Faith isn't necessarily a religious term, I have faith that my car is still where I parked it.
Have to disagree there Chris - what you are expressing is hope, not faith. You can have faith in terms of full confidence in someone or faith as a matter of conviction without evidence. If you have faith that your car will still be where it was parked - but it’s not, then at best you have misplaced faith or possibly mis-placed your car.

I have to disagree with your disagreement, hope implies doubt. As my car is parked in a secure car park I have a strong conviction that it will still be there when I go back to it. I don't know for sure, hence faith rather than knowledge. If it was parked in a dodgy area and I didn't feel confident about it I'd hope that it was still there. People can have faith but ultimately be wrong.
 
If I was an Alien life form capable of travelling unfathomable distances in an unfathomable space, the first thing I’d do is come here, hide, and watch some cockwombles like us.

Interesting thread. Makes it even more interesting read during these special Covid infested times.

In past I have tried to read up and become some sort of 'expect' on these matters but soon gave up being more befuddled than I was; given the vastness of what I was trying to deal with. Worse still, I am still on fence, which alien camp to join.
Questions pop up more questions than answer any and somewhere along the lines difference between Aliens, God and evolution blurs to enters the gory realms of consciousness.
Thankfully the madness left as fast it developed and I got busy with 'life'. Perhaps the lesson was, don't try to read too much between the lines or try to decipher how God works or if Aliens are prospecting the earth secretly for resources. On the topic of God and his aliens, the mere idea of God brought mankind where it is today, at the brink of a very large abyss. That Godot is never going come visiting you but perhaps aliens will. However they dont leave any visiting cards so there is this element of surprise or credulity.
Are there any aliens? Yes, they are here https://archive.org/details/ErichVonDanikenChariotsOfTheGods/mode/2up
Maybe there are no aliens because some say there aren't any here https://www.smithsonianmag.com/scie...ications-and-lies-of-ancient-aliens-86294030/
What about consciousness and the conjurer? I don't know anything about it because as a working middle class bread earner for family I am not aware how it works but some people like to discuss these serious matters with unbounded passion here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Case_of_the_Speluncean_Explorers
But it gives me a chuckle when someone explains to me bits of how evolution works. Why men always ready for action at drop of hat or pants for the fact of matter, whereas women just don't want to see the light and they take ages to get ready for action. Evolutionists tells me it all started when Cro-Magnon and Neanderthals came face to face. Male of both sides wanted to expand and establish colonies by raiding the shelters of each other; make the ladies pregnant and withdraw ASAP from the scene. See the logic, ladies just don't want to be standing there and welcome possible rapists from opposite camps. Thanks to this branch of evolution men is having to deal with the shame of early ejaculation. On the side note, another puzzling development is Homo erectus could mate only like primates (females with colourful genitals that were so attractive to males) but turning into Homo Sapiens (Cro magnon and Neanderthal combined) someone at evolution engine (Possibly God or Aliens?) thought Hey now let's give nice pair of well-endowed knockers to the ladies so man is attracted to them and facilitates a missionary pose mating.
More than God and Aliens, the burning question is, who is driving this old VW Beetle and where is the next stop?

I forget the quote from Brian Cox, something to the effect that there are trillions of galaxies each with billions of stars, Carl Sagan said that there are so many planets out there that there were certainly many other people but on the laws of probability there will be peoples who look like us and speak the same form of English as ourselves.

I do like a good alien or ghost story. We recently watched a documentary on Skin Walker Ranch which was both quite good and weird at the same time.
