DON'T READ THIS

Really. Don't read this.

You are still reading. STOP.

I just need to get this out of my system after watching a National Geographic channel's "Journey to the Edge of the Universe" on (you guessed it) the National Geographic channel.

But, honestly, don't read this.

We as human being, homo sapiens, are SO INCREDIBLY ARROGANT.

"We" are the intelligent ones, wandering around space and basing all these lofty 'discoveries' by our own incredibly limited experience on Earth. If the same elements that support what we consider life on Earth aren't present, then, gosh gee, there can't be life there, can there? And since we judge things by what we have observed in our limited scope of history then, wow, it must be applicable to the rest of the universe... right?

Give me a break.

I don't mind 'theories', but these are just that - a theory to explain what might possibly be happening - it's speculation.

So just don't present it as a "Hey, Kids! This Is What Is Happening Out There! It's The Truth! Can't Be Any Doubt About It!"

Geesch. Cocky.

And why are you still reading this?!?!
