When Ray walks past a wall adorned, as Manhattan was after September 11, with notices begging for help in locating lost relatives, we think, “Yes, that’s what it would be like.”
Why should we revel in the loss of others and say "yeah, that's what it would be like" when we could make a movie that focused on the people who WERE murdered that day?
We have a horrifying enemy in our midst and these simpletons focus on sci-fi.
Would critics of the 1940s have said, "In the new movie The Screaming Mimi, there is a scene of many Americans suddenly attending funerals across the nation after a cataclysmic event. Imagine almost as many funerals as Americans went to after December 7,1941..."
NPR? Don't make me laugh.
It is irrelevant if we are alone in this universe. We will not encounter any other life. Certainly we would not want to interact with it any more than we want to interact with viruses, cockroaches, squirrels, kodiak bears, or chimpanzees. And I have news for Tommy, they don't want to interact with us either.
It is self-centered reasoning to believe that all of the variety of life is nothing but "random chance". Does he believe that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the galaxy?
