Ah but even SETI admits there are "candidates".......

And there is a whole message board at SETI@home that talks about the signals the vast majority even say it is a gamble and that SETI can only focus on a small part of the universe at a time, thus ET has to be "talking" at the same time we are focused there.

So again, it all runs on faith, as does everything in life when you come down to it. The strictest of scientists can't explain away all that is paranormal.... just as all that is claimed to be paranormal only a small percentage is truly unknown and without logical answer. But it still exists.
Science has tried to disprove the Bible and miracles from day one, yet..... it still doesn't shake one's faith. However, I have seen and know many scientists who have had their faiths shaken and stirred.
So who's right who's wrong???????? Only time will tell. You hold your beliefs, I'll hold mine.
