Forget for a minute you ever saw an episode of Star Trek, watched a Star Wars movie or any other form of popular mass culture portraying aliens from other planets...
The whole idea of there being more intelligent and more advanced civilizations out there is space is completely groundless when you look objectively and unemotionally at the evidence. Not so much a repeating blip on a radio telescope to indicate other civilizations out there.
Even less evidence of aliens having visited earth in spacecraft. None actually. So why do hundreds of millions of people believe this to be real? One answer: Mass media entertainment being confused with reality. How many people who believe David Icke's Reptilians theory saw the TV mini-series V when they were kids? Would they be so accepting of Reptilians in human skin if the TV show V never passed through their consciouness during their formative years?
I am starting to seriously consider that we are truly alone in the universe. Certainly there is no good evidence of any value we can point to other than there are lots of stars out there.
But so what? There is lots of ocean on this planet and no humanoid or other-style higher intelligence developed there - even though the oceans are actually more able to evolve multi-celled organisms due to the higher concentrations of raw materials, energy and elements within the oceans. Yet we on land, are the only ones who managed it. And when we turn to look and listen to the cosmos there is nothing but total silence. Half a century of listening to nothing which may suggest other civilisations on other planets.
Maybe this whole thing of the "space brothers coming to save us" is just another religious movement? Are people who claim to channel aliens anymore credible than storefront preachers who claim God speaks directly to them?
This "exclusive" hotline to the stars or heaven has been looked upon with extreme caution by both indigenous and even mainstream religious folks. Mainly because every single indigenous culture warns us that channeling is messages derived from "demonic" (I have no idea what that is myself) entities with a deep hated of humans. They voices love to deceive and play tricks - telling people they are everything from the Archangel Michael to Galactic Brothers to God himself.
The people who claim these channeling powers then develop a kind of God complex themselves. They glory and revel in their unquestioning followers who hang onto their every word - waiting for the next channel.
It becomes a kind of personal and social stagnant negative feedback loop where the chaneller can't walk away from this special, evangelical image they have of themselves - while the people who wait for the latest message lose track of their own personal responsibility and hand their personal destiny over to the voices.
Yet, if you look at the historic records and even the traditions of native wisdom, the legacy and warnigns they give us are loud and clear. The voices ALWAYS lie, they play games and they feed the "truth" the listeners long for.
The Islamic world called them the Djinn, the Gnostics called them the Archons and the Celtic people's called them the Pooka. Regardless of the culture, the message from every corner of the world is the same: channeling is a bullshit hotline to the 'demon world' - and that's all you ever get. Bullshit.
Dangerous bullshit - even if the channeller is really hearing voices and being genuine. In a scientific context it is called schizophrenia - the voices in the head. No good can come of it or ever has. All have been lied to by the voices and yet today - more than ever - many people accept ever utterance as the truth of higher entites giving them valuable advice through channellers who just expect unconditionally devotion and tragically, often get it.
Be careful. The ancients knew what they were talking about. They never looked to the stars for answers. They look within their own souls.
Pointing to a billion stars in the sky is proof of nothing other than there are a billion stars in the sky. The problems and struggles we face are earthly one. Let's worry about this first. I am sure the space brothers and sisters if they exist at all have their own shit to deal with and wouldn't be bothered with us and our problems down here.
Just think about it.
