I understand, Ryk. People get into such disagreements over religion. Not to reduce it to taste but I would never convince or force someone to like lobster if they preferred steak or even have the subject come up at dinner. I used to like political discourse but it's become so vitriolic I avoid it and it's not because I don't have a strong opinion. The fact that these days politics even arises out of a discussion on religion is absurd too. A have dinner once a week with a friend I've forbidden to discuss politics because I refuse to budge on my liberal views. It shouldn't matter what I think or whether I agree with him or not. *sigh*
I believe in God and Angels like your wife. I've seen proof enough in my life but I don't believe in aliens because I've never seen one. On the other hand there must be aliens. How can there not be, mathematically speaking. The odds can't be wrong, re: The Fermi Paradox. The probability is too high. Are we unable to see them due to some advanced technology or are we The First Technological Civilization? My philosophy is that they're here already and secretly abducting people for whatever reasons.
