hi
Several prominent scientist would agree with you. Steven Pinker, MIT, supports the idea that the evolution of intelligence, as we have it, is like the evolution of the elephant trunk. It is a response to a particular set of environmental effects that we can only truly be certain of on earth. I half believe this, but I think that "intelligence" which we identify as that which is couched in our human terms is probably likely to arise because it is generally a good tool for a living thing to have to aid survival. Just because an alien can have intelligence doesn't mean they are "more advanced." In fact we, as humans, wouldn't probably have the capacity to understand them if we ran into them anyway because our ability to comprehend the behaviors of living things is strictly limited to Earth inhabitants (and we aren't great at figuring that out either).

Doesn't have to be more advanced, but I'm guessing it is. Humans are so arrogant (and brain washed by religion) that most feel that earth has the only life and the few that think there could be life out there - think that humans are Superior.

I like to think it would be. It can't be any more backward than the human race.
We might be able to fly to the moon, or transplant new organs but we can barely be civil to each other.
I like to imagine the little fella's to be more advanced in every way.
