A Parallel Earth, Do We Learn or Do We Destroy

Hi wolfie, Another good discussion, your brain must be working overtime today. In all seriousness, I do like the topic very much. I'm not sure that we would learn from it as we have had some great and wise people try to teach us down through the centuries, and all we wanted to do was get rid of them. In the last century, we had Mahatma Gandhi proving that non violence can work, but most people still don't believe it. I feel that there are some highly evolved beings on other planets, but at the same time there may be others who are behind us. If any are watching us, it would certainly be those who are far ahead of us. I feel that we would want to destroy the new civilization instead of learning from them, just as we killed all those who tried to show us a better way. There may be more people who understand today than there was a few thousand years ago, but our evolution as spiritual beings has been very slow, and that is where evolution really matters. Blessings.

Its a lovely idea, I certainly would want to learn from it, in fact if there was a place like that then I would have my bags packed and be gone to it in a nanosecond! But as others have said once people got to know about it then they would have to destroy it, or they would soon fill it full of hate and destruction because we seem to just be intent on destroying anything that is good. Peace is just something that I can never see happening.

There are parallel worlds, we just cannot see them. I believe that there are other world out there that are similar to ours. We have not seen these worlds yet, but we soon will.

Oh boy. Wolfie, Why do you always have such mind-taxing questions? Many of my brain cells either die when I read your discussions or I pretend they probably fissioned and sort of reproduced so I became smarter as a result (so I probably got to thank you for it ). I do believe in the possibilities of parallel worlds. Many of them. Countless. For each branch in possible action of every "sentient" cell of every thing, I think a separate universe will be generated. And so, because all possibilities will be manifested in one universe or another, there is likely one that is purely Utopian. Peace, no hunger, no poverty, etc. I don't think we will ever be able to see it though. That might break the barrier and cause the 2 universes to either collide destructively or merge. But if you are talking about just another species on another planet in this universe (you may recall Earth is just one puny planet revolving around a mediocre star - our sun - that is on one arm of our spiral galaxy and that there are countless observable galaxies - so if you throw in the unobservable, the number would be more - in our universe), that is very possible. I do believe there are "aliens", probably many entire species of them. Don't ask why we have not encountered anyone... I think we are either probably discovered and are monitored or ignored a for reason such as why a passerby ignores an ant crawling along a public road, or the colonization process of others has not reached us yet. After all, the universe is continuously expanding and there is so much space. If we were to one day have contact with an advanced civilization, we might quite possibly learn from them to be better Earthlings. Cheers!

Hi wolfie, good question you asked. But I think we can do an easier mental experiment than with parallel Paradise-like Earth. Just lets look around us. We know many people and these people are different. Some of them are good, nice to communicate, peacefulm friendly etc. And they never make "small wars" between each other. Lets put these people together an we get "Paradise-like" environment. You know when you are spending nice time with friends the "war index" is very low or absent. And then, by unfortune, we know different type of people. Should I describe it?.. Clear, it seems to be. And imagine now a company of this second type of people observing a copmany of first type. They see, that people in the first group are friendly, well-off, peaceful, loving themself and others, generous, loving life etc. What way of communication the second group will choose, especially if first group has something nice "to share" (in your example it can be some knowledge and technologies, in mine - some goods or just money). Any ideas?... Well, the experiment I describe is simplified of course, but for my opinion it gives not an optimistic forecast of what will happen when we face parallel world people or alients... P.S. If I knew where such a peasful place is, I would move there for living with my family :-)
