Aliens vs Human Intelligence DNA Evolution Science Alien Contact



After so many posts about superstition, greed, violence, thuggery, and abject stupidity... I need one like this as a refresher. I don't agree with all that's being said, but just to hear cogent argument rather than blithering idiocy is refreshing.

    Neil deGrasse Tyson is made out of awesome. I'm with you that I don't agree with everything he says, but I do have to appreciate the thought processes. Like, intelligence and DNA differences are two different categories. We would have to compare brain structures to see how much difference there really are (I also think he underestimates apes). But, he does have a point that an alien species would be incredibly inhuman and we should not assume similar intelligence and thought processes.

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.

Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.

Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.

As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
