Three theories, one knowledge and one talk - the distortion of cognition
Cognitive distortion Human cognition is formed in a particular context, and sometimes we say this
"Yes", or that
"No", how to get this right or wrong, is the answer given by each of our cognitive systems, but unfortunately this system does not necessarily come from you but more from the outside world, and it is even more sad that few people have this kind of awareness; When I say that a person's cognitive system does not belong to him, many people will disagree, which is actually polite, because after all, he has thought about this problem for a while, and he has not come up and given a negative or worse; In fact, there is no need to dwell on this question, at least before the end of this article, it can have a relatively clear answer to present to you; Since we need to start with a general phenomenon that everyone can participate in or have their own opinions, you can try to ask yourself
"Do I believe in the existence of God" or can be translated
"Do you believe in a (non-material) faith", I think most people will have a clear answer to this question, and most of them will feel that the other person is stupid, and in your opinion, the answer on the other side is largely opposite to you, and this is the answer given by your cognitive system, okay, now I'm going to ask you to rethink this question, you can stop for a minute and think about it seriously, when you think it's really you
We continue after the answer we arrive at "ourselves" rather than being influenced by other factors; Okay, I guess you should have a look by now
Let's think about this question seriously, let's think about a relatively simple question first.
"Do you believe there are aliens?" This question is relatively simple, in the current stage of scientific and technological development to today's stage, the vast majority of people will give a definite answer, even if you have not thought about this question, can not give a positive answer, then make a more scientific hypothesis at the moment, this assumption is a probability-based problem
"With the earth as the target and the universe as the sample bank, what is the probability of forming an environment like the earth?", 1 in 10,000?
Then the aliens in the universe are too crowded, let's zoom in, one in a billion? That aliens are also a little too common, we're not talking about astronomy, let me jump directly to a larger magnitude, how about one in a billion, isn't this more convincing, then let's calculate and find that the number of aliens at this probability is also beyond our count, this is only based on the scope of the universe that we can know, so it is more credible to speculate from a scientific point of view that we should believe in the existence of aliens, don't think we are talking to ourselves, This is the consensus in the field of cosmology at the moment, and their exploration of extraterrestrial civilizations is based on this, it's as simple as that, science makes them choose to believe, and not all of our choices necessarily come from science, but we can basically get one apart from these
The consensus that "we prefer to believe in the existence of extraterrestrials" and its huge number (unless the universe we observe is not the real universe, which is a more complex issue, we will not talk about it for a moment), based on our current science, we have come to this view, and we have envisioned many extraterrestrial civilizations in the form and degree of their own, based on our ability to understand that some extraterrestrial civilizations are much more advanced than ours, and we have described them in various ways according to our human imagination, and even everyone has their own description, But whether these descriptions are realistic or not, it is difficult to say, we don't want to unify anything here, and we just want to remind that human imagination of its aliens is based on human beings themselves, including in terms of morphology, in terms of civilization, and in living space...... But how much is it worth scrutinizing, the answer is
"No", and completely contrary to science, can we imagine why an alien must exist in human form, is it necessary, not at all; And in terms of its time, our assumption of the degree of civilization is completely too naïve, and I largely believe that this degree of naivety is intentional at the current social stage, we can refer to ourselves, the trajectory of our own human development, you will find that human beings a thousand years ago have no way to describe our current society, that a thousand years in the concept of the universe is only equivalent to a moment, the existence of an extraterrestrial civilization, for our earth, I think it is calculated in tens of thousands of years, On this basis, we are not too naïve to imagine the form of its civilization and the form of existence, I don't think it is a difficult answer to come up with, and we have no reason at all
Thinking about extraterrestrial civilizations on the basis of "homogeneity" is a common sense based on science; Okay, let's get back to our question, can we assume the existence of an extraterrestrial civilization that is completely different from the civilization of the earth, I think we have every reason to assume this, then can his civilization exist in a different form, this is completely possible, that is to say, there can be an alien existence in a form that we cannot imagine, then we put the
"It" and in our minds
"God" to make a comparison, will you find that the difference between the two can basically be erased within all ranges, that is to say, it can be equal in existence, then this civilization's description of the universe must be difficult for our earth civilization to understand, if there is a truth in the universe then is it more likely to exist in this civilization's explanation of it, human beings do not need to be excessively inferior, if human civilization can continue, one day may also really understand these, although it takes time, but existence is all possible, However, we have no reason to believe that human beings are in the same situation, whether it is from the time of birth or the current state of civilization
"Higher level", if you have to say that, you can't say it
"Self-confidence" is a kind of thing
"Stupid", well, that's a bit of a disdain, let's go back to our original question and answer you right
"God" understanding, I think you will find the answer in your own heart, and you will also find a more authentic self than the self-righteous one in your heart
"Self";
