  1. I'm kidding. But all jokes aside, the fermi paradox refrences the atomic physicist Enrico Fermi who in an interview was asked about like on other planets. His response was a simple if there is intelegent life on other planets why have we not found them yet or vise versa. It's not a perfect awnser but it's really the best that can be said about it with out outstanding credible evidence. I personally believe that aliens do not exist. But I'm not going to pretend to be knowledgeable to know the awnser.
     
  2. Mexican and Irish immigrants technically count as aliens. So yes.
     
  3. Also, Paul. I'm not gonna use big language, I'm just gonna say that the universe is as big as motherfucker and the obvious reason for not being able to find intelligent life in other planets is the limit of our forms of communication, i.e. they suck. Space is huge and radio waves can only travel a small distance, for fuck's sake, the light we see from other stars is as old as my dead great great great great grandfather, maybe even older, which goes to show how long it takes for the fastest thing known to travel in space from one point to another. Not to mention the belief that humanity is the only intelligent life in the universe is fucking retarded. The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.
     
  4. I said I might not be right. I'm not ignorant enough to claim I know the awnser. But to say that because of the size of the universe, there must be other life is flawed logic. Also, why does it matter what kind of language I use? You could as be right just as easily as I am.
     
  5. The idea that the vastness of the universe doesn't equal the possibility of life is even more absurd. Take deserts for example. Big, wide, areas full of nothing. But travel in the right direction and you'd end up finding an oasis. Oasis are simply cracks in the earth that allow for water to escape from there and flow onto the surface, allowing for an area, small as it may be, to sustain life. They're caused by accidents in nature. We know that there are several of them on Earth, all with life being supported by them. What I'm getting at is that accidents aren't always contained. The odds that Earth is the only planet with life is less likely than there being several planets with life, hell! There's even a Second Earth with similar conditions as ours! Whether or not intelligent life is there is up for debate, but it would seem odd not to find even a fucking fish or two penguins going at it.
     
  6. Listen, calm down. I'm not saying your wrong. There very well could be life out there. There isn't enough evidence to prove either side so untill either is proved I will remain loosely following my opinion
     
  7. As I said, the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.
    And mad? Who's mad?! I'M NOT MAD!! AAARGHH!!! *flips table*
     
  8. Oh snap chewy snapped! Call Han solo!
