In Reply to: Why do some people so desperately wish to believe in extraterrestrials? posted by Jay Buridan on May 8, 2021 at 10:15:47:
There was a time when that was true of places we have now gone to, other side of the continent, the moon, Mars. Considering the progress man has made in the last few hundred years, I don't even know why anyone thinks that it might be far fetched for an intelligent life form, years advanced, couldn't have gotten here.
The so desperately wish thing is something you are conjuring. Apparently, if someone thinks something counter to your train of thought, it is desperate because you see it as a stretch.
