I firmly believe in life on other planets, but as to Aliens seeding life on earth or being our creators, I am left with that age old unanswered question; Who created the aliens?
Maybe we did! Humans created them. We created them and they, in turn, created us. Sort of like the inverse of the "Grandfather paradox" (or the Sarah Connor paradox as I prefer to call it ).
Alternatively, it's sort of like that nonsense with the black hole in "Interstellar"
Spoiler:
In which they travel across the galaxy through a wormhole following a message of unknown origins, but it turns out in the end that it was actually them who sent the message by manipulating space-time, possibly with the aid of an advanced future civilization of humans on the other side of the wormhole, that they actually created themselves.
But it actually makes no sense at all and for me ruined what was shaping up to be an excellent film

Some theoretical physicists pondering lately, in regards to new discoveries in quantum mechanics, whether or not there actually was any "beginning" at all, and in fact whether the term "beginning" in terms of the universe actually even has meaning. We already know that "time" isn't exactly what it seems to be, and the idea of a necessary "beginning" or "cause" is based entirely on a linear understanding of time.
