SETI followers and faith.... Let me give you a definition of faith.
FAITH.
A well-known definition of faith:
"FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of
things not seen."
Who made that definition of faith?
It's not me.
I'll let you investigate if you don't know.
Be that as it may....
Does that definition of FAITH apply to the SETI fanatics, I mean adherents?
I mean followers?
Well?
Let's see then...Break down that quote into analytical parts...
[PART 1] "The substance of things hoped for"
,..SETI followers certainly "hope" for visual or electronic manifestation of the hypothetical existence of ET.
[PART 2] "The evidence of things not seen".
SETI followers certainly seek evidence of things [ET] not seen, nor manifest in any
way shape or form.
There is silence.
