What are your opinions about alien beings?
Duuuuuude, this is so much of a thing for me because I would say it’s most likely that they do or did at some point. I think it’s incredibly unlikely that no other planets have ever had life on them.
But!!! What do you think about the idea of Great Filters and that we should hope that we never find aliens or that we should hope all other aliens have already died off?
When I first heard this idea I resisted at first and had my mind kind of blown. Essentially the idea is that there are big events that could kill off a civilization, and if we never find aliens, but we keep existing, it suggests that we have made it past these Great Filters.
We can’t prove it, but it is unlikely there isn’t life out there, especially considering the multiverse.
@Bangaalore & Spreadlovenotwar: Yes, I’ve heard of the Great Filter. It’s an intimidating concept but I guess it’s inevitable. Not to get too conspiracy’d out but I believe that our government is is contact with aliens. There was footage released of unidentified flying objects with incredible capabilities. It’s difficult to think that there are any countries of our world with such capabilities.
Ohhh okay sorry this just isn’t a particular fancy I have, but you all have fun.
No problem. Say what you’d like. I’ll enjoy any discussion of the topic.
