Mumbling Maybe-s
There was a YouTube comment I saw that was saying basically, "Thumbs up if you think life would be better if it was an anime!" It had about five thumbs up (which is quite a bit!), and the comment was submitted about a day ago. Well, who's to say it's not like one? Or, at least be surely, definitely accurate and say it's not. I mean, what about all the supporting characters that never get a name? Maybe we're those. Or, maybe someone you know or you can be the main character, but you just haven't had the event that is the first chapter happen to you yet.
I've been wondering along those lines for a while. And, in these following paragraphs, I seriously am sorry if I insult anyone. These are just thoughts that have been bothering me for a while.
I don't understand how people can think that humans are the only 'intelligent' life in the universe. How would we find it, anyway, if we can't even communicate too successfully with chimpanzees, who are 98% the same as us? Also, about the 'other life' out there idea, how can people also think that Earth is the only planet that contains life in the universe? Whatever the chances are, there's got to be, like, at least ten times that amount with just how many stars/suns there are.
Furthermore, how do people insist evolution doesn't happen or hasn't or is an anti-religious idea? That human beings are the top of the evolutionary 'chain' or 'pyramid'? That we're going to last forever as a species? That nearly every resource in the world needs to be used for our own wants when we're merely a single species?
I apologize again, except this time for all the rhetorical questions I've just posted. I shouldn't be piling this stuff onto anyone's friend page, but I've just wanted to get this out somewhere for quite a while, and I'm so uncreative as to not know where else to post this.
(And, why is it called a rhetorical question when rhetorical is almost like the word 'retort'?)
