This does not make you invincible or unkillable, and you are still vulnerable to quite a few types of physical and energy and magical attacks. This cannot protect you from the attacks of Level 6 AD&D 2.0 Deities or greater regardless of whether they are good or evil. This does not protect you from Gravity attacks such as Black Hole, Big Bang, Meteor, Aero, or Quasar and does not protect against Blue Mage abilities in general. This does not protect against non-elemental magical attacks, such as Ultima.

A sustainable modelling of earth and its resources sits at 3 billion carrying capacity. We are way over capacity. Why didn't the global governments mandate population control in the 1950-60s?
Where global population remained between 2.5 and 3 billion.
Having an over population increases the number of people in poverty, and famine and various other forms of inequality. More to the point we run into a faster rate of depletion of finite resources. When this happens a huge amount of people will die out from inability to access essential resources. Where a simple human lifestyle which could of been sustained for 100s of years is over in just 50-150years or at least changed its difficulty due to the transition of recycling materials.
What are your opinions? Do you think the world should just be a rat race where the rich suceede and the poor suffer?
