We Are Not Alone
Ancient cultures from India and Japan, to Egyptian and Inca, all trace their roots to the creator gods from the sky. They built massive expertly-crafted stone monuments to worship them. How some ancient cultures, with no written language or modern equipment, could design and build such wonders on their own, mystifies me.
In the Christian Old Testament, the Book of Genesis speaks of the time before Noah and the great flood, where angels called “The Watchers” lived among humans and imparted great knowledge and technology. A few thousand years later, the prophet Ezekiel was whisked away to heaven and returned by the celestial “wheel in the sky.”
In April 1800, William Dunbar, a scientist and correspondent of President Thomas Jefferson claimed that he and others had observed a strange disk-shaped craft near Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He sent a report to Jefferson, who forwarded it to the American Philosophical Society where it was published.
Now under mounting evidence, our Pentagon has finally released recent aerial footage of “UAPs” and admits that it has had an ongoing program studying them for more than 50 years. This seems to confirm at least some of the tens of thousands of individual sightings and experiences since the end of WWII.
In 1950, iconic nuclear physicist Enrico Fermi, posited what is now known as The Fermi Paradox. It offers potential reasons for the discrepancy between the lack of conclusive evidence of advanced extraterrestrial life and the apparently high likelihood of its existence. Most of the reason revolve around the known physical limitations of the vastness of space-time. I gravitate more towards a combination of reasons. Maybe silence is intentional with ETs opting to observe us undisturbed. Maybe civilizations tend to destroy themselves before they become interstellar.
Technological advancement brings immense power. Nuclear weapons, engineered pathogens, environmental collapse, artificial intelligence risks—these are all consequences of advanced technology. A civilization may reach a point where its destructive capacity exceeds its wisdom.
