Please don't read me as being impudent or insulting, because I do not mean to have that tone. However, I think that it is just as arrogant to believe that we are -not- alone. To do so assumes that development of intelligence and life are inevitable, that our condition is a necessary one in the universe. That is conceited. We just don't know if there is other life or not. We do not know if there is other intelligence or not. I hope that there is; I would be really excited to learn of it, and so would most people. But, we do not know. This I do know: nobody has produced good evidence for contact by any life from somewhere other than this planet. And it is goofy to hear claims about abductions, flying saucers, etc. They make me doubt the existence of intelligent life on my own planet!
