SETI ought to be abandoned, since the probability of detecting an actual signal (as opposed to the random noise which is continuously detected) is so astronomically remote as to be meaningless.


I’d be quite surprised if you could show me the evidence and numbers you used to arrive at the astronomically remote probability.

Why can’t people admit that some things are simply unknown and incalculable at present? No one knows what the odds are of SETI discovering intelligence on another world.


Poor Davetard - I don't think he's thought through the implications of what he's posted with regard to that cult he's in.
