Part 3/7:
The Significance of Discovering Extraterrestrial Life Resembling Humanity
A particularly intriguing point raised concerns what it would mean if humanity were to find life elsewhere in the universe that closely resembles us—biologically, culturally, or otherwise. Such a finding would be a "strong, strong argument" against the notion that evolution is purely a product of randomness.
The argument hinges on the idea that if life forms on other planets share crucial similarities with humans, this points to a deliberate pattern or system of creation rather than a chaotic, chance-driven process. It challenges the notion that evolution is entirely random, instead suggesting that there might be underlying order and purpose guiding the development of life across the cosmos.
