The Fermi Paradox is one of those things that fits right into our "Modern Materialistic Science". And, it seems truly meaningful, and something to ponder upon as a great mental exercise.
The Fermi paradox is the discrepancy between the lack of conclusive evidence of advanced extraterrestrial life and the apparently high likelihood of its existence.
Unfortunately, it suffers from fatal flaws and critical errors of being stuck in the Materialistic paradigm, so is completely meaningless.
These guys love Star Trek, so why didn't they include the Prime Directive in their pondering?
And there are lots of conspiracy theorists in this pondering, so why isn't the Roswell Cover-up considered, and conclue that it is govern-cement cover-ups? And the huge amount of abductions and UFO sightings… We have tons of evidence, but since the govern-cements don't say anything about it, it is considered "inconclusive".
There are all kinds of speculations about why, however, since we approach this question incorrectly, and our mind has been poisoned by science, we cannot easily answer it.
The many assumptions of Modern Materialistic Science
See how these assumptions, that most people take for facts (because that is the way that science is taught today) affect how we make our conclusions…
- We cannot travel faster than the speed of light
This "Theory" means that any voyage to distant planets would take years to get to the nearest ones, if we can get to the speed of light, or centuries to get to further ones going as fast as we think we can go. Which is not very fast with current rocket technology.
Do you see how this affects every thought of aliens visiting? If it takes lifetimes, then going means dying to anyone "back home", and that is quite the voyage to even start. Further, the voyagers won't be contacting those back home very well. Basically, anyone with half a brain would never leave, unless they were facing extinction or overcrowding (another assumption shoved in us by modern science)
So, what if we can easily travel much faster than light? What if most advanced races just "teleport"? What if there is a galactic-internet that you can contact anyone in real time? Doesn't that completely change how you would think about going some place?
- The first thing we would do, after years of travelling, is say hi to the civilization we encountered.
We would only think this way because we have no clue how our interactions affect things. Modern science believes that causes are in the past, and effects are in the future. Further, they think that every interaction is a one time thing.
People also say, "History repeats itself". But they never apply this to first contact thoughts. What if saying, "hi" entangled you with this planet's civilization for years to come?
If you get yourself involved in someone else's life, you affect them, they affect you. Now, you are worried about their health, and other things. This kind of entanglement happens even between interplanetary races.
A lot more happens, than just a butterfly flapping its wings.
Drake's Equation of weird assumptions
Drake's Equation is what most scientists think of when talking about alien contact / Fermi's Paradox
Drakes Equation from Wikipedia
Again, it only exists because of our assumptions, that are created from Modern Materialistic Science, and their theory, "The Big Bang". If we think other ways, than Drake's Equation just falls apart. And, isn't it funny that Drake assumes that another planet would use radio waves for communication?
How long have we used radio waves? About a hundred years? And how soon will we stop? Probably as soon as we work out Aether communications. So, in all our history (that we know of) we will use radio waves for a century and a half. That is the blink of an eye. And two civilizations on different planets having that tiny window at the same time… well, that would be some kind of destiny.
So, Drakes Equation has a big, fat ZERO at the end of it. Thus N = 0
Sadly, this makes the rest of the equation useless, but it was already useless.
This whole thing is about stars forming randomly, with planets forming around them randomly, and life forming randomly. Of course, this is all wrong. (and we will get to see it soon as we get to watch a galaxy forming)
From a spiritual and holistic point of view, no star forms without planets to give it reason to exist. No planet forms without life to give it reason to exist. We will find that the universe is a life creating machine. And so, we will find life everywhere. And it isn't random, it is very specifically formed and balanced. (like our universal forces.)
Psilocybin told McKenna that it came from across space, and exists on many planets in many solar systems. Take that assumption and apply it to Drake's Equation. Basically, the percentages on all the first numbers is 100%. All the stars have planets with life. Unfortunately, then it falls apart with the assumption that advanced races would use radio waves, which is pretty close to zero.
What a mess.
Well, space aliens are showing themselves to us more and more. Soon, within years, we will have open communications. Open meaning that almost everyone has a significant communication experience (personally or through video) with extraterrestrial aliens.
Before then, we will have more disclosure about alien visitations, alien crafts that were shot down/captured. Reverse engineered tech. Govern-cement cover-ups. Govern-cement deals with alien visitors. And many, many encounters. (As in, most military fighter pilots have had sightings of unidentified flying objects, and haven't told us)
So, i wish to help people open up to more possibilities than our Modern Materialistic Science wants us to know about, so that we will be more ready to have communications.
Further, we really need to stop trying to shoot down everything that flies into our airspace. That is not the way to welcome visitors.
