You know this is the beauty of communication if one is interested in a subject no matter what, one word can lead us onto another interesting track.
Many a time in the past I have had a thought and then something appears to confirm my thought, have you ever just opened a page in a book and found an answer...."just like that"! That little voice which dwells within can help us free ourselves from sin. Mind you what is sin........no, no, no that is another subject......

Certainly another topic indeed.
One thing I wonder is what direction our species will take when/if we discover life on other planets or star systems. What would life be like for them? Is there a connection between life on earth and life elsewhere in the galaxy. And if we actually discover or are found by a spacefaring intelligent species then imagine all the possibilities for learning our origins.
Though Steven Hawking warns that it is not wise to broadcast our existence to other sentient beings across the galaxy (and in many ways I would be inclined to agree) the sheer curiosity that I feel needs to be sated by discovering we are not alone in the galaxy is just too much to pass on and I hope I'm alive to see this fulfilled.
