Liz Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Do you think there is intelligent life out there, somewhere in space? or do you believe that we are the only intelligent beings in this universe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mufasa Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Are you kidding? There's not even intelligent life here. Unless you count Dolphins. There probably is other intelligent life out there. But we probably will never see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Media Junkie Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Intelligent life out in space either doesn't exist or is so far away that we will never contact it in our great grandchildrens' lifetimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) That depends which is the most you believe. Theism, Deism, Polytheists, Pantheists, ontological argument, cosmological argument, argument from design, atheism, free will, soft/hard determinism, and nihilists...

It doesn't depend on what you believe, those are just opinions. That's like saying I believe I am black so I am, reality does not function that way. I believe there is at least life somewhere in the universe, it might not be intelligent in the least, but I find it hard to believe that in this entire universe there is only one planet with life.

Fiora Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I don't see why there wouldn't be. Earth can't be the only planet of so many galaxies and whatnot to contain intelligent life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I remember reading about some membrane theory a few years ago, which detailed, in essence, the capacity for an infinite amount of universes to exist, or something along those lines. If this were true, even if the chance for life was laid at a point indescribably miniscule, there'd still be an infinite amount of life existing as well. Aside, I don't see why Earth is special enough to deserve life. If life sprang up because of anything, then there's the chance for whatever the preceding event was to occur once more. Be it of intention or chaos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGV Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Does it have to be intelligent life? Wouldn't it be good enough if it was just "life" on other planets? What if we found life elsewhere but it wasn't... well, intelligent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eltoshen Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Not you. Yeah, unlike you, I don't feel the need to brag about intelligence. It's not something that automatically gains my respect, in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacken Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Yeah, unlike you, I don't feel the need to brag about intelligence. It's not something that automatically gains my respect, in any case.Seeing as how Black Knight is probably the smartest person around not named Blacken, I'd say he has some room to brag.The question of intelligent life is an interesting one. That said, the sheer mindfucking size of the universe and speed limit c ensures that, in all likelihood, humans will never actually run into any non-human intelligent life that we didn't make.

Steven Tyler Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Yeah, unlike you, I don't feel the need to brag about intelligence. It's not something that automatically gains my respect, in any case. Don't interrupt his therapy! It's wrong, he just needs a little help feeling high and mighty and we're here to help him out in any way! While I do believe there might be intelligent life in outer space, there is no doubt in my mind that we may never get to see it or a nice visit from them.

Judge Judy Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Do you think there is intelligent life out there, somewhere in space? or do you believe that we are the only intelligent beings in this universe? I am not sure. I don't believe that there is life out of space in the manner of you speak of, such as an Alien. On some plants there have found some Microbes which could be considered as being. But in the context of the topic question, no I don't think intelligent life that exceeds us Humans exist. Are you stupid? There are other ways to present your argument instead of calling them ''stupid.'' Lets try not to stoop so low to insult members to prove your point.

Herr Wozzeck Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I'd have to say that I'm not entirely sure if there is even life in the rest of the universe. And if there is, chances are we'll probably never see them. I think we've reached a kind of consensus, don't you, guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uguu Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Are you kidding? There's not even intelligent life here. This. But really now, if there wasn't life in other places in the universe then it would make no sense at all. The universe. It is big. Very big. Very very very very very big. The Earth. It is small. Very small. Very very very very very small. Yeah... you can probably see where I'm going with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I recall that a topic like this was made before and my answer remains the same (not exact): "Humans can't be the most intelligent life forms" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
