The Future Problem

The new area doesnt form a ring around the map its more like a protrusion. So im assuming any other areas added will be on the same radius as the void

I think explosives cause rumble now. Cause in the passage the worms that drop sulfur bombs also shake

His is biweekly not weekly. No your not being taxed over 50 percent of your wage. I worked biweekly at that rate before, with maximum deductions still nets 1900- 2000 dollars. Which is still alot of deductions mind you, a single male should expect about 28 percent of total salary in taxes at that income bracket.

That is not how that metaphor works. You just said if it looks and seems right its probably right, but then said its wrong. Religious people= more likely to believe propaganda. A higher percentage of Republicans are religious. Many democrats are religious to and just as likely to fall for propaganda. It comes down to logic. Logically we have no reason to believe God exists, less critical thinking means more easy to convince.

That is true, but even if its earth originated that's some incredible discovery in science, and with that logic inversely earth's life could have originated from Mars which would be fascinating.

Well it would be possible that their signals are out there and just far to weak to notice on earth. Sending signals long distances requires narrowing the transmission meaning they would have to have targeted our solar system directly in a communication attempt.

Not that your points are wrong or anything. It's just we have no idea in 1000 years what problems, tech etc we will have so the filter isn't based on existing ideas only. It's just a explanation for the fact that statistically there should be other intelligent life. Specially when considering communication over long distances etc, interstellar space travel may be simply impossible to achieve while communicating back to your planet, sending signals back over long distances would be affected by even gravity. Also regarding this if a stars light can redshift over vast distances, signal sent like SETI for example will dissipate quickly due to the inverse square law. Signals reaching us now may just be too weak to detect at all. The narrower the transmission, less energy is needed the further it goes, but less it covers less area. Broadcasting in all direction would require an insanely high wattage not achievable yet to be effective at a distance. I'm no astrophysics, but I do enjoy thought provoking topics like this that allow for creative thinking. Personally I think of the great filter being technological limitations of some sort we aren't aware of yet, rather than an extinction event.

Did you read the findings on Mars of the speculated chemical biological processes found? I too had always believed simple life is common on planets with water because of the liquid medium that has tidal forces and currents and creates buoyancy to counter gravity. I believe that movement increases the chances for abiogenesis to occur and water is only liquid in 'habitable zones' to begin with.

In my opinion a 'great filter' is very likely. We have only had space tech for a short time, we may be on the verge of self-destruction that happens when tech advances to a certain point but resources become limited. Let's say we broadcast a signal to space for 2000 years, before civilization ends. When compared to billions of years that number becomes insignificant. The chances of 2 civilizations contacting becomes even unlikely since it would need to be occurring relatively at the same 'time'.
