I do think the odds of us being the only planet with life on it extremely slim. However assuming the life on other planets are similar to us, they would require quite a lot, a good balance of hot and cold, and atmosphere, and a water like substance, if they are not like us in those ways then odds are our comming together may not happen since we'll probably try and terroform the planet destroying them all.

Also i doubt there are superior aliens out there like on movie, when are we going to be superior?

Never.

Humans don't get along on a larger scale (I could've worded that better but, whatever, you know what I mean). We will be our own eventual demise. The only time I ever seen people come together where they weren't doin' things that were harming society was right after 9/11 in New York City. Crime on all levels drastically dropped. It takes the 9/11 attacks to bring people together, somewhat, and make them not wanna do bad things to each other and shit like that. Pshh...

Like the Matrix. The unplugged humans were all united because they were being attacked from the outside of what they were use to.

I could've made this better but Its late and I'm tired, if no one respnds soon enough I'll come back and edit this and make it sound a whole lot better.

But we'll never be superior. Never.

Eon posted something there about "Monkeysphere" that I read before. A somewhat humourous article that kinda helps my arguement here...

Sorta.

Actually this sounds fine. I'm not changin' nothin'.

Back on topic. Why do people say that we will kill ourselves, and that humanity sucks. I personally like humanity quite a bit. I think that it was not the violence that caused the people of new york unite, but the fact that they all had a common goal and and that they all felt hit by the attack, as a city. If all humanity can be united under a common goal, then we might not be so messed up. And as for life on other planets, most definately, though not neccessarily in this galaxy, cos there are millions out there. The fact that people can be so close minded really annoys me.

*EDIT* Fixed the quotes a bit.
