    You do realize that isn't the only time he has discussed aliens? now, I'm not going to spend time looking on youtube for the video in which he said aliens don't exist because we're not dead, however he deduced the idea in the video I posted.

    Hawking is a terrible philosopher and everything that comes out of his mouth isn't fact, knowledge or wisdom.

    Don't get me wrong he has every right to have an opinion but a lot of his opinions are straight up stupid... However a lot of people take his opinions seriously because he is Hawking... So what? Ben Carson is a pioneer in brain surgery and no one takes his political opinions seriously... Yet Hawking speaks with his robot thing and it's all of a sudden some sort of magic thought?

    None of this crossed my desk "yesterday".
    What I realize is how pointless it would be to spend time looking for something that he never said.

    Deduce what he said.

    Draw me your logical conclusion?

    My only interest is what he said verbatim;
    not what someone "thinks" he said.

    First of all he did say it, he also said it was important to look for intelligent extraterrestrial life anyway despite the fact he believe they would kill us all..

    What do you think about that logic?

    That is like seeking out cannibalistic tribes in a jungle..

    Goes to show how rational he is..

    Of course I believe aliens already visit us, so his retarded logic is moot to me.

    Let me refresh your memory.
    In post # 91 you said:
    “Hawking claims that if aliens existed they would have already destroyed us, hence since we're not destroyed then aliens don't exist
    I asked you several times to provide evidence that he's ever put it in that context;'
    I know you can't because he never has.
    .
    I think that people, especially adults, who resort to incessant name-calling, have some type of complex or emotional issue.
    At the very least it exhibits sophomoric behavior.
    Moving on

    He did say it, I saw him say it and his comment alone by deduction shows it...

    Hawking's logic is (*)(*)(*)(*)ed up.... If you want to follow him like Jesus then go ahead - that's cool but don't expect me not to have an opinion when he says stupid (*)(*)(*)(*)...

    Just because he's good at numbers doesn't mean he is any more logical than anyone else.

    IMO, numbers people do way more harm to science than they do good.....

    Hawkings seems very brain damaged.

    I mean, just look at the guy. You can tell he ain't right, and it's not just his legs,.

    I wouldn't go as far as brain damaged but, outside of math he is pretty much useless...

    Of course math, logic and philosophy are all different ideas, he sucks at the latter two because his world is numbers...

    Yep. People who work in universities who have never seen the inside of a manufacturing plant.
