Give us another million years.

It’ll be a great breakthrough when  intelligent life is found throughout the cosmos. On other earth-like planets. Imagine that. Life abounding. All over. Limitless life. Even life that goes beyond mere human dimensions. Our Mother Earth. Harboring only one of millions, maybe even billions of civilizations. Wow! We aren’t alone. I like the thought. The concept.  Makes me wonder how that will change our thinking. About where we earthlings fit into the grand scheme. Certainly, it’s gonna change our approach to religion. To the spiritual. I’m beginning to think about it. The wonder of it all. Will we still be thinking of a single creator? A so-called god? And those other civilizations? Do they have their acts together better than us?  And will we ever be able to travel great light year distances? Back and forth. And will we live in peace and harmony? Or will there be planetary wars?  One planet trying to dominate another.   Could be, it’s all happening now. Without our knowledge. Because we are still living in the galactic Dark Ages. We are ignored. Left out.  Earthlings. Still in our primitive stage. Wait. Give us another million years. To catch up to the more advanced civilizations. –Jim Broede
