Life's quite weird... I mean (this is all speculations and drawing from memory, etc etc etc) the discovery channel traced the begining of the universe to about 12 billion years ago and the earth is supposed to be 4 billion years old. We're in naerly perfect conditions for life to start and true intelligence didn't happen for almost 4 billion years.

It's quite possible that we are the only intelligent (sentient enough to understand we're sentient) beings in the universe. Of course, its also quite possible that something developed a billion years before we did and are a billion years ahead of us.

However, I believe that civilization won't advance to a point where it will matter, cause we'll end up killing each other anyways.

If the universe is truly infinite, then logically, there must be infinite amounts of everything in it. Don't feel like typing out a big long explanation right now though.

I'd worry if we ever did discover alien life. How many movies depict aliens as hostile invaders, and how many as peaceful beings or minding their own business? You just know a lot of idiots will just assume that since they're not from Earth, they're evil and should be killed. Then we get to see what kind of weapons they have!

Do you think it's a natural animal instinct to destroy competition? Because, if Aliens came here and they were more advanced and everything... I think some people would want to take them out simply because they would feel threatened. And if aliens came here, would the want to be peaceful or would they try and destroy us? That interests me. Maybe in their societies there is no such thing as mercy... or on the other hand there could be no such theory as destruction. Maybe they have completely different sets of emotions than us. Lifeforms could exist at many different mental capacities, which is why the thought of aliens interests me so much. If they evolved from microorganisms like we did... is it possible that there are multiple planets just like ours with very similar life forms? Like, another planet developing the exact same way this one has?

This is what I ponder when I look at the stars. There is so much we don't know about life.. but if someone doesn't sit here and think about it, we'll never know. Uh, not saying I'm going to find any answers.. that'd be silly.. but if everyone sat and thought and experimented.. and this was encouraged, we'd know a lot more about our universe.

Actually, I've pondered before about the similarities between really really simple basic life forms and computers. Especially considering brains are electric and silicon-based life is theoretically possible; one has to wonder how different the two really are.

Probably a lot of nonsense but what the hell.
