Well if they call it bullshit we can set up fedora trade routes
What would they use to refute themselves since there is no religion on the planet that even mentions the possibility of extraterrestrial life?

If I'm not mistaken the Vedic religions leave the possibility open.

1712
I'm pretty sure Roman Catholicism is open to the idea of extraterrestrials, not sure how they justify the complete absence of the idea from the Bible though. Whereas you've got certain protestant sects(the crazier ones) that would swear up and down they're actually demons.

If the aliens said it was bullshit some would probably just treat them as lost souls, like they do the rest of us that don't buy it.

Not as low as spamming shit threads.

And having one day off doesn't make you a lurker.
You should become a comedian with those awesome remarks!
They weren't supposed to be funny.
When people see you as a clown, most things you say are taken as jokes because they sound so brainless and without a purpose that it must be a joke.

I can't be a sentient nano cloud entity, why even go on living?
Look, in this scenario this is what Science can do for you. It's not like you were a nano cloud before the accident, is it? So stop acting spoilt and become alan rickman.
tbh I'd pick gene wilder

How is it our natural advantage if what we create is artificial?


Wha? Humanity isn't exempt from nature. Everything we do is 'natural' in that sense.

So the internet is considered natural to you? I'm sorry but the way I see it, eating, shiting, pissing, fucking, and sleeping are what I consider natural.
Yes because it is a product of this universe. It didn't just pop into existence with no external influence. The internet wouldn't exist if nature didn't allow us to exist as a part of it and thus create the internet.

Simply because we have a higher intelligence does not mean we are separate from nature. We still exist and act in this universe according to conditioning, and the internet is just another product of that.

But how is the internet natural exactly? Yes humans are responsible for it's creation, but think of it this way. How is software itself considered natural?

Right now all this here is software. There is no physical media involved. I can't touch the threads with my hands or touch any of the words on screen. I can touch the screen but that doesn't count.
It's natural to me because anything that exists as a part of this system (that being our universe) is a part of nature. You can't touch emotions or ideas either but they're just as natural.

For me, nature isn't any specific part of reality, it IS reality.

Hmmm. I suppose you have a valid point, so your saying our own manufactured reality with time and internet is part of nature?

And, er, sorry Deci, but they're absolutely right when they say humanity's niche is its ability to make tool. It's how we even out (and more so) the physical playing field with other predators.

But think about it. What if we didn't have this ability to create tools? How would you expect the human race to survive let alone adapt?
That's a terrible hypothetical...

How? Think of the possible outcomes. Everything in this universe is dictated by probability. That means there was a chance where humanity could have not adapted or not have been smart enough to have this ability to think ahead of other animals.
then it wouldn't have been humanity as we know it.

The fact remains that humans do have that ability.

Well, I suppose that's true. But what if only ONE human on earth survives. Then what?
he either makes the best of his situation or kills himself due to despair

What if the last human being on earth is female?
change my pronouns

what if the last person on earth is an attack chopper?

An attack chopper is an inanimate object.

Silly human.
you fucking bigot
