Yeah, that's part of the big appeal of internet forums.

My comment was meant to be a generalization... not anecdotal of this specific thread.

That means 2012 must be true.........


but yeah, I'm always amazed at how big space is..........

like people always say how short life is.............which is true, but we'll say the average human life span is 70 years. That is about .0000000047% of the time since the universe began............

now compare that to our size in the universe. The average person is probably 5'7" 165lbs roughly. That is probably about .0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000001% of all space in universe.

It's probably much bigger than that, and that would just be judging by the farthest stars we can measure. Scientists stilll don't know if the universe is finite or not. If it was infinite, you would go decimal point infinite # of zero's to get accurate comparison. Whoa, gnarly dude.

i can't even fathom how long it has been around. Could you imagine if you could travel back to the very first moment of time? If there even is one. Whether or not there are other intelligent beings out there somewhere, or there isn't, it's still amazing either way.

There's just as good of a chance that we are the only intelligent life as there is that we aren't.

Logically, the universe has to be finite if you believe in the big bang theory, which most scientists do. Most scientist can only make theories based on the big bang if they assume the universe to be finite.

There really isn't a point to attempting to understand what happens outside of our known universe while basing logic on known universal laws, because outside of the universe, those laws would not apply.
So what you get is basically a scientific logic that is contained within this universe.
Not that it's limited, because as you've said, the universe sure is a big motherfucker.

Idk what trashbin of thought you ever got this from; but my suggestion is to return it and never ever go back there again.

so you can prove that there is a better chance of there being other intelligent life somewhere besides us? There is no way of telling.

Unfortunately, I agree with you.

Mathematically speaking, in context with what we know and what we don't, there's an intensely far better chance that we're not alone in the universe than the chance that we are.

Statistics can't even be a part of the argument, because it's too vast of a possibility landslide for it to be debatable.
