Is so hard to see the pattern for westerners? Everything is cyclic. Days, years, civilizations and so on.
Yes, of course there are other forms of intelligent life in universe. There are also other forms of intelligent life on this planet 😉. Well, we are the dominant one though 😁.
But actually believing that we came to this stage only in the last ten thousand years is childish 😃.
Yeah, I know all the things science people told us in the last century, but keep in mind that they are people before being scientists 😉.
Which means, one or ones can lie bluntly just to keep their prestigious position in the history books.
Humans are telling lies every day, most of the times not even being aware about that. So, what's the truth when you have to trust someone's interpretation of a dead, long time forgotten language?

Also, what if we are god itself, and this is just a simulation game we enjoy in an afternoon? Where the aliens comes in place?

I mean, irrational numbers like phi and pie. Fractal geometry, the harmony between music and mathematics. And we still ask ourselves about existence of some aliens like in Hollywood movies?

Please ignore me, I am just ranting around without purpose 😅.
