RE: How will the overwhelming discovery of extraterrestrial life affect our lives and beliefs?

Hello @jadams2k18
Such an intriguing post..truly enjoyed reading your article.

To be honest, I believe in rationalism more than faith alone...Am not saying, there's no God or anything..but to believe in it, I need to have some legitimate proofs or, at least some rational explanations.

I mean.., why not?

On one hand, we (humans) claim to be the smartest of all the life forms exists and on the other hand, we tend to believe in something, which we can't see at all or even proof it's existence.

Moreover, the discovery of extraterrestrials is not just an idle fantasy..Many philosophers and scientists all over the world prooved their existence or at least provided with some analytical explanations regarding their existence.

Stephen Hawking once said,
"The idea that we are alone in the universe seems to me completely implausible and arrogant," he said.

"Considering the number of planets and stars that we know exist, it's extremely unlikely that we are the only form of evolved life."

And I guess, may be, this discovery may temper our religious beliefs in a good way...
