After watching a repeat W5 TV show about SETA (searching for extraterrestrial life etc) I have to make a comment;

It seems to me that ‘extraterrestrial life’ is already here but not recognized as such!

No, I’m not referring to unique aquatic creatures, such as the amazing octopus as was suggested in that program, nor any other mysterious deep sea creature.

So what do I believe may be the unrecognized alien creature on earth;

wait for it…..

Indeed its us ‘humans’!

Ridiculous you say.? Well let’s objectively consider the evidence;

First; given a very long history of environmental damage to the earth humans may well be described as the ‘least compatible creature’ on earth.

Next; consider how very few of mankind actually commit to the support of all the other life-forms on earth. To the contrary, human record proves humans actually; exploit; abuse; and outright destroy; everything from flora to fauna, to animals and vegetables. A far cry from benefiting most other life forms on earth.

Finally; many humans are very discontent with their lives on earth and instead are seeking to occupy other places, such as on the planet Mars, or even much further away from earth if the opportunity presented itself.

So for those (alienated humans) so inclined, I must say; maybe that’s where you actually belong…!?
