when you realize the astronomical scale of the universe, the concept of things like aliens visiting becomes almost a joke, though the concept of aliens existing approaches yes.
Approaches? It's just yes. There's no way we're the only intelligent species in the whole freakin' universe. When you realize just how big it is.
lacking a detailed examination of every particle in the universe, a claim that there is without doubt other lifeforms in the universe can only be labeled as wishful thinking.
what i WAS saying though, was that the likelyhood of such an event approaches near certainty. a 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999% chance might as well be 100%. it is just a simple application of the mathematical concept of limits.
