As an example 500 years ago someone said the earth was round and was excommunicated and persecuted for his belief. Look at where we’ve come as a species in the last 10,000 years and imagine that compounding year on year. The possiblities are endless. Even Ptolemy thought there was a great land mass in the south to balance the globe. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OR OmiGod, and here we are, blessed with the ultimate joy of being lucky enough to be sentient and aware and able to comprehend, if at a low level, the incredible vastness of the Cosmos in which we occupy an infinitesimally tiny corner. Even if we're alone, what a buzz! The second one is me .. My guess is that for every million or so planets with life advanced beyond the level of bacteria on them, there are 10 with life as advanced as a crow. And maybe one as advanced as us. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaylemurph Posted June 25, 2019 #129 Share Posted June 25, 2019 So will Risky abandon his thread in shame after being proven massively wrong (again), or will he bravely ignore all the facts and prove his actual reasons for being here are to troll us all? The second option allows him to tell us how much cleverer and open-minded he is than the rest of us, so my money’s there. —Jaylemurph 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essan Posted June 26, 2019 #146 Share Posted June 26, 2019 UFOs exist. No question about that. The existence of UFOs proves we are being visited by aliens in the same way the existence of cars and trucks proves we are being visited by Autobots and Decepticons. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
