Panspermia Hypothesis:=Life came to Earth in some capsules or meteorites...:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: so don,t look for Marvin the Martion because is living on Earth now...:tongue2: :tongue2:

Do we life in the Matrix?:=no,no is not the Keanu Reeves´ popular film, but some physicst say (of course after taking some kind of drugs..) that we live on a..¡¡2 dimensional world¡¡..so the 3-D is only an imagination and we are nothing but flats figures..of course the 3-D effect is caused by gravity.

Either I'm missing the point of Gaia, or its truly ridiculous. They just seem to start with some good ecological principles (unlike most of these types of things), hint at a reasonable conclusion, then just piss on all of it and take a truly rediculous leap into insanity.

This one is actually plausible, as I understand it. Is it not possible for a single-cell organism to survive a space journey (not necessarily operate while in transit)? It's an unnecessary conclusion, of course, since it just means life started somewhere else first.
