On Sun, 9 Apr 2006 01:56:38 -0400, in a place far, far away,
"jonathan" made the phosphor on my monitor glow in
such a way as to indicate that:

He is saying they are in the process of designing our next
generation of spacecraft for just that purpose. He is in
the process of committing us to it. I am only asking why.
If that offends you, then I know it's the right question.

I think your syllogism is busted.


So his conclusion that Nasa's goal is based on faith, NOT science
to use his words, is acceptable to you?

Yet another busted syllogism.

Maybe you don't know what the word "syllogism" means?

Why won't anyone answer
that simple question? The answer is obvious, because there's no
reasoning with faith.


Main Entry: sheep
Pronunciation: 'shEp

2 a : a timid defenseless creature b : a timid docile person; especially :
one easily influenced or led

And another one.

But since you asked, science is a form of faith. Except it's one that
works.
