True, but I was talking about the gov't taking more of our hard earned money tracking down little green men. Money that we could be using to spread the gospel.
Do I want the feds to raise the budget for the FAA or USAF so they can find ET or Mr. Spock? Absolutely not. Let ET use his money to find us if it's so important.
We sent three manned missions to the moon, and landed the third time. We got out and walked around, surveyed the scenery, got back in and took off. Even the Vulcans landed and greeted the natives after Zefram Cochran tried out his warp drive.
So, the idea that these super intelligent, super advanced space aliens get their kicks out of buzzing a lone JAL cargo flight and scaring the sushi out of the pilot over remotest Alaska is pretty far fetched.
Only far fetched to the perspective of ignorance, cluelessness and stubborn willful blindness with little but shreds of convoluted twisted awareness of the topic at all.
