Seriously?

So, Hitler's a Liberal, now? You can add Ronald Reagan [1] and Newt Gingrich [2] to the list of wacky Liberals who believe(d) in aliens. --BobD 04:44, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't really understand why you think the search for intelligent life outside of Homo sapiens means globalism, environmentalism, and atheism. You do have a point on government spending though. Sulgran 04:53, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Because aliens aren't mentioned in the Bible, so they don't exist. I mean, DUH. (Ignore the fact that germs, subatomic particles, and any planets further out than Saturn aren't mentioned in the Bible, either.)
And what's so evil about wanting NOT to trash the planet? It isn't like we've got a spare in the trunk. --BobD 04:58, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

And by the way, the SETI program, over 14 years of government funding, only got about 600 million dollars, total. [3] I suspect the FBI spends more than that on paperclips every year. --BobD 05:32, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

The first people that Hitler put in concentration camps were liberals and communists. This is a true fact - neither conservative nor liberal.

Since when was Carl Sagan a leader? And what has SETI to do with nuclear disarmament?Chrysogonus 10:26, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

I think it's another one of Andy, Conservative, et al's favorite thing to do - argue that liberals were connected with the ideology of the holocaust. This is the third time I've heard it. The first one was how the Enlightenment & rationalism lead to the holocaust... now the search for extraterrestrial life does... I guess the link is pretty clear...? :-P -AmesGyo! 10:29, 14 April 2007 (EDT)
Folks, Carl Sagan was the public spokesmen for liberal scientists in the 1970s and 1980s, and an informal adviser to Jimmy Carter and other Democratic leaders. He was like Alan S. Blinder or Laurence Tribe today in other fields.--Aschlafly 10:39, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Do you have a cite for Hitler? Or do you just like including his name next to liberals' names, to be purposefully inflammatory?-AmesGyo! 10:52, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Ames, I would have thought you'd oppose this on the "falsehood" grounds. Perhaps you should ask them to prove that the assertion that "there must be life on other planets" is false. (Also, I'd say the whole thing misrepresents the position on this matter, I think it would be better rendered "in all probability there is life on other planets" --Abrown 10:59, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

All in due time, Abrown. But good catches, on all parts. Andy, cross-apply, please - can you prove that intelligent life doesn't exist in the universe? Let's have a thought experiment - I have faith that extraterrestrials exist.-AmesGyo! 11:02, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Leaving aside the claim that ET is responsible for nuclear disarmament and environmentalism, which seems frankly bizarre, it seems that those things are included as Bad Things in that list. Am I reading that right? Chrysogonus 15:48, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

Extraterrestrial life must exist?

First of all, since when are extraterrestrials a "liberal falsehood"? I can understand claiming that they don't exist (although no conclusive evidence in support of any camp on the issue has been proffered), and that they are thus a "falsehood", but liberal? In addition, who has made the claim that such life must exist? --Hacker(Write some code) 08:40, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Please read up on what people thought in the 1970s. Watch "E.T.", which broke all box office records.--Aschlafly 10:41, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't think that E.T was a documentary, was it? Chrysogonus 10:47, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Careful - someone on this site (seriously) claimed that Godzilla was a documentary that proved that dinosaurs were still alive today. And, Andy, E.T. wasn't a liberal flick.-AmesGyo! 10:52, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Global Warming
