    We only have one data point. Until we have conclusive evidence of life beyond this world, we need to operate as if we’re the only ones.

            My answer is that we have to work with the best evidence available because informed decisions lead to better outcomes…

                Making a decision based on the best evidence available… I feel like I’m repeating myself. Oh, I see. You’re trolling.

                  Is everyone who challenges your ideas a troll? Sorry. I’m still not trolling you OR arguing just to argue.

                  They all had the best evidence available, yet thought that the best way was to oppose a different idea
