So, looking at these creatures makes one pause to think about what one considers "normal" or the accepted idea of that is beauty. Now in this world most of us would say that in the top picture those are pretty strange looking guys(or maybe gals, who knows). However, in the second picture they may look at that and wonder what strange being that was standing next to their good looking stud.
Same way we look at truth. It doesn't make any one "truth" anymore right. It just varies from point of view and who you ask. We think that we are the more moral or ethical and our standard is the truth. Yet, when looked at from an others point of view we come across as the evil ones.
Take, for example, the Crusaders who massacred in the name of Christianity. A miscarriage of Christ's message. Isn't it as true with the extremists in the Islamic world? They are mostly very good God fearing in the true sense of Islam. Yet, there again are those who take the message and shape it to meet their ideals of truth. Both distortions for their own aggrandizing, causing them to become blinded by their own extreme ideals.
Well, I'm ready for the aliens from space. I'm not judging them or telling them they're all wrong. Heck, those guys may just start looking pretty good after a while.
