Question

animals dont understand when there is an airplane following them. they may think is a big bird or something mythical are we the same is there stuff that we dont understand is there more inteligent life watching over us who know but just think about it.

Answer 1

Well, judging by the standards and relevance of most of the questions being asked in this and a few other forums here, I'd doubt if humanity would rate even a distant 3rd in overall intelligence. God help this planet when most of you are old enough to make the decisions concerning the running of this planet!!! And don't go blaming your elders or the education system, entirely, for your lack of intelligence and general dysfunction.

As to your question, which is OK......who knows?? If you subscribe to the Gaia Hypothesis, you could say that the entire planet was the intelligent superorganism, so far beyond us that we didn't or couldn't even recognise it if we tried. There's more to intelligence than just a big brain and the capacity to develop a technology and sophisticated society. There are levels of intelligence and sentience which we may never be able to recognise because they lie totally out of our field of experience. For all we know, we're probably sitting near the bottom of the rung on the intelligence ladder.....it's only our ignorant hubris which makes us believe we're so smart.

Answer 2

If we are the most inteligent life on this planet thenw e are doomed. Look how we are dystoring this planet bit by bit. I like to think someone or something else is watching over us and will come to kick or butts when we really screw up this planet.

Answer 3

Probably the animals believe is something that is going to eat them. About more intelligent life, we don't know, not in the earth, in the universe, who knows? God makes great works.

Answer 4

We're it. Top 'o the food web.

Answer 5

No, it's us.

Answer 6

GOD!!!
