The aliens are coming!

Lol, only alien life will likely be microorganisms or plant life.

I think this is most likely but we can’t know for sure unless earth somehow manages to map the universe but that’s highly unlikely. The idea that everything came from nothing doesn’t make sense, there is usually a cause and effect but that must begin somewhere? Why were these particular events made in such a way to give birth to an entire existence? Unless of course we are just a naturally occurring phenomenon who is never meant to question such things.

The idea that something can come from nothing is well-established. The idea that everything came from nothing just takes a bit more imagination.

I agree with all that you say here, in principle......but most especially about not holding one's breath.....I would have gone blue and become "a deceased parrot" a good few decades ago if I had tried that!

Remaining "open".....is a "good call" though.  As an old bloke, I have become "definite" and "absolute" in my belief/understanding  that "absolutes" and "definites" are a mugs game!  Welcome to my autistic reality!
