Intelligent Life?

[Rainbow]

I am a believer in this particular mystery and I genuinly think only narrow minded, ignorant minds would dismiss intelligent life elsewhere. Consider the size of the universe, logically it cannot end and then also consider the age of the universe, again we cannot even imagine the number of years it has existed. Then there is the fact that life exists on Earth, in more than one form , i.e Humans, Other Animals, Insects and so on... You mst be very unreasonable and ignorant to assume that we are the ONLY intelligent life in the universe.

Humans believe that we are intelligent, I too think I am fairly smart; so unless I am missing something and been taught wrong, it seems to me extra-terrestrial life is more than just a probability, and to me it is a very high possibility. Consider how long it took for us to evolve on Earth. Apparently Homo Sapiens have existed on Earth for about 200,000 years or so. It is a relative short time of man's existence on Earth compared to the age of the universe, ad to me it seems almost like a fact that there has to be some kind of more intelligent species on Earth.

The Universe wont be crammed with masses of intelligent life, since the things that happened on earth for life even to exist were very lucky, several different disasters, then specific evolutionary factors would have to happen as well for a animal to develop a big enough brain. Then we would have to have the luck of the strange event of consciousness to happen as well, there could be an alien with all the characteristics thats needed, but could just be an pure animal with no self awareness which we enjoy. The universe is almost infinite in time and space, so there probably will be other life but we wont meet them and have babies together like a bad star trek episode.

However I suppose the size and age should not be up for debate as no one can question it due to the lack of information on the matter other than upon standard logic and scientific observation, and scientific speculation as to the size and nature of the universe makes it 100% that there is other life, this is a mathmatical certainty. Whether we will ever meet it, that is questionable. For me my mind is made up and the answer is simple, I just need to consider the following;

There is life in the universe

Based on principles of physics the universe is always expanding and is for all intents and purposes infinite in size

Therefore - A universe with one group of life and infinite size with variety in nature as we observe everywhere, will contain more than one.

How could they do it on their own without any technology, we would struggle to build them today? I find it interesting that in a culture where two story homes were unheard of and all the temples and monuments were built on a one-story plan, that the Great Pyramid contains no less than four (and quite possibly five if the rumors are true) levels. The Pyramids are quite unlike anything built before or since in Egypt. Let us not forget the narrow passages that point directly to Sirius and Orions; Belt. Why were they there? No one was meant to enter the tomb after it was sealed. Surely such an view of those Stars would be wasted on Egyptian Astronomers who could never enter? So what was their purpose? Well a central belief of Egyptian religion was that the deceaseds spirit would continue to use their tomb after their journey to the Underworld. So we can only conclude that these viewing holes were for the use of the Pharoahs Ka. And why would the Pharoah need to see Sirius and Orions Belt? Was He perhaps waiting for a message from the stars? A messsage from the beings that helped him craft his grand monument? Dont you guys remember something being geometrically the same !!!

Also look at ancient egyptian art, near all the pharaos there are mystical people like figures with MASSIVE heads, and there has been many conspiracy theories that US are hiding something from us... and even someone that hacked the NASA computer found alien space crafts... maybe they discovered it when they pretended to land on the moon? I think we may be aware of it... But realistically if we found out they existed we would start to panic, so if they are hiding it, in a sense its for our own good.

Also how can you explain our quick evolution... from cavemen we went to building pyramids and then producing technology like TV's and mobiles... maybe an alien came down and gave them to us. :-D

People that are religious will ofcourse say we have proof against this theory; as the religious sacred texts show us there was only one creator and there is only one life however what I would say to that is, provide evidence, provide reason, provide something other than pointing to the bible or another sacred text. What are your views on this matter?

I am a believer are you? :lol:

Re: Intelligent Life?

This is a topic that I find interesting, I've always wondered about if 'aliens' really do exist. I suppose you could be right on how we developed out technology and I never thought of it like that. It could be possible that they came down and said "Here, take this device called a TV" or we simply found a bit of technology left behind and adapted it?

Earth has Oxygen and humans adapated to that, Other planets have .... Who knows, but other life could of adapted to that to and effect the way they look (as we do suggest that aliens look extremely different to us).

I do truely believe in other life, and I think it would be amazing if one day more evidence was put forward. One day Area 51 might show the world a space ship they found :wink:

Rainbow suggests another good point, If we evolved and taught ourselfs new thing's, why can't anyone/anything else on another planet.

People say that there needs to be some kind of water on a planet for any life to exist, we don't know that :lol: aliens could strive on bits in space like dust!

Nice topic!
