I personally think that it is very naive to presume that us humans are the only intelligent (if I might describe it thus) life forms in the universe.

I have to be honest and say that if I was an alien life form looking at our planet, I would be advising everybody and everything to stay well clear of the place.

Re: Do extra terrestrials exist.

It was pointed out somewhere that given the predatory nature of all life on earth its reasonable to assume anything lurking out in space is likely to be dangerous to us.

Sounds a bit scary, Tiffany. Could it have been the International Space Station going over?

Re: Do extra terrestrials exist.

Statistically, there is a very small but significant probability of higher life forms existing out there, but likewise this universe is just so vast, that it would be akin to a bacteria in the Seychelles running across a fungal cell on a fir in the middle of Canada. Not only is it geographically unlikely, its would likely be communicatively unlikely too.

When we finally run across life somewhere, it will likely be along the simplest lines of eukaryota, bacteria, or archaea (most likely because of the extremes of conditions in which they live.) The good news abut that is that they won't have invented Facebook yet.

Party pooper me. I'm getting my coat....
