The point is - although the galaxy is not blaring with alien beacons or
radio stations, we should still try and detect electromagnetic emissions
of artificial origin. If we don't, we will never know the truth.


The corollary is that if we /do/ , we will /surely/ know the truth. Do
you believe that?

My point (belief) is - if you don't try, you won't succeed.

Unless of course alien space ships just show up in orbit tomorrow and
they are visible to everyone everywhere.


PS : Belief vs faith? Now that is topic for another thread!
