Search for alien life

Announcement in last few days about the $135 million to be spent to search for alien life reminded me of this article I read a few months back which gave me a good giggle.

The 64-metre Parkes Radio telescope will be instrumental in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

as long as someone does not once again mistake the opening and closing of the microwave oven as a signal from outer space :) 

even if we can never get there it would be fantastic to make contact with someone from another planet.

 

SAW an interview last week,    with STEPHEN HAWKINS,,     he has donated a HUGE sum of money into reseach ,   as he belives there is other life OUT THERE,      if a mind like his can belueve it,    you have to wonder if,     but i have never had any doubt that there is life out there,     maybe not as we know it,    but life just the same, 

Of course there is other life out there. We can't even conceive of a beginning or an end so who are we to say "this that we know is it and nothing else exists"?

How will religions react if life IS found on another planet??
