Exactly. That reminds me of a good quote I love: “The universe is not only stranger than you suppose, it is stranger than you can suppose.”

In my opinion, we can live with aliens all the time without realising it.

My belief is that Darwin reigns supreme. I think aliens will not be so crazy that our head explodes but something we can imagine. They will have eyes and ears and a way to eat. The stuff that will be crazy is the beings that are past natural evolution and have started with genetic engineering and non-organic life/body parts.

That is certainly a perspective, and I’m sympathetic to it. But I hope you’re wrong and that the universe is wackier than what our current understanding allows.
