      Well, we're destroying our planet and slowly reducing its potential attractiveness to species looking for resources, and if we're truly that primitive to an advanced race, they may have a passing interest in observing us like we do with other species on our planet, but probably lack enough interest to expend the effort to conquer us.

A few well placed antimatter bombs and humanity would crumble. 90% of humanity lives on the ocean shoreline or close to it. 10 kg antimatter bombs in the ocean a hundred miles offshore and the ensuing tsunamis would take care of most human life on earth. The rest are just clean up

    The chances of us being alone in the universe is very low but there is an easy explanation that we haven't found them. We are too far out. Remember we're on the outer part of one of the arms. We may not see them because we're too far away. Are you more likely to pass a town in the middle of nowhere or more likely to pass a city? Same thing.

      It would be great if some company did a worldwide survey. The very act of such a survey might raise eyebrows as to why it was being conducted at this time.
      And, what people say on a survey might be very different from what they would actually do in real life.

    The scariest thing for me is that it may be true that we are alone. I keep hoping and hoping there is something more to this world, that's why I watch a lot of conspiracy videos but it just dissappointing. I am not that smart but some of the theories just seem stupid and too biased. With time quickly passes, I think we are perhaps alone. No gods, no extraterrestrial, no nothing... This is one of those things we may have to prepare ourselves if its true. We are just that one thing that just exist like all other element. Pretty sad.

      You are much smarter than you think! You have a natural gift for existentialism, which is quite rare! You have an ability to discern and make up your own mind, even rarer!! We are not alone, because we are made from stardust, and all energy is infinite. We may take other forms, but the glowing spark of our individualistic stamp is ours, always. Whether you call it soul or spirit, love, or reincarnation, there is a constant flow of mystery in all of us. I believe that each one of us has the choice to change the world for better, what powerful beings we are. Our warmth and compassion, joy and light can inhabit those around us into infinity! As we pass from one life to another, I believe we understand more, become more. Whatever you believe in, it is always healing to forge bonds of respect and compassion with all those you come into contact with. You will feel less alone. You should write poetry and music, it is your path.

    I, myself, think that aliens might be perplexed by the fact that we have what many call a spirit. And maybe, that spirit goes to a different dimension making the animal human (or part of it) a multidimensional entity.

      "The fact"? I didn't realize that a "spirit" had been recognized or measured by science.
      Same goes with multiple dimensions. (outside of unproven mathematical theory)
      But hey, that is if we are actually talking "facts".

    Book recommendations: Childhood's End by Arthur C Clarke, as well as 2001. Carl Sagan's Contact. The Pliocene Epoch trilogy by Julian May. (Those have aliens, prehistory, time travel, and psychic abilities!) And of course, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. There are many more. Asimov's I ,Robot and the Bicentennial Man, just a few classics that come to mind.
