Or is it false?

Mars, the moon doesn't have enough gravity to keep any oxygen, let-alone any other gas.

Yes, but you would need to add some more greenhouse gases or you may freeze, other than that, Mars is the best by far.

I would be living on Mars right now if it were possible.

Most of the human race is too ignorant and primitive to make it to other planets by the time it exhausts it's resources, which is why I chose false.  But If I had to pick one, I'd say Mars

You know, we could make an effort to actually keep THIS planet clean so we don't have to move… ::)

But if we had to move, I'd say Mars.

CLEANING isn't the problem. It would:

1. be fun to be masters of different planets

2. we should become an interstellaar species IMNSHO (in my not-so humble opinion)

3. if we Earthlings want to live past the exploding (or imploding for that matter) sun, than we must become an interstellar species or die.

Or we could make planetary awsome-shields & sunglasses. Then decent central-heating afterwards.

Besides, barely any species live past 100,000,000 years, & most don't even live past 1,000,000!

Same here

That 100000000 years thing was a joke, right?

If the sun imploded, it wouldn't matter if we had "planetary awesome shields and sunglasses", we would be sucked into the sun (or maybe by that time, black hole).

Terraforming mars would be the only way to do it, though if there are infact living things on mars ,wether they are microbe or mammel, they shouldn't be killed for stupid human greed.

No one said anything about killing the creatures on Mars.
Terraforming is basically planting a bunch of flowers that make oxygen on a planet that doesn't have a whole lot.

…and that would turn the carbondioxide that they breathe mainly into oxygen, also they would probably die of Earthling disease if they were multicellular

That is, if there are martians and that they breathe CO2 at all.

The moon might be okay for some simple colonies and such, but after a while there might be even more prejudice than today. "Don't talk to THEM sweetie, they're from the moon."

They would need to make a highly expensive dome around the oxygenless moon that would protect from radiation, hold in air, and be strong enough to withstand meteors.

If there are martiens, than they would almost indeffinatly breath CO2, due to that is the most ubundent gasceous element on mars.
