There are two possibilities, either we’re alone in the universe, or we aren’t. I don’t know which is true, but both are equally frightening.
Both are equally something, but not frightening. Two possibilities:
a. If they are there, watching warily from a distance (we are frightening to them), we need to grow up: we no doubt have work to do when we are fit to be hired;
b. If we are alone in the universe, excepting of course the One, the Eternal, the Creator, we need to grow up: we no doubt have work to do and no one but ourselves to hire.
Who said there was only one universe?
That about fills it - in a nutshell.
Like the ruling powers of Rome, back in the days of scientists like Copernicus, you could be put to the stake for suggesting things like "the earth orbits the sun and is not the center of the Universe" = Copernicus narrowly escaped being roasted, but the Inquisition put him under house arrest for the remainder of his lifetime - just one more roadblock to mankind's progression. And, heaven forbid anyone suggest that, in the billions of other stars "out there" like our sun, just might have planet systems too - better keep that under your hat if you didn't want to be a the main course at a public BBQ. It's only been recently that scientists have discovered and allowed as how our solar system is not the freak of the Universe = i.e. the only one in a unmeasurable super Universe full of literally billions of star systems...The Universes operate on set laws that opperate system wide. No matter how big the misplaced idea/ego that we are the biggest, best and most intelligent thing ever to happen to the Universe = 'tain't so. At least, I hope the Universe isn't in such dire straights
“I don’t know which is true, but both are equally frightening.”
Don’t worry, you’re among freepers.
True!
“I don’t know which is true, but both are equally frightening.”
Neither is frightening and there is NO evidence to suggest we aren’t alone. NONE! This does not frighten me.
