>true but there are many reasons to rule out the concept that life exists in any meaningful distance
technically yeah, though, I am curious whether or not bacteria was present on Mars long ago, and if that is the case then wouldn't it mean that life is simply hard to cultivate? I mean, how many mass extinctions have we survived for us to get here? there is a possiblity that life may have existed BUT simply put, they got wiped out.
>primarily beings far different from us as presumably most other life in the universe would be
technically, yes, they would be different from us, but, I do believe it is that difference that can probably bridge the gap when it comes to telepathy and if a, let's say, basic human being that has only known the ability as nothing more than myth got it then wouldn't it mean that alien LIFE COULD AND WILL (Infinite possibilities and all that,) nurture it at some point?
if the existence of telepathy is ever confirmed, then it isn't exactly impossible for alien life to literally cultivate, if not evolve it.
and if telepathy IS confirmed(I mean literal telepathy, without any known physical force or limitations driving through it.), then, why can't other things?
let's say, souls? or perhaps, the mind body duality theory will be confirmed?
though, my main point is that if a regular human can get telepathy then, why can't a race use it as a specialty?
even better, WHAT IF, Telekinesis were to be confirmed? that can imply SO many things and if ever, a human gains these powers then there is a race out there that specializes in the supernatural order of psionics.
>no, that doesn't make sense, there's no real reason to assume that an extraterrestrial species would even have what we could identify as a brain,
point taken, but, at the end of the day, every living being has to have some sort of CPU-like brain to actually function because if they don't then that can pretty much open up to many more questions
