It's OK to indulge in possibilities as an act of imagination, but arguing a PoV like this is futile until we know more.
I totally agree with you.
I just wanna prove to the OP that the paradox is not as paradoxical because we basically don't know anything.
And if intelligent life is so impossible, why do we exist?I don't belive in miracles considering that they shouldn't happen because of the age of the universe.
