I'm not a vegetarian or anything. But we're a race of animals that kills other animals, strips the organs from the body and the muscles from the bones. Enjoys the flavor of the "juices" that come from the meat ("broth"), and eat the meat after cooking it in a way that we would be horrified to be put through ourselves... I bet aliens look at us like we used to look at Indians... Uncivilized savages. If we ever started settling deeper in the stars, we'd probably get quarantined... Or maybe that's where we are now, in a quarantine. And they probably already tell "Ghost stories" about us to their children. "Don't let the humans eat me mommy!!"... I think if there is some form of "Galactic Union" and species that travel the universe, they would have to be similar to plants, and create their own food using energy, OR gather energy like a solar panel does to make their bodies function (in which case they would probably be made of light or mostly energy, like an "angel" would be). So basically I think that the fact that we EAT things at all is probably frowned on my the rest of the universe. They probably don't view us as much more intelligent than the dinosaurs...
It's possible that we "evolved"/adapted, from forest/jungle/hunter gatherer life, to become what we are now.
By planting seeds we learned to farm, by farming we learned to domesticate, etc. (And speaking, grouping, civilizing)...
So one possibility is that we are a species of monkey, from the planet Earth, that found it's way into deep consciousness...
Another possibility.
We might be aliens. We committed a "Sin", or great crime against a space traveling species, or union of species. Or they realized we're violent, and stupid.
And now have been left to our own devices (to rot) on Earth. Because of the crimes of our forefathers, and farming and talking wasn't too hard to start with our jump start from the stars.
I was watching Ancient Aliens on History channel (The one about ritual) and it made me think. First I gotta start off by, all over the planet (Native Americans, Egyptians, etc) say that we were brought here by star people. Now, the people on Ancient Aliens think that "Maybe these rituals and beliefs come from visitors." "Maybe the confusing human desire for 'more' stems from wanting them to return."
I was thinking about this, and it started to make sense.
Humans have been questioning our purpose on Earth forever. We have stories of gods, angels, demons, ghosts, aliens, and much more, and we try to pull meaning from them.
What if there isn't a magical after life that makes everything better.
What if aliens haven't been visiting and UFO sitings haven't been about a "First encounter"
What if the story of first sin, and stories similar to it, are about our ancient family leaving us here. We have been marooned on earth, because our ancestors broke some code within the space traveling humans, or within a union of alien species. We were part of something bigger, but we fucked up and it came down on us full force. They left us here, and now all we want is to go back to the stars, and we don't know why. And it's been so long we can't even understand the old messages we left for ourselves. All we can do is continue on this ball floating through space hoping one day we will understand what happened, and how to fix it. Or that one of us will guide out of this isolation on our own.
Just a thought...
