a word about yesterday's "alien" post

As Carl Sagan said in his book The Demon-Haunted World, the question "Do you believe in UFOs?" misses the point. The existence of UFOs and aliens isn't a matter of belief; if they exist, their existence is a matter of fact. The method by which the question is explored can only be empirical, not spiritual. Just as you can't expect prayer to answer questions about the amount of water on the moon, you shouldn't expect divine intervention to provide answers to questions about alien life.

Thanks for your comment, but why not write it in ENGLISH?
