I'll stick with my two points. The OP claims that because animals exist in unusal places on Earth that there should be aliens who will visit us. The Fermi Paradox attempts to address why they might not. The possibility of a multidimensional universe addresses why nothing we experience on Earth is necessarily related to any kind of "physical reality," and that includes the existence of said strange animals and/or aliens.
- kmlx 8y agoi take issue with the Fermi paradox: - it’s a theory created by humans for humans; it’s a product of our extremely narrow and short existence - timeframe wise we’ve been living on Earth for a very limited amount of time (peanuts compared to our planet’s history) - we’ve barely started to understand our planet, nevermind our universe the Fermi paradox smells of our inability to humble ourselves in front of something much more complex than anything else in our history as a species.
- kstenerud 8y ago"The OP claims that because animals exist in unusal places on Earth that there should be aliens who will visit us." Show a quote from the article where he states this.
- mimixco 8y agoI concede that was my misinterpretation. On closer inspection, the OP didn't suggest anything other than "finding" life, not have it visit us. Thanks for pointing that out.
- schwartzworld 8y agoIsn't the Fermi paradox about intelligent life? There's a lot of life on Earth that you wouldn't expect to make interstellar contact.
