   We need alien life.   
      
   It exists. Everyone agrees that it exists. Some believe in hyper   
   advanced civilizations, others go no further than bacteria but   
   everyone agrees that somewhere out there, beyond our world lies   
   alien life.   
      
   And we need it.   
      
   We need examples of alien life.   
      
   We're humans, which means we're flawed. I mean, just look around   
   here:  Trolls, mental disorders unhinged over the next Plandemic.   
      
   We're all flawed.   
      
   And the problem with evolution is that we know how it turned out.   
   We know what we look like. We know how it ended, at least for us   
   and the animals around us. So we tend to look at us and whales   
   and humming birds and think that it was somehow inevitable. That,   
   all our ancestors HAD TO either go extinct or evolve into us.   
      
          ...and whales, and humming birds.   
      
   Let me put it this way:  Imagine you were going to do a study on   
   the sexual habits of woman, and recruited all your subjects from   
   a VD clinic.   
      
   Do you really think that the resulting picture is going to be   
   representative of the group [Woman] as a whole?   
      
   So what we need is an example of evolution OUTSIDE the earth. We   
   need to expand our view from "What has happened" to "What can   
   happen" if we are to ever understand evolution.   
      
   If you prefer, think of it as a "Control Group."   
      
   We could discuss the implications, what we might find and what   
   it might mean but, just confirming alien life would itself be   
   a HUGE discovery!
