Comets are made of water ice. Water ice does not "hit" the sun. It vaporizes before it even reaches Venus.

Dont mean to harp on about this, but what is this image? Is that a crater?
And why is there so little information on CMEs and whatever is going on with the sun right now? Everybody is like "Whoa" and no real explanations have come out. Everthing is just vague.

comets are water ice. Whatever else they are made of is irrelevant. Because in any gravity-free formed item, things are usually distributed pretty evenly. IE, once the water is gone, the comet is too.

We are meaningless in the existence of the universe. The probability that the earth has "backup systems" and "defensive maneuvers" is very unlikely.
Unless you want to argue that some alien power is keeping us alive, in which case even they may not have the power to stop what's happening(or else they would have).
