Do Aliens Exist?

[Alphabear 11]

The hole in the ozone layer that appeared above antarctica is no the major issue that it once was. Together the world is helping to rectify that problem. However global warming is a different issue and one that is verymuch a threat to our way of life and the natural world

back to topic..

 

ironically, i recently bought AREA 51 for PS2..its interesting..

 

it is logical to assume that there is intelligent life in the KNOWN universe besides us

[sith_wampa 6]

It is also very likely that we are the only intelligent life in the universe. It took millions of years for humans to evolve on Earth. For all we know, it could take even longer for life to evolve on other planets. If there is life, its probably just microorganisms and such.

[rEdaSbLood 1]

if i remember correctly, the universe is estimated to be around 15 billion years old...the earth is only around 4 billion...

 

there is plenty of time for life to evolve, and even expire, on other planets in other galaxies..

 

also, we are carbon based...there is plenty of carbon out there...also, it is theorized that life could be silicon based...which would most likely mean that evolution would take longer for those types of life forms...but still..

 

it is pretty snooty to say that we are the only life forms in the UNIVERSE...even the only intelligent ones...

 

the universe is supposedly HUUUUUUUGE...unimaginably so

 

also, we made up the word intelligent, and we consider ourselves intelligent...

 

if we are so intelligent why do we have trouble with things such as energy and peace and space exploration?

 

EDIT: dont get me wrong, we may very well be the only life forms in the universe..

Since alien life possibly would have 11 billion years to evolve, im thinking of an INVASION!!!

+ = ?

 

Well... they will probably look more like eight legged cyborg killers.

 

anyways (offtopic) I still think the end of the world would be an insane dictator with lots of nukes!

[sith_wampa 6]

If there were monsters like that out there we would most likely know that they are out there. And if they were out there, they probably would have already killed us...

[TheBlackOut 7]

Or they can just find us.... Anyday.

[Guest Auronguardian]

Well there is the other side of the dice, what if they arent advanced at all but actually primitive, and fears us or any other being in space?

[sith_wampa 6]

then we enslave them!

[rEdaSbLood 1]

no, then we enlighten them... we do not bully them,it would be against all that we have come to consider humane..if we were them and they were us, would we like to be bullied, or if the situation flips and they become better than us, should we fill them with vengence or gratitude?

[Luk3us 63]

Enlighten my ass. Humans don't enlighten ****, they conquer and convert.

[sith_wampa 6]

Word.

[rEdaSbLood 1]

yea you're both right we should dominate

 

but we should be careful because the tides can turn....

[sith_wampa 6]

Most likely they will completely destroy us or we will completely destroy them. The chances that we are at the same point in our technological advancements are slim to none...

[Guest Rabbit]

What, so none of you believe there is ANY possibility of friendship? You think we're all just going to kill each other for the hell of it?

[Guest Auronguardian]

Umm.. well let me think...

 

Yes. We are going to tear apart anything that we see.

[sith_wampa 6]

Name one animal species that has ever wanted to be friends with another.

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Name one animal species that has ever wanted to be friends with another.

PETA.

 

Owned.

[sith_wampa 6]

Oh darn, ya got me...

[TheBlackOut 7]

What, so none of you believe there is ANY possibility of friendship? You think we're all just going to kill each other for the hell of it?

 

It could, but it'd be an uneasy friendship as both sides wouldn't know if they'd betray each other. Now if we were like, "Can you kill terrorism and communism?" and did that, then we'd definitely be friends!

Name one animal species that has ever wanted to be friends with another.

we aren't animals, so how exactly is that related? :?:

[Luk3us 63]

Err, we are animals... It just many people think we're better than that...

[F15pilotX 4]

not in that sense of the word, I mean we're not made the same as animals :wink:

 

but yes, humans can act like animals at times

[Guest Auronguardian]

Watch the George Carlin special called "Life is worth Losing"

 

He talks all about how we are no more different from animals.

[F15pilotX 4]

he's dead wrong then
