Do ALIENS hold the key to why we have sex? Richard Dawkins says ET could reveal why animals use it to reproduce - and even the origins of life - Spiritual Forum - Ashtar Command

Richard Dawkins revealed theories on alien life exclusively to MailOnlineHe explained the ways in which it might be different, and similar to our ownDawkins said the existence of sex is 'problematic' and he does not expect all aliens to use it to reproduceHe also believes aliens may 'grope in the dark' with religion like humansAnd that some evolutionary principles, according to Darwinism, may be commonplace in the universeOn Earth, sex is essential for many lifeforms to survive - but elsewhere in the universe it might not even exist.In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Richard Dawkins explained how the need for us to have sex is one of the great unanswered questions of evolution.He added the need for two genders to reproduce is 'problematic' and finding alien life could be key to discovering why we have male and females, instead of a range of genders.'Does there have to be sex in an alien world? I think probably not,' Mr Dawkins explained. 'It's not at all clear what sex is doing anyway. It's problematic enough.'I wouldn't put my shirt on there being sex [in an alien world]. If there is sex, why just two sexes? Why not three or four?'He continued: 'One outstandingly unanswered question [about evolution] is what's sex for?'Sex would be unlikely to be 'common between different life forms,' but discovering alien life could 'teach us about evolutionary principles,' he added.ARE WE ALONE IN THE UNIVERSE?Dawkins told MailOnline he wants biologists to start to consider what other life might be like in the the likely event we discover we are not alone.'The number of stars in current estimates is 10 to the power of 22, and it looks as though most of them have planets, so it's feasible to say the number of planets is in excess of 10 to the power of 22,' he said.'It would seem to be rash to predict we're the only life form in the entire universe.'On the other hand if there was only one planet that has life then it has to be this one, because here we are.'The alternative is to say yes, we are alone. If you want to believe that then the origin of life on this planet has to be a quite staggeringly improbable event.''So we're left with the rather paradoxical result that people who are trying to work out how life originated on this planet are totally wasting their time, because the theory we're seeking is not a plausible theory, it's an exceedingly implausible theory.'Dawkins explained that if there is a plausible theory for the origin of life - one that has yet to be put forward - then there's going to be 'lots and lots' of life in the universe.'I think there's lots of life in the universe, but that's just a hunch. It may still be very rare; it may be so rare that there are only a billion of them.'If there are only a billion life forms then they will probably be so spaced out from each other that they'll never know each other and never come in contact.'If they do come in contact, if we ever come in contact, it will almost certainly be by radio than by actually bodily meeting.And he believes that 'the fact we do see sex so ubiquitously [on Earth] is very telling.'We do see no sex as well, asexuality does happen, so it's not absolutely essential.'If you look at the distribution in the taxonomic tree of life, what you see is that asexual reproduction seems to crop up.'With one exception, there is no major branch of animal - clade - all members of which produce asexually.'The fact that it's sporadic, that it crops up here, here and here but not in major clades, suggests that when it does crop up it may flourish for a short while of evolution, but then it goes extinct.'That could be a very telling fact.'In Dawkins' talk at the Starmus festival yesterday he spoke on alien taxonomy, and what we might expect aliens to look like.Dawkins pondered whether the way certain animals have evolved on Earth has been random, or followed a path that would be similar for any alien life forms.In particular, he discussed how organs such as eyes, on a world where light was abundant, would be very likely to evolve in a similar way.And even things such as religion, as society develops, would be shared by humans and an intelligent extraterrestrial race.On whether aliens might have their own religions Dawkins said: 'I think it wouldn't be totally unsurprising.After all, he said, religion has arisen in every single civilisation that anthropologists have ever looked at that.'I suppose it's plausible that any alien life form which is on the way to developing the sort of technology that's capable of reaching us would be likely to go through a preliminary phase of uncertain groping in the dark,' he added.'Before they hit upon truths like Newton's laws, which are universal, and Einstein's theory of gravitation, which is also universal, they might well go through a phase of groping in the dark.'It's something we might recognise as religion.'Dawkins said he wants biologists to start to consider what other life might be like in the event we discover we are not alone - which he claims is increasingly unlikely.READ MORE PLUS SEE PHOTOS @ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2766475/Do-ALIENS-hold-key-sex-Richard-Dawkins-says-ET-reveal-animals-use-reproduce-origins-life.html

This is interesting.... According to the Vedas we are in Kali Yuga where our consciousness has fallen so low that we need sex to reproduce. In the Satyia Yuga one thought and it materialised then we also had non contact energy transference between two couples to produce a baby so highly advanced Extraterristrial do not need the sex act but can do without.
On Earth they say the most pleasurable thing the humans have is Sex but their are probably a lot more that can give is more pleasure then Sex.
One new Hare Krishna devotee asked a Spiritual Master that is joining the Hare Krishna movement and following the principles more pleasurable that sex and the spiritual master said sure just become a pure devotee of Krishna and you will get more pleasure and happiness. The Hare Krishnas do not believe in sex outside marriage and believe sex is only for reproduction and their sex act involves meditation and chanting so the baby produced is Krishna Consciousness baby already spiritually advanced then non krishna devotees.

"Do ALIENS hold the key to why we have sex?"

According to shaman Credo Mutwa, they do.

This, because it's them who split man in two and turned her from an androgenous masterpiece into an incomplete and by biology easily distracted and also easily polarized being. ;)

  Well, the Christians don't believe in sex outside of marriage, but does that make any difference?
