Richard Hoover of NASA claims to have found alien microbes inside of a meteorite (right side, left side is a real terrestrial bacterium). I predict 2 types of responses: pathological rejection and people who equate this with sentient space faring beings. Frankly I think panspermia is the only theory of evolution which makes much sense.

Darwinism and the Fermi Paradox
June 23rd, 2009 · 10 Comments
For those who might misinterpret my prior comments on Darwinism here’s a clarification. The philosophy of Darwinism leads many people to use the word “paradox” to describe the lack of alien visitors. They all “know” that the evolution of sentient life is easy, so facile, that the Milky Way “must be” teaming with intelligent life. [...]

More ideas on the Fermi Paradox
June 21st, 2009 · 5 Comments
Many recent blog posts continue to try to explain the Fermi Paradox. I’ll try to explain why these writers just don’t get it. http://enfranchisedmind.com/blog/posts/the-fermi-paradox/ http://www.edge.org/q2006/q06_9.html http://www.entangledstates.org/2009/06/where-are-they-another-solution-to-fermis-paradox.html http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/23604/ http://www.wunderkabinett.co.uk/damndata/index.php?/archives/1796-Alternative-solutions-to-the-Fermi-paradox.html http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0408521v1 Many people still are confused on several points about the Fermi Paradox. Let’s start with the name. The word paradox is used because everyone “knows” it’s [...]

Fermis Paradox
June 19th, 2008 · 2 Comments
Fermi’s Paradox can be resolved in many ways. My preference is the following: Natural evolution of advanced species is much rarer than most Darwinists would have you believe. It is in fact so rare that the probability of at least one species evolving in any given galaxy is below 1 (perhaps well below 1). Many [...]
