Like your thought process Mups - I think there is already life through another dimension, we have not yet encountered - they can just appear through it, no problem ......

Westminster is proof that there is life on other planets. They are certainly not from this one!

Bit like reincarnation. We must keep coming back to learn from, and put right, the mistakes we made previously.
It's supposed to be impossible to destroy life completely, it just takes on a different form. Bit like water seems to disappear, but it only turns to cloud or steam and condensation instead, then comes back somewhere else as water again.

Getting back to the planets though, perhaps they all had life forms on them once, and will do again, when it's their turn.

The term out of phase in this context means that our evolution has reached a different point than exists somewhere in the universe. We may be ahead but equally as much we could be behind, just like we would be looked at as being more advanced than some tribe in the Brazilian rain forest. We don't need to hunt for food. We don't have to build our own houses and we have access to medical treatment when we need it but we are still humans like they are but their evolution is out of phase with us. The reasons for this are very complex and are not fully understood.
Beings out in the Universe could be incredibly advanced compared to us. They might consider that we are so primitive that we are not even worth
considering or visiting.

Re: Is there intelligent life out there?

I am quite intrigued on the time eliment. If we do develope new methods of passing through space, and if we do make it to a planet that does supprt life. How long will it take someone to say `wonder what these taste like`...

There is an enormous decline in meat demand compared with the past.

Re: Is there intelligent life out there?

I think there is but I don't want to meet them . I think we would not be immune to the things they are and vice versa so it would be disaster for them and us .
