This is an off shoot of the Apocalypse Prepping Thread and since I did not want to derail that thread I started this one. Skipping all the prepping stuff what do you see as being the one thing that could destroy humanity as we know it? What would be your doomsday scenario this assumes that we will still be around after it happens.?

Pandemic is definitely possible....The Bubonic Plague wiped out a third of the population in Europe but it took five years. As far as wiping out the entire population I do not think a Pandemic would wipe us out but it would put a dent in the population. Bill gates claimed that a Pandemic was right around the corner:

That link is from Huffpo so take it for what its worth.

Pandemic seems most likely. I don't think Nukes would wipe us out.
Why not both. The nukes would be for some populations and the pandemic for others perhaps.
Bill Gates thinks an infectious disease outbreak could kill 30 million people at some point in the next decade — here’s how worried you should be

The elite wants to reduce the population of the earth on a large scale. The third world war that they want would help, but they also use vaccines, GMOS and radiations, among other means. As long as the less than 1% rule the rest of the population, they will be a threat upon us.

Nuclear war is unlikely.

Small scale nuclear exchanges, yes. Full on nuclear war, absolutely not. If by some freak chance it did happen, it's because things escalated far beyond control of the elites and they'd be running to their bunkers to live out the rest of their days, cowering in their hole. It'd be a reset of civilization and remove all power from the world... Including theirs.

A (possibly) pandemic is much more likely, as others have said. Letting people die, through other disasters, too. However, the more fantastic scenarios, like nuclear war or robot uprisings are not realistic.
