Itās a really interesting idea. The movie Prometheus touches on these theories. Seems a lot more plausible than all religions š
If we can manipulate genetics and create new organisms, itās not too far-fetched to think that a more advanced civilization might have done something similar with humanity. š¤
Agreed. And think of how easily they could trick / manipulate / guide humans if that were the case.
It stands to reason that they could shape our beliefs and values to align with their agendas.
Absolutely. Could make a great sci-fi series. Great dramas a-plenty like a schism in the alien society who āmanagesā humanity and subsequent infighting on how to best do this.
There could be rogue factions, one with empathy for humanity. Another contempt. Bitcoin could have been an unauthorized upgrade covertly planted by the party with empathy.
I'm liking this plot already. Let's make a movie :)
