Huh?

Post by _subgenius »


The New York Times published a story Thursday night about the likelihood that aliens have visited Earth. The main takeaway? Aliens could be real and the U.S. government has been conducting classified briefings in recent years about things left behind by “off-world vehicles.”

What indeed! This is one issue on which I surely share your skepticism!
No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Just when we were beginning to think that Donald Trump was a "naturally" devolved human being! That spray-on skin bronzer might be some sealant to keep the whole contraption from coming unglued (and it is probably failing as observed through signs such as requiring two hands to drink a glass of water and by exceedingly strange answers during interviews).

Has anyone ever seen a birth certificate for Elon Musk?

Your obsession with Trump does not have to permeate every.single.thread.

True.
But how bold is the statement "off-world vehicles"? That alone seems to require way more attention.
