My JMG drinking game is to take a drink every time a guest says "wow, that's actually a really good question."

Why would aliens find us? There’s so many simulations, we don’t matter

Here here 🙌🏻🙌🏻

That would be the worst ome by far, or, "live it up; they're switching off rhe simulation soon".

Better than nothing!

How about, we have arrested those aliens who molested the hillbillies and put tighter security around your solar system.

Causing a global panic. Meanwhile some alien teenager is getting scolded by his parents for sending troll transmissions to budding civilizations.

@@1190CB Now I'm totally confused! Not the first time :-)

Agreed

I think this one falls apart pretty fast when you consider the vast amounts of time that they could have had to explore and alter the universe. Either they die off very fast, or somehow /move/ elsewhere

I’ve often thought this. As time goes on even here, technologies have been minimizing. Looking for something as huge as a Dyson sphere may be completely ridiculous when you can generate all the electricity you need in the palm of your hand (hand held mobile cold fusion reactors, anyone 😂?)

U dont know his other chanels ? I was just thinking does anyone come here without watching his other 2

​@@damianp7313 yes

The universe is spread out before us like toys on Christmas morning....(just be CAREFUL with the new BB gun.....)

That is likely not possible. It is really just trying to excuse harmful ongoing colonialism on earth.

I will have some of what you're smoking 😂

Totally agree, you're so right. Only as a civilization we'll survive and probably find some other civilization one day 🙏🏻

@@veyenoord exactly! The crowning jewel of evolution is not domination, or even intelligence, it's communication and civilization that is created by it! The beings we will find out there, (or may have already found us) are probably going to be more cooperative the more advanced they are! That's a very merciful neighborhood for a species that spends so much time with war. We should be real grateful that advanced morality probably comes with advanced civilizations. And they're probably grateful that we can't get more powerful because of our ethical and societal flaws, lol

Well said, and these facts are often overlooked.

100% agreed. The problem i see in our culture is, competition is more valued than cooperation. We seem to be indoctrinated with a mindset of mistrusting your neighbor and see everonye as an enemy. This was maybe helpful in the ice age, but it is extremely dangerous in a world spanning society we live nowadays. I think we need to overcome that mindset and substitute it with something more akin to live and let live (but this only works when EVERYONE is in it... and that's the hard part...) We as humanity seem to have more interest in working against each other, instead of cooperating towards a common goal (which should need to be defined). A legitimate long term goal for humanity could be to create a world where hunger is eliminated or a certain living standard is archieved for everyone (elimination of hunger, health care for everyone, a living standard where humans don't have to risk their healt, just to feed their children and so on. Basically a humanitarian society like the Federation in Star Trek). I think Humanity needs such a big, maybe seemingly unarchieveable goal. (This would still be better than this... thing we currently have where the focus lies on big cooperations that are basically fighting for world domination and don't give a crap about the lives and freedom of the individual.)

@@nealsterling8151 well formulated. I so agree with you. It really feels good reading these kind of opinions or messages almost. Let's hope that more of us around the world agree with what you guys just wrote. Cooperate, Grow and become a Civilized Planet, 🙏🏻

Yeah. We live in a simulation… but we’re not special.

But aliens might not need money because they havent invented it, it's not something they are interested in and their society works in a different way, even if they did use money they wouldn't need ours cos it's not compatible with their civilisation, you numpty

Of course not. We can barely see anything. Most of our own galaxy is obscured. We don't have enough eyes on the sky, capacity to process data to even map out large objects in our own solar bubble. Our solar system looks like a scrap heap that we can't model the creation of. We know little even about the moon and how it came to be (the Thea impact theory doesn't really work, even though it's been widely publicized). Like in other study domains, only the people that understand the most can see how little we understand, and how much work is yet to be done.

Simulception

It is. This is John’s official clips channel.

It is.

@@EventHorizonShow ok was suspicious since I’ve seen quite a few channels get their content stolen on shorts

Get out of my cupboard

@@jamesdreads7828 no!

We do things differently haha

Cite your information source/s…

Post script. Quite specific. Would t you say.

The first thing they do Is go up your butt. That's gay bro. Everyone knows this

I disagree

What’re you even talking about?

Please don't call people colonizers flippantly, it's kind of a loaded, deregotary term. And he does mention that the whole Kardeshev scale might be based on such mistaken assumptions. That said, you do make an interesting argument. A civilization that emitted no waste heat, was radio-quiet, didn't noticeably affect it's atmosphere, didn't build large structures, etc... Such civilizations might indeed be exceedingly difficult to detect. Though I do doubt advanced (in the technological sense of the word) civilizations that keep that keep so 'quiet' would be all that common. That is, if industrialization was indeed a dead end rather than simply an ugly transitional stage that eventually gives way to sustainable equilibrium with the environment; If all civilizations that desire ever more energy are doomed, it would mean that there would be virtually no way to technologically progress far enough to be considered technology advanced. I say that because technological development only happens with civilizations that generate enough resources so that not everyone needs to be primarily concerned with survival. There is no way to generate such a surplus of resources without (at least temporarily) breaking sustainability with nature through technology. We first did so through agriculture ourselves, something that wasn't truly sustainable until the invention of crop rotation. Personally, I do think that the industrial society we live in now is a transitional stage. There is a proven, sustainable way forward: Nuclear Fusion. Yes, it's at least two decades away from being available at any sort of scale, but I do think we can bridge the gap. Perhaps not unscathed... But I think our species will make it.

Agreed… no one goes to the Father without first knowing, believing in, trusting in and relying on Yeshua…

What the hell are you on about laddy?

There is no "if" they've been here long before us and still are.
