What If No Other Life Exists?

It does not matter for your life whether alien life exists.

What if it DOES???

True but then again my life and the life of everyone else seems pretty moot too me.

What if you didn't read or understand science?

Oh wait. There is obviously life out there.

Let me take it back a notch. Look at planet Earth. Even if we won the lottery, what makes you think there isn't life out there? oh my, what if...

To quote Carl Sagan,

" if it is only us, it sure is a big waste of space."

Op what if I told you their is other intelligent life out their and their living here on earth. Seek and you shall find friend. You keep knocking on the door of ghe unknown snd something will awnser, it did for me at least.
;)

Another thing dont spend to much time on the thought its a waste of time, because even tho their is other life out their how will that help any of us, somethings are better left unknown. Just enjoy the precious time you have on earth worrying about things that you have no control over will just drive you crazy. :)

It does, but if it didn't, there would still be tunes bro.
Unless there were no tunes. Then perhaps I would get a little stroppy lol

This

There are tons of lives and people and places that you will NEVER EVER see in your lifetime, so as far as you're concerned, they might as well not exist.

Atheists and The Religious can rant about it every day, but it really doesn't cancel nor prove any god exists, if there are any life out there or not.

It's all egoism, in my opinioin

It's like this op.
Our galaxy has trillions of stars, suns, planets. (Soak that in for a sec)

Now imagine Trillions & Trillions of Galaxy's.....
And we're alone.....? Not likely.

There is over a billion Earth sized planets orbiting in the habitable zone of (our)Sun like stars in our galaxy alone. There are over 170 billion galaxies in the observable universe. It would be a little strange to say the least if Earth was the only one with life on it.

You want to hear something trippy OP...
Ok I tell

Imagine for a sec, that you are Spok. One sec, wrong story.

Ok ok, now imagine that everything in the entire Multiverse exists within the earth atom sphere.

Everything within this sphere, also exists outside the sphere. Following me.

There is the power of the Universe within the brain. The strength of the Multiverse within the grasp.

Basically there are 2 options:

1) Aliens exist somewhere.

If this is the case you will not encounter any alien in your lifetime. It will take several years to get there, even at the speed of light. One way.

2) Aliens exist and they are here as some people claim, but fail to provide evidence ever since

In this case it is apparent the aliens here had no effect on your life whatsoever. Simply getting to know they have been here for whatever period will not have any effect on your life.

On a side note, we only differ about 5% from chimps, DNA related. Thus if aliens are just 5% different from us, we are most likely going to appear as chimps to them.

Besides that, planet earth has so many life forms (billions!), and none of them is capable to communicate with us in a form that we could trade technics or something.

Also why would aliens come here? What they want here? They can get ressources everywhere else in the universe, most locations are probably not as far away as earth. So it does not even make sense they come here from an economical point of view.

So, no. Aliens do not visit us. Anyone believing this is a moran. But yes, there might be some slimy sort of worm somewhere out there.

its impossible for us to be the only form of ''intelligent'' life in the universe.

then we are safe from any kind of invasion. we will continue killing each other happily ever after....

If you think that you are alone in this universe or that you are the guardians of this universe, then you are rudely mistaken

I firmly believe we are not the only life, however, I also believe we haven't been visited. My husband likes to say that most people, for some reason, believe it's their generation that will see aliens yet there really is not real reason for this to be so.

LOL..."intelligent", LOL...if we're so fucking intelligent, why are we continually killing each other?

No, if this is "intelligent life", you'd have to be retarded to stop by here for a visit.

Wouldn't it be funny if we were the only inhabited planet in the universe, and we managed to exterminate ourselves fighting over some stoopid made up shit in a bunch of silly corksuckers holy books?

thats why ive written ''intelligent'' between ''... only a fool would think the auto-destructive human race is intelligent.

What if it does - and it doesn't - both at the same time, or whatever one you want to see first?

Agreed, because of mathematics and probabilities.

Agreed because it is counter to what I believe is the purpose of finite intelligent life forms to exist at all in the first place.

Sure makes me happy all the time....what if it couldn't expand ?
