seeing as my last thread similar to this got so many positive responses, i have decided to make it a suggestion as well as a theory.
remember minecraft is a game in which you can make blocks float in mid air, science is irrelevant here
here is the storyline that i would suggest to notch
In the post apocalyptic future some kind of virus has spread out that takes control of dead humans, turning them into zombies. Our character has seen this and went into hiding, then later came back long after the world has crumbled. Throughout this post I will explain my theory in detail, from the virus to mob spawners and pigmen.
THE VIRUS: The virus takes about 3 stages:
STAGE 1: ZOMBIE. The zombie stage is quite simple, it takes control of the brain... mostly; at this stage the virus is quite primitive, all it can do is kill more victims and try to take control of them. The body has not yet fully eroded, but it is on its way (note, at this stage the virus is not immune to light).
STAGE 2: SKELITON. At this point the virus has taken complete control and has become mildly advanced in its knowledge, learning how to make weapons and use them in order to kill and contaminate.
STAGE 3: CREEPER (OR CONTAMINANT). By now the virus has become so advanced in thinking that it has discovered how to internally combust. The creeper explodes to kill us and then takes over our bodies before restarting the decay process. (note, by the time the creeper has reached this stage it has become extremely decayed, only held together by the virus that controls it, also the virus has become immune to light.)
PIGMEN AND OTHER EVOULVED MOBS: Now about pigmen and spiders, when I say that minecraft takes place in the future I mean it, pigmen are of course evolved pigs... as are spiders. Spiders are evolved if only a little, and as a result are bigger. The reason they are hostile at night is of course because of the other mobs, seeing as spiders don't want to be consumed by the virus they have made a deal with it, they kill humans and the virus leaves them alone, as for at day they think that the virus is dead due to the sun so they leave you alone.
THE NETHER: the portal is in fact a portal to the far future, at this stage the virus has discovered how to contaminate pigmen, of course the pigmen have... kind of found a cure, unfortunately it did not stop the virus from eroding them, but it still gave their brains a reboot, and as a result they have regained control over their bodies. Ghasts are a stage advanced to the ones I mentioned earlier. The ghasts are virus that has advanced extremely far, and is many stages ahead of the creeper.
MOBSPAWNERS: the mob spawner is a portal to a place between now and the nether at this time the virus seems to have gained complete control over spiders.
HUMANS: we can see in the source code that humans will be added, and of course, this would explain why all of these virus controlled creatures have portals, they would not just be trying to get pigmen. There are more survivors.
SLIMES: ok, many people have bugged me about the slimes despite their removal, But the source code is still there so I'll tell you what i think they are anyway. The slimes are a non-evolved yet highly decayed stage of the virus, so they are basically stupid creepers who cant think straight and as a result don't know how to form a shape or explode (note, due to the fact they could not form into anything, they have no hands and can't make wepond or tools).
It doesn't make a lot of sense. First of, viruses are completely incapable of anything like a thought. Second, how could a virus control a skeleton? Dry bones are baisically rocks, nothing a virus could do to control a skeleton. Third, since we know viruses are incapable of thought, the virus's alliance with spiders is already shot down, but why would giant spiders be capable of advanced enough thought to even know what an aliance is? Fourth, how is this even a suggestion? It doesn't improve gameplay, it doesn't make the game more fun, it doesn't even require a change in the game. It seems to me you just posted a bad fan-fic instead of a suggestion.

minecraft is a game in which you can punch a tree in half and make it float, SCIENCE IS IRRELIVANT HERE
always remember this, as out there as my theories and suggestions get, science, does not excist in minecraft
Actually the creeper story isn't correct, well with some of our opinions.
Some believe that the creeper was a failed attempt at the pig, once a creeper died they were sent to The Nether to be destroyed by the devils (Ghasts) of The Nether and then transformed into the lost souls of the Pigmen.
The virus with the skeleton and zombie make sense, but it doesn't connect with the creeper.
The portal:
Isnt a path to the future, its a path to another dimension. The Nether is a dimension under the bedrock, if you go into youtube and search 'Minecraft the nether ceiling is bed rock' Or something close to this title, you well find a video of someone traveling to the top of the nether, finding bedrock. So the Nether, is infact, below the Minecraft earth.

well if you check minepedia it says this in the trivia section of the creeper mob page:
The creeper design is based on a failed attempt to make a pig model, hence the four legs.
P.S there is an actuall pigman 2. On minepedias pigman mob page it says this:
Alongside Zombie Pigmen, Notch confirmed adding living pigmen. These would not appear in The Nether, and would possibly be a variation of the mob villages. A living pigman texture can be found in the .jar file

Living Pigmen doesn't make sense, they spawn in the nether making them a dead soul.
Maybe if Notch confirms The Aether, Living Pigmen well spawn there sense living Pigmen are most likely complete pigs. Not a failed attempt like a creeper.
when notch announced beta he said: We’ll also add some kind of non-intrusive narrative to the game to help drive the game experience early on, and to provide some kind of late game goal.
