Like debating biblical fundamentalists about 4 legged insects in Leviticus (which don’t exist according to scientific observation), I get the feeling you are just grasping at the ether, Rev. Hopeandbelieve
You mis-quote me. I never said a "brief encounter" would be a good thing. I said "proof".
How would a brief encounter be proof? That is now how science works. There are lots of brief encounters, like the Travis Walton insident. But the Travis Walton insident is not proof. Check out James Randi's web site about that. In fact, if I were you, I would study it a little.
