If there are any life beings from other planets reading this can you respond please!

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Bolo Boffin (a host of the Creative Speculation group).

I had an important question to be answered-

(And mods, if this OP isn't a "other highly-speculative topic" from the SOP than I don't know what is)


Question-

The most important thing for a society to survie is science-

As we still have billions of humans on our planet who believe in mythical gods, can you explain the evolution of your societies?

I mean, you didn't just "pop" into being right? The planet or moon you are from had it's own evolution within it's solar system. Live maybe began in the seas like earth, or maybe pools of methane or where the lava flows melted the frozen crust creating the first pools of liquid water.

So again since you just didn't "pop" into being except for gracing our presence here, explain the mystical in your society from it's earliest stages and what it took to get over it. Once your kind evolved to a point where you coud question why you are here, why the ground shakes, why flash storms happen how did pre-mature versions of you deal with it?

...what we cannot prove we simply make up.

Where there is a question without an answer, we fabricate one.

What distinguishes science from religion is that science (most of the time) is willing to correct itself.

But both largely depend upon faith, in the end.

If you want to call out someone, go to meta. OhioJoe was pretty clear about that.
