hey I've got a theory.

There aren't neccessarily ALIENS out there. There are other humans. Possibly thinking similar things as us about space...

Astronomy is so fucking neat. I got a little taste of it when I was in 9th grade, but I never really went any further with it. I assume that you'd need to know all sorts of Calculus and math shit in order to be a good Astronomer, and I hate math.

Ive read in several places that scientists who study the solar system are usually athiests when they begin their careers, but some of them are just so amazed at the complexity and perfection of the universe that the believe that it HAD to be created by some intelligent being... whatever it may be.

I was searching for an article that might support that statement, and I ran acrossTHIS ARTICLE that's obviously not in favor of intelligent design. Not exactly what I was looking for, but maybe I'll give it a read later. I'm still gonna look for an article to support my original statement. I SWEAR I READ IT SOMEWHERE!!!
