I take that many of you have seen movie "Contact". So what do you think the philosophical terms of it. If we ever (hopefully) get in get touch with another being, will that answer some of our questions about us being as human being as clever as we are told.

I think it just happened. If you think about it, we serve no purpose really...so techincally aren't we just a waste too?

you're making fake assumption by way of asserting that we are the only existence. This has not been shown. "What has not been shown is invalid!" those good old scientists additionally stumbled on organisms on the comets that fell on earth. so as that shows we are actually not the only living creatures in the universe. those creatures won't seem as we do inspite of the undeniable fact that it proves that existence occurring in outer area. At this 2d we don't have the potential to get some distance and discover out if there are others available. So how can we are saying waste of area while we've not considered it! the assumption of a million of 9 planets is in basic terms our existence sort can stay in this ecosystem noted as Earth! capture up with to the solar we burn. Get too some distance from the solar we freeze!

I think humans would be ignorant about it, and continue thinking we're the smartest things out there. Already on our own planet there are animals more clever and better equipped for survival than us, but we just don't see it. If there is no other life out there, it's not a waste of space by the "creator", because the way the sun and moon and planets and stars move affects the Earth directly, everything out there works in a delicate balance to ensure survival...wherever life may be!

There is a grippingly wonderful series playing at the moment on Sky channel Discovery Science called "Are we what we think we are?" or something along those lines which is attempting to answer these questions that millions of us have from time to time. The programmes feature the most eminent philosophers, scientists and astronomers of our times all discussing the universe and it's endless possibilities. You should try to watch it, it will provide much more educationally worthwhile subject matter for you to think about.

I believe that there has to be other planets similar to ours out there, maybe they have only evolved as far as we have, so they cannot contact us yet. But it is illogical and egotistical to believe that we are all that there is considering the size of outer space. No I'm not one of those who think we are being visited or experimented on, I'm just intelligent enough to know that everything is possible given the right situation.

Is there other life in the Universe?

Of course there is.

There are Trillions of celestial beings who traverse the stars, who once walked the earth when the dinosaurs lived.

They are called:

stars of God
sons of God
the heavenly host
angels
seraphims
cherubims

You have to realize that God physically exists; He is just physically different. And long before man walked the earth, God created a race of beings who still live to this day.

There are mysteries beyond imagining.

And the greatest mystery...

We have only glimpsed at the true nature of everything.

we dnt know what lies beyond so we can't say if there is anything living out there or not, and the beauty of it is there will always be a space left to be wondered about and mystify everyone and that i think is the main clever thing that we humans understand.

of course there is. if scientist found creatures living in the deepest darkest part of the ocean where sulfur only spews, why can't there be other intelligent creatures on other planets that might possibly survive off of breathing in sulfur and carbon monoxide and drink only acid rain? Just because they don't meet our standards of what constitutes "life"?

I do think there's life elswhere, but not in our solar system, why should we be the only planet with life? There may be people more advanced or back in the cavemen days - it recks your head thinking about space!!!
