For Friday Faithfuls this week, Jim Adams would like to get our take on aliens. If aliens ever do come to Earth, do you think they will be here to help us, or to destroy us? How much longer do you think humans will be around for? Do you think that we will ever be able to colonize another planet outside of our solar system? If you think that you married an alien, then tell us why you think that. If you know for a fact that God created man, then please enlighten us.
Alrighty then, those are some interesting questions. Let’s take them one at a time.
My take on aliens is that in the immense vastness of the universe, the probability that there are other forms of intelligent life, in addition to on Earth, is high. But I think it’s highly unlikely that Earthlings and aliens from somewhere else in the universe will ever come in contact. Why? Because of the very vastness of the universe I mentioned earlier. The planets in the universe that can sustain life are separated by probably hundreds, if not thousands, of lightyears. Thus, unless some highly advanced intelligence has mastered hyperspace or warp speed, visits from alien life forms to Earth ain’t happening.
How much longer will humans be around for? Well, if we can’t find a way to combat climate change, maybe less than a few hundred years, if that.
Will we ever be able to colonize another planet outside our own solar system? Unlikely.
Am I married to an alien? Unlikely.
Do I know for a fact that God created man? Well, since I believe that man created God, I would posit that God did not create man. Or much of anything else, for that matter.
This, That, and the Other 
We haven’t learnt from the past. The inhabitants of Mars wasted the resources, depleted their water and turned Mars into a desert.
Some of the Mars gardeners came to Earth and cultivated the nature and environment. The creatures that developed lumbered about in a sustainable way. Then someone thought progress was the way to go.
Now the Earth is heading towards a Martian Extinction, turning the once “Blue Planet” into a “Rock of Disaster”

You might think I’m silly for making a comparison, here, but I noticed in elementary school while studying a world map or a globe that the continents looked like they would fit together. I wondered if they had once been together, but I didn’t mention the idea to anyone. Years later, I heard of Pangea.

I remember reading about this under the concept of continental drift.

The context in which I first heard that the idea, called Pangaea, had been embraced I don’t remember. I do remember it was something that flitted by, like on the radio at the end of a show or something like that. It’s interesting that a pangaia — “all the Earth” although the real notion is “almost all the landmasses” or a “supercontinent” — inkling came up to begin with from a meteorologist in 1912 (concerning said drift).

I have no idea where this Friday Faithfuls is taking me and I am going to give it one more chance before I pack it in. Next week will be lobbyists and I am sure you have something to say about them, but I am not getting the participation that I was looking for. Thanks for joining in, Fandango.

I think you’re burying the lede. Maybe you should, as you do with Thursday Inspiration, start out with “Respond to this prompt by….” Follow that up with your related text. Just something to think about.
