How can we then as humans, sit back in our easy chairs here on Earth and make critical assumptions as to what exist around us? This is exactly the arrogance I am referring to when it comes to many explanations that require an in-depth study, yet we simply assume we have all the answers just because we feel there are no other explanations in which to work with. Lack of evidence surely does not mean something does not or cannot exist. It is simply absurd.
Life could not only survive but flourish under different physiological conditions that are totally opposite of life here on Earth. The human organism is created to thrive in the conditions of it surroundings. Therefore the warmth of the sun and the exact distance the Earth lies from the sun is part of the overall recipe for life. Humans need heat, not too much and not too little to survive. This is not relevant just on the human organism itself, but to other life on Earth that works in unison to help sustain us. Animals and plants depend on our climate as much as we do and in turn we use these same animals and plants to help us survive.
It is a circle of life here on Earth; everything works in unison to keep our planet in a state of the living. I guess we could say that since we are the dominant creatures of this planet, then the very make-up of our own bodies are the guidelines for all of the other forms of life to follow. In simple terms, the Earth and all that it encompasses is customized to 'fit' the human beings existence and the ability for our survival. Taking what we have just looked at we should be able to apply it to a cosmic level of existence of other intelligent species on other planets in our universe. Note, I said cosmic level, not earthly. There is a huge difference to say the least.
There are surely other intelligent life forms that exist on other planets, life forms that do not have the same needs or the physiological make-up as we do that allow them to live in totally opposite environments than we do. We certainly need oxygen to breathe, it is a staple we must have to survive and our lungs are developed accordingly to use this gas to sustain us every moment of our lives. Oxygen is what nourishes every living cell in our body. Maybe though there are other forms of life out there that do not need oxygen to live. Don't laugh; there are at this moment simple life forms here on Earth that do not use oxygen to survive at all. These organisms are known as anaerobes and are classified as anaerobic organisms and they are as much part of the chain of living organisms as we are.
Today however, if we found a planet in space that showed no traces of breathable oxygen within its atmosphere, most of us would believe automatically that life surely could not exist there. The reason again for this assumption is the relation of what we need for sustaining life must be what others would need for sustaining it, so no oxygen means absence of life, but as we can see above this statement is very untrue. Life can exist without the presence of oxygen. I wonder how many planets that we have discovered over the years have been teeming with life under non-earthly conditions that we have just skipped right over simply because it did not follow earthly paradigms? Possibly many. Life could thrive without the need for oxygen, how? Because it would be based on a pairing of living conditions with the actual creatures that were evolved to live under these principles of life, much like we are paired with lungs and the ability to breathe oxygen, so could other forms of life be created to breathe other forms of gases within the universe. It's not really that hard to understand if you just look at principles of creation and all of the millions of possibilities and combinations that must lie within our universe. Again, this goes back to understanding just how large the cosmos really is. Just like the lack of need for oxygen for other life that possibly exists out there, other parameters for life that we know of here may be exact opposites on other planets. It's almost irrefutable. Science is not limited to just what we know, it is new discoveries and the ability to understand new paradigms of thinking that make science what it is in our world today.
Humans have this belief that we 'are' and that's it. It is time to lose this heir of unjustified arrogance and to open up our minds to all of the possibilities that lie just ahead of us. We most certainly are not the center or superiors of the universe no matter how much we lie to ourselves and to others. I think we not only share this universe with other intelligent life, but that we are being visited daily be other worldly creatures. There are a select few that know the detailed accounts, I am positive. Has the UFO and alien presence been covered up and arrogantly handled in the past? Yes, it has. Has the government lied or withheld important news and information from the public as a whole regarding these issues? Yes, they have. Do many religious groups scoff at an extra-terrestrial presence and simply push it aside as demonic in nature therefore we should not look into the matter? The answer is yes, they have and continue to do so on an everyday basis.
Humans need to start thinking individually about matters that could have catastrophic effects on them in the future. Stop 'buying in' on the 'popular' answer that is fed to you by people who are in the business to deceive. The answers are there, we must be able to research, inquire, and decipher them for ourselves without all of the gray propaganda and lies that liter the information we have. It is sad to say that humans have lost their individual rights to their own beliefs and paradigms of thinking, due mainly to our own insecurities about aspects of life around us. People cling to others words for support in a time of uncertainty when they need to be making their own judgments and decisions for themselves.
At the time we come to pin point an actual planet that harbors life, whether it be by our research into the heavens or by actual contact from the inhabitors themselves, we will find out just how far off we have been in our quest for the search for intelligent life as compared to our earthly approach. I feel it is highly likely that we are going to face a civilization that not only is years in advance to us in technology, but one that will have been surviving for millennia before us on what we now consider to be pure fantasy and science fiction regarding principles of human physiology. A creature that lives and flourishes at the cosmic level of existence, a science we have yet to scratch the very surface, a turning point for all mankind.
