And yet the greatest percentage of lifeforms were put unreachably
distant in time,
sometimes billions of years just here on earth. How fucked up is
that?!?

google's validation string to reply was "emeth", how appropriate.

Do you also believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows?
Why should we care about your unsopported assertions of your
uneducated beliefs?

Are you campaigning for Kook Of The Month? If so, "JacobSmith" has
the lead over you by a wide margin.

Please prove your point. I am dealing in fact.

How is space travel pointless speculation?
This is speculation for a big point I say.
No. You are simply being pety.
As they say "Pearls before swine."

You did. I was referring to Mars and the moon, though. You were
talking about deep space travel.

It's a possibility. You can't say for sure it will happen, just as I
can't say for sure it won't. Neither of us can see the future. One
possibility for us not being able to do it is that we, as a species,
may be extinct by then. We may not be. Again, meaningless speculation.
Ask the question "will we be here 10 million years from now?" and the
answer is "maybe, maybe not; it doesn't matter."

How insanely hypocritical can you be? You challenge me to tell you how
in the distant future we won't be able to travel to deep space, and
how I can be sure. I CAN'T be sure, it's 10 million years from now!
But then you turn around and say that we ARE going to do it ten
million years from now, as if you can somehow see the future, and not
only are you telling me I can't prove that we won't but you go so far
as to call it a *fact*!

No. It is not a fact. It is a possibility. And it *does not matter*
whether we do or do not. It has absolutely no bearing on anything in
the world today. The speculation is meaningless.

I'm done with this thread. I don't know what it is that's wrong with
your brain, but I hope it gets fixed somehow.
