I understand that this is a sore subject for most, but the question will always come up at any given time. The chances of another life beyond our galaxy has always been probable. Why not question it every now and then? The real question for most nay-sayers is… don’t you even want to know?

          You see, the fact that space is infinite brings the stakes up higher. Kind of tips the scales more with the fact that there are billions and billions of galaxies much like ours. So, why couldn’t there be a life like ours somewhere out there. With that being asked, What would they even want with earth? Why would they come here? And if there is a big conspiracy, why would it be a secret?

          These questions have scrambled my brain my whole life. Ever since I could remember. Most of these were brought about, of course, by movies. When I was little girl, I begged and begged my mother to let me stay up and watch Fire In The Sky with her and my older brother. Finally, when she let me, I watched in wonder as story unfolded and these exact questions were asked.

           But it scared me. The violence that was implied in the movie was just too much for me to handle. I wondered for years why they would be so cruel. Why would beings so much more advanced from our own come to Earth just to bully us? And this is what brings doubt in most of our minds that that sort of thing even happens at all. Because the only logical explanation for that question is, they wouldn’t.

           But let’s look at the possibility. Personally I don’t believe in the big bang, as logical as it may seem, I’m a christian woman myself. But if there was a big bang, there could’ve been other planets like ours that were started the exact same way. This may have also began a life much like our own.

            I’m not trying to say they are, and I’m not saying that they’re not. I’m just saying, it’d be nice to know.
