Default Re: Your thoughts on intelegent life forms

It really depends on the definition of "intelligence". You could be "smart" but do "stupid" things like drink under pressure and get into a car crash. Knowing a lot of information does not make you infallible.

Honestly, if *any* life form is able to come to this planet, that life form is undoubtedly "intelligent" since they figured out how to arrive here in the first place. However, I haven't seen any records of that yet. But I think the best definition of intelligence to stick to here would be "the ability to profit from experience". These life forms could realize better methods of approaching situations for survival - even if they don't think like a person.
