The timing of such events has implications for the search for intelligent life in space, he says.

I submit that they wouldn't know intelligent life if it came up and bit them in glutes. Why is it so much more plausible to believe that life is just a cosmic boo boo than to believe that we actually have a purpose ordained by our Creator?

Do you have evidence for the existence of this "Creator" as well as its methods, motives and meaning?
