"Isn't it much more important to learn a bit about the world before we start shaping it in our image?"
Gonna have to go with, no.
There are over 6 billion monkeys on this planet, and the clock is ticking on what's left of our resources. Either we move some of the monkeys, or we remove some of the monkeys.

- Ar-Curunir 13y agoInteresting, your view of extraterrestial lifeforms is very similar to the approach of colonists in the 18th and 18th centuries - that the people/lifeforms being invaded were inferior to the colonists, and hence could be mistreated/mutilated/wiped out for the benefit of the invaders. Thankfully, scientists are not of this mindset.
