People will believe in aliens

but won't believe in themselves

The concept is alien to them.

I believe in the you that believes in you.

Do you think that there is an alien out there that imagines there being a foreign planet with a message board that shitposts about human male cooling devices?

To me it's always been weird to me to question the very existence of aliens. With how infinitely massive the universe is, the idea that we are the only evolved form of life in it is ludicrous. The real thing should be questioning if they've visited us, which lol no.

I think its 2 main types of deniers

1. Religious people have a big problem with alien life existing. It potentially brings up a lot of uncomfortable questions for them

2. People who confuse aliens coming to earth to aliens simply existing in the universe. I think some people who say they don't believe in aliens really mean they just don't think they have come here.

Aliens will be the likely explanation conjured up after the Rapture to explain where all the missing people went.

In other words, don't believe it.

Your 2nd one brings up one problem. Existed. When you consider time and space from our perspective unless They are currently alive there won't be anything there. Light or signals left them long ago.

Now you could say in the timeline of the universe how long would a civilization last. Hundreds of thousands? Millions or even Billions of years. Our estimated time for the edge of the universe is upwards of 15 billion years now. Theres going to be a time where there was no organic compunds to develop. Lets say 8 or 10 billion years ago is a good estimate. We know that life on earth started about 1 billion years after creation. So we can correlate that on the low side 7 million years life starts. Its taken 3.3 billion years for intelligent life on earth to show up that we know of. So that 7 billion becomes mid 3 billion.. Now we know the rate of expansion of the universe from our prespective. IntellIgent life has a very small chance to still exsist within that time span. A civilization excaping a single planet is rare. One extinction event or killing themselves away from going poof. How many did that happen to? So I think intellengent life is exceedling rare. You might have 2 or 3 in our galaxy other than us that already lived and died. We will never know because we cant physically explore. There is also billions and billions of stars. You would never find them. They would have to leave a huge sign pointing we are here. So the Dark forest theory is mostly true. We are alone.

That's if the universe itself is dead. There is a chance that the fundamental nature of the universe is actually intelligent, and the natural path is for life to develop

What about less intelligent life though? Like planets of just animals no advanced intelligent species comparable to humans?

We only know that intelligence took 3 billion years to develop on Earth. We don't know if that is the case on other planets. It might be different.
