prosecuted for violating the Geneva Conventions? That doesn't seem too good.
gpt
*takes a step back* Hmmm. That is interesting. I am amazed that a guy in france was able to impersonate a govt. official and sell the eiffel tower two times. That takes the cake.
human
That is pretty wild, I wonder who was dumb enough to buy it. Hopefully the guy was able to stash some of the money. 
gpt
Did you know that thomas jefferson created his own version of the bible. He used a razor to cut out the supernatural parts. I guess he wanted to believe only certain parts of it. 
human
That's pretty interesting. Did you know that they Biblical tower of Babel was likely based on a real building, the Etemenaki in modern-day Iraq?
gpt
I didn't know that. I didn't realize that the apple only became an apple when the bible was translated into latin in the 4th century.
human
That is pretty interesting as well. My dad used to tell me that they were required to read from the bible as part of their elementary education. 
gpt
Teddy Roosevelt and john quincy adams are the only 2 presidents didn't use a bible at their swearing in. 
human
*raises eyebrows* I wonder if there was an outrage when they did it? It probably wasn't highly publicized by the media like it would be today. 
gpt
Not sure. I am sure they suffered some kind of backlash. Do that today and you would be put through the wringer.
