In my opinion, the Universe has to end somewhere. I know they say it doesn't end. That it is ongoing. But how do they know? We have never made it that far before. Not even close. We all thought the earth was flat at one point. We were wrong. The possibilities of us being wrong about the size of the universe, would be pretty good in my mind.

I also believe that there is life out there of somesort. Whether it be simple 1 cell creatures, or giant complex creatures with 20 tentacles, its out there somewhere. To think of it from a scientific point of view. The chances of another planet being able to sustain life of somesort, would be pretty good. IF the universe is as big as they say, it is out there somewhere. We just havent tapped into that potential to find it.

Now if you look at this from a regilious standpoint. (I personally am not religious so it is hard for me to say) What if we weren't the first failed experiement? What if this has been tried before, and the other planet and life on that planet was forgotten about and forsaken? The chances in my opinion for that are pretty damn good.

To cut this kind of short, (I may add more later), the universe being that big leaves me bewildered. I dont hold many fears over the situation of the possibility of life on other planets or galaxies. And I definitely believe it is out there somewhere, of somesort, just waiting to be discovered. Will we see it in our lifetime? In my opinion, no we will not. But maybe our children's children will. We just have to believe, be curious, and use our imaginations.



And to touch up on evolution. We are still evolving today. It just takes a long time. A thing to look at. Back when we were "cavemen" our wisdom teeth were not required to come out. Why is this you may ask? Because our mouths were bigger, and able to hold those four extra teeth. Now thousands of years later, after our mouths shrinking a little bit, and not being able to contain our wisdom teeth... Some are not growing them. Some people have 3 wisdom teeth rather than 4... And others have only 2. This is a small sign of evolution. After a few more thousand years, we will eventually not have any wisdom teeth that require to be removed.


It was also explained to me by a priest once, that the reason the signs of evolution are there, is because it is possible God put those signs there for us to find. To stop us from finding the Garden of Eden that they say the angels are guarding. Sounds far fetched to me (the whole religion thing does to me actually), however, if it is possible that God does exist, and all those stories are true, I could see the possibility in this.

And another thing.... The bible does say that life as we know it, was created in 7 days (I think... i know man was created on day 6). But what they dont say is how long 7 days was. The possibility of a day being thousands of years, even longer, are pretty good in my opinion. Noah lived to be what, 900+ years old? You explain that to me. Because their concept of time during the writing was much different than ours. So did life just poof and show up? No of course not, that is silly. Maybe the 7 days it took to create earth was an evolving process, because of their concept of time.
