A request for some HOPE from all A2Kers.

@mirbanar,

Ahhh, I was wondering when Cocoon would land.

I see no contradiction with agnosticism and the desire to learn and interest with creatures from outside our small planet. There are a lot of things that we don't know at this point in our evolution.

I'm not saying there's any contradiction between agnosticism and "...interest with creatures from outside our small planet." Not at all. My point was to question whether there's any contradiction between agnosticism and what amounts to prayer.

One of my points, Andy, was that there is no difference between hoping, wishing, and praying.

It was a comment about praying that ought to be given plenty of consideration...especially by theists.

I guess I was too subtle...although I thought by putting HOPE and WISH in all caps in my initial comments...the auxiliary point would be made.

I still would like to see aliens...so hope and wish along with me, Andy.

@Frank Apisa,

Are you asking us to believe in something?

I'm hoping and wishing too, Frank. But only if they were nice. I wouldn't want hooligans to disrupt our peaceful planet.

Nope. I'm asking people to wish and to hope. I thought I made that abundantly clear!

Or in your case I'd imagine a telescopic sight.

Wouldn't your ancestors have been aliens too?.

@Frank Apisa,

I probably would be interested if alien life were found but it would give not an iota of meaning to my life nor make death any different.

Why not humbly ask the Lord of all planets and life for help. He does not fail the sincere asker. Honest.

Past: you're 2 years late if you're expecting a reply from Frank. He took his ball and went to another court to play ball. He's not active here anymore.
