At least religious people have an excuse because their belief comes from a place of suffering, no one who thinks these sci-fi fantasy concepts are real is suffering, these beliefs come from a place of extreme comfort, nobody who believes in aliens is from the global south, how many times do liars need to stand in front of governments and say “aliens are real” for there to be some kind of explicit denouncement from atheists for these absolutely non-atheistic beliefs that get a pass because they are sci-fi. PURGE THE NERDS!

    We have found no signals or dyson spheres or anything to suggest that there is life within the visible universe.

    How good do you think our detectors are? Lol.

        It may be noticeable, it wouldn't be noticeable to a civilization of our current level of development. Even stuff as basic as "is a planet at a nearby system terrestrial or rocky" is challenging, the idea we're able to reliably say that systems even in our local group don't possess a certain structure, or dismiss coherent signals for the entire visible universe is laughable.
