So it is a ridiculous idea that there may have been someone around before us that could have reached the levels of scientific knowledge that we have ?

Why is that ridiculous ?

From what I know of the way things work, they just keep going round and round. The big bang is based on the idea that the whole thing implodes and the explodes and then implodes and then explodes over and over.

Evolution is based on the random chance mutation surviving because it happpens to hit at a time when conditions are ripe for it to survive and then it mates and produces more who reproduce and produce random chance mutations etc.. Just over and over and over.

A big fucking circle. All around us everything is circles circles circles, the seasons, the orbiting around the sun thing, the moon orbiting around the earth.

All circles.

So why is it ridiculous to think that we might not be the first as we hope we won't be the last ? Why we would be straight out linear when everything around us is circles ?
