    Don't play stupid. You clearly don't have much to work with as it is, so I would advise against waste.

    I did not mean that there are no planets harboring life outside of earth. That is not at all what I implied, and that was not at all the context of my comment. I was referring to visiting ETs, which are, in point of fact, a myth.

    There is no evidence for them, despite thousands and thousands of claims to the contrary, and there is plenty of evidence against the idea that such a phenomena is even possible, let alone probable. Why should I take any position other than this?

    Having an open mind does not include mythology. Are you open to the existence of leprechauns? Of unicorns? That's what UFOs are.

    It is alien speak meaning "have you checked your history books?"

    Myths are interfused with the unconscious mind, explaining away protracted psychological scenarios quickly and efficiently. The stagecraft of mythology is also infused with symbolic significance—symbols that interpret the nature of things almost meticulously. But a key proponent to the language of mythology is the collective unconscious mind that has scrupulously cultivated its language from across ancient millennia.

    So, what myth could the protagonist ET be representing?

    Sure, much obliged.

    What myth could the protagonist, ET, be representing?

    Repetition as clarification. Works every time.

    very interesting
    so when you look up into the sky and see something, it is an "image"
    for instance a speck in the sky which is most likely a plane at high altitude can never be referred to as an object.......

    gustav: hey, its a bird, a plane, its.......
    cifo: nonsense, as a scientist, i can only attest that it is an image
    gustav: image of what?
    cifo: there is no material evidence for any further scientific assertions
    gustav: do you wanna peer thru my binoculars?
    cifo: it makes no difference. it is still an image
    gustav: image of.......??
    cifo: image
    gustav: que?
    cifo: IMAGE!

    Reiku frequently says things which border on insanity, but he's never wrote anything as brazenly retarded as this. This post should actually go into the douche bag hall of fame.

    The myth that people really, truly aren't as stupid as they seem.

    "There are three men on a train. One of them is an economist and one of them is a logician and one of them is a Physicist. And they have just crossed the border into Scotland and they see a brown cow standing in a field from the window of the train.

    And the economist says, "Look, the cows in Scotland are brown."

    And the logician says, "No. there are cows in Scotland of which one at least is brown."

    And the Physicist says, "No. there is at least one cow in Scotland, of which one side appears to be brown."

    Are images of UFOs for real? I saw one when I was around 22 years of age. Two of us saw it, and even though it was a long time ago, I can still recall it.

    That can't be what you took from his comment.

    indeed
    all that whooping and hollering seems indicative of pathology


    light is processed by the eye and sent to the brain where it is formulated into a image. it is an representation of something

    now what?


    absolute certainty in a world of provisional truths? how cozily religious. but yes. we cannot be sure that the other half of the cow even exists

    /pathologically skeptical

    What things do we really need to be certain of in order to feel at ease?
