• OK, sure… do you know how much nothing there is out there? The gap between us and the nearest star is 4.25 lightyears…

      If there’s life out there, and they are capable of getting here, we don’t want them to come here. We don’t want to meet them. Imagine being an ant, and a human decides that they don’t want your anthill on their lawn… That’s basically where we’d be with them. If this is even remotely possible it is very bad news for us.

        Oh, the politics and ramifications of first contact is a whole 'nother kettle of fish, but i’m talking about the ridiculous concept that we are somehow the only intelligent life in the universe. Such horseshit.
