==== Colonization is not the cosmic norm ==== In response to Tipler's idea of self-replicating probes, Stephen Jay Gould wrote, "I must confess that I simply don't know how to react to such arguments. I have enough trouble predicting the plans and reactions of the people closest to me. I am usually baffled by the thoughts and accomplishments of humans in different cultures. I'll be damned if I can state with certainty what some extraterrestrial source of intelligence might do."<ref name="Beyond Fermi's Paradox II, Stephen Jay Gould quote, April 2015">[https://www.universetoday.com/tag/carl-sagan/ Beyond “Fermi’s Paradox” II: Questioning the Hart-Tipler Conjecture] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190322205106/https://www.universetoday.com/tag/carl-sagan/ |date=March 22, 2019 }} (middle of page), ''Universe Today'', April 8, 2015.</ref><ref name="If the Universe Is Teeming . . . 75 Solutions, Stephen Webb, 2015">''If the Universe Is Teeming...'', Stephen Webb, [https://books.google.com/books?id=Y111CQAAQBAJ&pg=PA28 p. 28].</ref>
