    Why did life evolve in a way wherein we get old and eventually die?

    Death is an essential part of evolution. The old generation passes away, while those members of the new generation who have advantageous trait are more likely to survive and carry forth that advantage, Eventually the whole population has the advantage, but without death, the advantage never becomes the norm and there is no progress.

    That's assuming all life everywhere is like us.  Big assumption.

    However, as Carl Sagan argued, it is very difficult to be certain whether a statement that applies to all life on Earth will turn out to apply to all life throughout the universe

    Considering that the same elements exist everywhere, and the same laws of physics do as well, it is not that unreasonable to assume evolution would work the same everywhere as well. Of course Sagan is in the business of selling books, and the message that there are wonderful worlds out there sells a lot more books than they are out there and as messed up as we are.

    We haven't BEEN here long is the point considering just how old the universe is.

    And we couldn't have been, conditions were not right for it for most of the history of the Universe. A lot had to happen after the start of the Universe before life could even start, and that took a lot of time. Those same things would have been required anywhere else.

    Compared to how old the universes are and how long man has been around, how can anyone think there isn't something else out there more advanced than we are.  We are infants still learning to walk.  Imposing our traits as children; jealousy, greed, lust, onto a group of beings that may be millions of years older than us makes no sense.  Thinking they aren't light years ahead of us technology-wise?  

    Considering everything that has to happen for intelligent life to evolve, We got here in a hurry.

    Imagine a group of humans selected for such a journey, and then imagine their descendants though multiple generations, over hundreds or even thousands of years remaining focused and committed to the mission. Normal human traits like greed, selfishness, lust, and the like, never rearing thier ugly heads to mess everything up. 

    Maybe the aliens are different, but all those ugly traits have been selected by evolution because they have helped to insure survival, and allowed for advancement. Nature is nature. The aliens are not going to be much different, and they will kill each other before they get very far across the Universe.

  6. It is entirely speculation that it is even possible to travel faster than the speed of light. Any alien race would have to.overcome this potentially insurmountable obstacle before they could come here. Even if they did, the Universe is a big place, the odds of them stumbling on us are very slim.

    Yes I called you out for posting naked pictures in a forum with a "no nudity" rule.  What is to defend?  Rule exists...but not for you apparently.  Still waiting for the "yeah I should stop doing that."

    Well to be fair both her pictures are still there and they removed mine that had a "tiny tiny" piece of nipple showing through my bathing suit so it must be ok.

    They have been edited. and I wont do it again.

    Oh and I am also sorry that I offended you with my stupid choices and my inability to measure up to your standards while in your presence.

    Why are you using this thread "how does your avatar look today" as your personal platform?

    All I did was post pictures, other people didn't like them and expressed thier dislike, I think it is perfectly reasonable when someone gets called out for being wrong, that they are allowed to defend themselves. I am more than happy to just post pictures, Why won't you just let me do that?

    So playing at being "new" here and hiding who you really are was what?

    I only wanted to hide from one person actually, lots of people start over "new" in SL so I dont see how that is such an issue. I figure even he knows now, though he is pretty stupid so maybe not, so I will have to adopt a different stratigy. Blocking someone in the forums seems to do nothing, or at least nothing when you are new. I did not hide who I was from everyone actually. there were people I told, people I trusted not to tell him. I just wanted to move on with him out of my SL, and it seemed like this was the best way, I very well may have been mistaken about that, wouldn't be the first time.

    Regardless of which pics survive, those who try to test the limits of the no nudity rule just shows how little respect they have for everyone else on this forum.

    It has never been my intention to make people think I don't respect them,

    Pictures of the bits actually showing have never survived.

    Nudes that have carefully covered or blurred the bits have survived.

    Nudes showing the butt have had mixed results.

    I know this, I did not mean to post what I did, sometimes when I get worked up my brain switches gear mid sentence. It should have been all bits covered or no bits showing, but I seem to have gotten mixed up.
