The human body is a miraculous thing...but greed and power sure screws up human existence.
And the Creator laughs at the stupidity of arrogant, rebellious humans to think this intricately designed universe is a cosmic accident.
Since there’s no intelligent life on earth, no reason to believe it’s anywhere.
Not disagreeing, but wondering how scientists and statisticians are defining and quantifying miracles.
So scientists believe in miracles now
Perhaps those avowed to hate God should reconsider the Bible
Intelligent life COULD exist elsewhere in the universe. There’s no reason God wouldn’t create other life somewhere else. (Evolution not a thing.)
So rare that only on planet earth, only in the country of the United States of America, and only from 1776 to 2020 did we have such intelligent, and civilized place to live.
And now, something so unique is gone.
Will we ever see it? Probably not; interstellar distances are too vast for details like that to become observable.
I don’t have any data to look at, but think it is HIGHLY LIKELY that there IS life elsewhere in the universe.
Not only is there life on earth, there are millions and millions of different kinds of life on earth.
And I get the same answer whether I look at is as God-D created the universe or, it just happened. If the doings of God-D, why create just one planet with life when He created millions of different life forms on earth. And if by chance, if it happened here it seems likely that the conditions occurred elsewhere as well.
I think if intelligent life elsewhere in the universe had been thinking of introducing themselves to us that after viewing us this past year they would conclude were are far too beneath them in intelligence to bother.
These include the emergence of primitive life from non-living matter (known as abiogenesis).
This is their biggest reason and their biggest mistake. I doubt this happened on earth. Life likely started on thousands of planets over billions of years before the earth was formed. Some of these life-sustaining planets experienced explosive catastrophic events (supernovas, collisions with other planets, etc...). Comets would travel through clouds of life and seed other planets.
The more planets seeded and exploded the more life would be spread through the universe by these wandering comets. Earth is young compared to the universe, so the seeding of life could have been occurring for billions of years, spanning millions of planets. Look at the moon and see the impacts, maybe even a few life seeding comets struck it too, it just that it wasn’t suitable to sustain life.
I only realized a lot later that Carl Sagan should have gotten an “F” for that stupid equation of his. Differences in the denominator, a whole string of coefficients, all pulled out of his arse.
The truth is, he would just say anything to get into an ugly girl’s pants.
That there is life on Earth, intelligent or otherwise, is truly amazing, but since we’re our only sample, I believe it is meaningless. Of course, statistically, a sample of 1 is meaningless.
I think it is even more amazing, and perhaps telling, that of all of the species on Earth, there is only 1 with verbal and written communication as used by Man. That might suggest that the universe could be full of plankton, if there is life at all.
The reason we haven’t heard from any other life forms is because there probably isn’t any.
If God can create intelligent life on this planet He can create it on other planets. He can create other planets on which to place life and intelligent life.
Who says we are an intelligent species. Endless wars, petty squabbles, religious bigotry and the kicker, Joe Biden do not signify intelligence. More like instinctive behavior.
Nah, in the grand scheme of things, we are as rocks to intelligent life.
