For later.
Lot of assumptions with the Fermi Paradox that may not be true.
“Where in the timeline does the Great Filter occur? “
The Great Filter is... bureaucratization!
It’s destroyed every known civilization that’s been destroyed, and yet every civilization chooses to employ it.
Bureaucratization is the most dangerous power in the universe.
And no civilization can resist it.
The Secret is in the Circle. .
Fascinating post!
...perhaps we are the only ones, per the account in Genesis.
All that stuff out there is for us to populate once we get past the Great White Throne Judgement.
Either way, fascinating stuff.
The real Fermi paradox is just how in Hell did supposedly intelligent man ever elect such an anti-American president...twice?
Well, maybe there are only so many monoliths to go around :)
Seriously, this the second Fermi-paradox article I have read this week, and it’s very interesting that both of them consider an incredible variety of highly speculative solutions, while deliberately ignoring the most obvious possible explanation.
“O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not...”
Hmmm...Wonder if this examined in greater detail in Common Core documents...

SETI is for people obsessed with looking only in one direction for other consciences.
Years ago I made the acronym SQuInt (Search for Quantum Intelligence)
Mathematically the microcosm also offers an infinity of places to look.
The perspective on the size of things may be as relative as time and space.
I have yet to see any scientific work that demonstrates the size of one’s conscience or where and how it exists....
May be more about one’s faith than what we think our eyes and other senses perceive is reality.
Thanks LibWhacker. Extra to X-Planets.

The problem is that our neighbors never take down their Christmas lights so we can't see the rest of the galaxy!
Humans’ profound inability to understand the Cosmos does not mean that there are any paradoxes. Reality is intact. Humans’ understanding of it is inadequate.
When humans think their minds can encompass the universe they usurp for themselves the role of the Creator.
I would postulate that one of the points of the great filter would be the ability to leave the planet and colonize another planet. You cant get to CivII until that is possible.
We are not there yet.
There is no paradox. Aliens have already colonized Earth disguised as domestic cats.
Kubrick originally wanted to do Childhood’s End but somebody else already had the film rights. Perhaps intelligent species evolve into something non-physical.

This screed is 100% ‘Anti-Science.’

Tons of assertions; absolutely no basis.
