[meteorite-list] Alien Contact Predicted

[Phil Whitmer]

Kirk,

We all know the Universe is really, really big. Maybe even infinite, maybe 
infinite plus one, maybe even double dog infinite. What does that have to do 
with abiogenisis? Why don't you tell me how life got started here on Earth, 
(that would be real science), then we'll move on to whether or not aliens 
exist. (That would be idle speculation).

Let's use this line of reasoning:  the oceans are really really big, not 
infinite, but really big.  At the bottom of the Marianas Trench lives a 
society of mermaids, mermen and sea serpents. How do I know this? Because 
the oceans are really big!  The Earth is also really big, so somewhere on 
the vast Tibetan Plateau lives:  Bigfoot! Size doesn't matter, it's not a 
valid argument.  Beliefs without evidence can take you anywhere you want to 
go.  Ghosts? Doppelgangers, why not?
