Re: Unspoken Reasons for Russio-Ukraine War: An Unawakened Consciousness Problem

For most scientists and especially physicists, "God," just gets in the way. There's a Buddha quote that goes, "If you are on your path through the forest, and the Buddha stands in your way, strike him down." Meaning, in my interpretation :-) that if you have a better way, don't let me stop you.

Re: Self-Replicating Robots and Galactic Domination

I am thinking for CO2 and methane, you are not giving renewables a chance,  and the possibility of CO2 and methane extraction from the atmosphere a fair try, as yet. The greens worldwide are keen on attacking the FF vendors, and low key on providing alternatives first. Most seem to be from areas

Re: Self-Replicating Robots and Galactic Domination

The numbers are way off. I suspect there may only be a few thousand planets with complex life in any galaxy. I would then say that given life has been here in complex form for 600 million years and that Homo sapiens have been here 100,000 years this means at any given time using this as a guide
