You would find a way to communicate with them.

You would then, within 3 exchanges of messages, tell them 
they are maliciously dishonest, liars, really stoopid, and prolly
worked in concert with the DNC to prevent Hillary from getting
the nomination she deserved because, well, because she just did.  

And so it goes.

These are good points.  MMY would certainly agree that there is consciousness 
in every particle of atom throughout the universe and the multiverse.  
Sentience could certainly appear anywhere given the billions of galaxies 
throughout the universe.

Human sentience in primates could have developed as part of the natural process 
of evolution.  However, there are some people, like Michael Cremo, who believe 
that humans devolved from the spirit world into this physical world.

Humans can be considered biological machines.  But you would have to account 
for human consciousness.  Where did it come from?

Well, maybe no "humans" but why does sentient life have to be human or 
even be composed of matter visible in our narrow visual range?   I go 
with the universe behaving more like fractals and as such our species 
would be replicated throughout the universe along with other intelligent

With an alignment of planets like that, the location of the viewer must be 
outside the planet Earth.  As such, the environment must be unlike Earth and no 
humans could possibly live there.  I would venture to guess that this viewpoint 
could only be taken by a space probe.

This idea would be about right.  If they had different planets nearby, those 
would be affecting their brains and physiology in different ways.  As such, 
they would have different significators for their emotional and physical traits.

I'd venture a guess that any civilization of sentient
beings, assuming their planet had a night and that they
were able to see the night sky clearly, would in its

This is a good question.  I believe the planets would have different 
perspectives and effects when on Mars.  From Mars, you would not see the Moon 
of Earth on the horizon.  Instead, you would see and be affected by the Moons 
of Mars, Phobos and Deimos.  In addition, you would see and be affected by the 
presence of the planet Earth.

In speculating, I would think that life would be drastically different when 
you're located in another galaxy, star system and planet.  If the system can 
sustain human life, then the environment must be similar to that of earth.  
That means the planet must have similar ingredients as the earth and it must be 
located in a habitable zone from the host star.  Otherwise, humans cannot live 
there.

It is possible the ancients were using the planets as time keepers for 
macro cycles in nature and society.  Some of these cycles come close to 
the timing of planetary returns.  The Sun and Moon however obviously do 
exact influence on our environment and even human behavior.  On another 
planet one would have to chronicle such effects and develop a new system 
but if you already understand macro cycle effects it might not be 
necessary.  But then on another planet the macro cycles might even be 
different.  They might be just a harmonic of the effects of the planet's 
"Sun" and any moons.

If you run two planetary calculation engines (this is astronomy not 
astrology), one where perturbations are calculated and the other without 
you'll find that dates where conjunctions occur to be the most off in 
position for the set that perturbation terms are not applied.

Suppose you were *on* Mars. What would it look like and what would be the 
significance from that viewpoint? I spilled two Cheerios on the floor. They are 
lying there eight inches apart. From across the room they look like they are in 
conjunction, but to an ant between them, they are far, far apart.

Suppose you were transported to another galaxy, to another planet in a double 
star system with four planets around one of the stars, and you are on the outer 
one. You woke up there at dusk and looked at the sky. All the stars and planets 
are completely different than on Earth. How would you create a system of
