Other Life Forms

So, we're planning to send a signal towards a certain planet to alert any life that may be on it that we're here.

Do you think this is a good idea or a bad idea?

I think it's a good idea in the way that I find this stuff kinda exciting. But I also think it could be bad if the other life forms aren't friendly, or if they are friendly, but take our signal as some kind of attack or something.

This planet is meant to be, or assumed to be, very much life Earth. I think it'd be amazing if we were to meet alien life forms, but can you imagine how amazing and confusing it would be if we met other human life from there?

I say that because the planet is meant to be like a second Earth. So what if the life there is another lot of humans? Wouldn't that just blow your mind and make you wonder just how many planets there are with other humans on it?

I think this could be quite exciting because I could finally learn what planet i'm from because goodness knows i'm not human! Ain't that right Kitai?

You're not the only one! I'm constantly told that I'm not human. And I'm darn proud not to be!! Haha!!

Amen to that.

if life is found on other planets it will turn most religions up side down

That's true, it would

Yeah, you're right. That could be fun, but I'd imagine cause chaos all over the world. o_o;

Nah, it wouldn't. Everyone already knows that we're not alone, it wouldn't cause that much chaos

Not really. There are many religions that refuse to accept that we're not the only beings in the universe. It could cause those types of religions to plunge into chaos of some sort.

I would imagine those types of people who rely on their religion so heavly to get through life, whose religion is everything to them; to feel completely and utterly lost and possibly we could have a mass suicide thing going on.

You just never know.

Some people just don't like and/or can't handle change for various reasons.

it would most likely lead to war.

As if this world hasn't had enough wars. The next one could be the end of us all; what with all the WMDs exist.

It'll shake things up a bit that's for sure.

ofcourse we're not alone we have pets =/ sorry had to say it... urmmm na there could be something else out there... but it dont help the fact when u get the nobs that fake stuff.....

Considering the universe keeps on going and going, there MUST be other life out there. I've always had an interest in this and would love to see other life forms.
