Even if these very rare conditions were fulfilled we would still have the Homeric challenge of allowing the evolution of billions of years for propitiously said beings that would reach rudiments of rationality. For these beings still in their hypothesis of exsence and millions of years of evolution we would still have similar difficulty to ours of their longevity, oxidized their genes by aerobic respiration, hydrolysis by hydrogen in their deoxyribonucleic acids. These possible beings should still develop technology to extract themselves from their orbs thousands of light years, defying the unknown to suffer the inclemencies of space and risking their existence, despite the most brilliant fictions that we have written since Jules Verne.

@cjko Just do not plant a tree with forbidden fruits, for they can grant discernment and reason

we would need for this logical effort still to predict the sensory compatibilities of the diversified natures that an infinite space would be able to elaborate over the billions of years and still imagine whether other non-carbon based life forms are viable entering our inhospitable globe and our hostile species for an entrance of other beings.

@TheGoldenMole Often we are more sensitive to the evil they do to us than to what we do to others. Again the ego covering our responsibility, but the ego is our construction

@Lurker For a Christian perspective the known (or unknown) Jesus stated that "the house of the Father has many mansions". Now if there is a creator and the universe would be his work then in this "house" would the dwellings be the infinite orbs to fill these multiverse? Again this man stated that "My Father continues to work until now, and I am also working." Now if there is a dynamic and incessant creation (the universe is expanding as our scientists and new quasars and black holes are formed from stars, "recycling energy and materials), then newly created souls are sown in various orbs not in the biological conformation we call life, but in other expressions unknown to us and inaccessible to our more advanced technological apparatuses.) Souls of human conditions would have the possibility of transmigrating to different orbs to complete their evolutionary experiences, "opening an infinite fan of possibilities "and contributing to less advanced civilizations, as might have happened with the emergence of Homo sapiens and the cultural explosion of the ancient civilizations of radiance, bringing a legacy for the exponential evolution of our terrestrial humanity, whether with Cheops, Imhotep, Hatshepsut, Epicurus , Pythagoras, Socrates, Ieshua, Julius Caesar, Siddhartha Gautama, Lao Tzu, Confucius, Mohammed, Al Jazari, Leonardo Da Vinci, Galileo Galilei, Isaac Newton, Cristovao Colombo, Robert Koch, Einstein, Marie Curie, Pestalozzi, Bonaparte and Stephen Hawking, just to name a few of the souls who contributed to move forward the terrestrial humanity.
I think of our human history as the journey of souls seeking the best, altering the world around them, even with their mistakes, but perfecting their journey through their bodily existence.

@Indrid-Cold You may disagree with what I said Indrid. It is always good to have the counterpoint and a pleasure to receive your notes.

@Lurker Lurker, vi agora que você é de Portugal, certo?

@Misotheism Skin is only skin, connective tissues with more or less melanin, according to the solar incidence. Our phenotype matters little since miscegenation is a natural process. I have European, African and Arab descent.

@Lurker Well, let's get to the idea of ​​soul. Not as an attribute or product of the electrochemical activity of the brain, but as something non-measurable. There were studies in the 1970s and 1980s with Dr. Raymond Moody on Near Death Experiences, where individuals who were diagnosed with clinical death (no organic vital signs or hypoxia) for a few moments, minutes or hours in the United States and resuscitated by defibrillators or CPR maneuvers began to report events, people or circumstances occurring within the hospital or even outside of it while their bodies were examined or tracked for the device. Some of these events were registered by the researcher and signed by surgical teams as confirmation of the hypothesis of the emancipation of some intelligent and independent principle of the body that had access to information and events unrelated to emergency rooms and surgical centers. Beyond it is an interesting book by Dr. Ian Stevenson, who traveled the world between 1960 and 1980 to gather testimony and interviews of children with possible evidence of the phenomenon of reincarnation: 20 Suggestive Cases of Reincarnation (about 400 pages).

@cjko Spontaneity and sympathy are too important to a friendship

@Lurker Oh of course friend!

@cjko Yes, the human mind is dynamic and always on the move, though many cling to just one way of thinking. There must be critical moments for most people to change their way of thinking and acting, unfortunately through disappointment, frustration and even suffering, which can make them more flexible or harden. The transformation of people is a process of inner reformation.

@Lurker By the Ingrid's words now I'm feeling myself a old man :older_man:

@Karina-Kara There are researchers who understand that consuming arthropods is an unparalleled source of protein, and there are several types of larvae with higher levels of protein in pork, rich in HDL, which includes the cockroach itself (not the one you find on your house or your deposit). Several countries in Africa and Southwest Asia, including China regularly consume these protein sources, regardless of the number of legs they have (including caterpillars, spiders and scorpions).

@Wolfie_11 And that's great! What would the world be without the skeptics? It is necessary that there be doubt and this enriches the human experience.

@Кara thanks by your compliments Karina. Im Very pleased by your words. A big hug!!!

@reviewer_1 I agree with you Reviewer. Interesting that there is a Christian concept similar to this.
"Lay not up for yourselves other treasures in the earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in to steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust can not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal ".
I like the convergence of wisdom among the diverse peoples of the world and what their masters already taught, regardless of the idea of religion.

@MAUI This trinity is not formed in our minds. We tend to overestimate one over the other.

@Karina-Kara Life and its diversities thrive in the most extraordinary ways. From the volcanic chimneys where bacteria perform chemosynthesis, abyssal fish with their chemiluminescence up to the thermophilic bacteria living in geisers. We also have the fantastic tardigrade, able to live without oxygen and even outside our sphere, without gravity with experiments carried out by NASA. Our biosphere is indeed fascinating and we are the most fragile creatures before the earth's crust.
