The Seemingly Insuperable Difficulties Of Deep-space Travel Suggest An Intention To Keep Us Fixed At Home In Our Own Solar System, And The Physical Nature Of Our Part Of The Universe, As Well As The Basic Rules Of Physics And Chemistry, Have A Warning Look About Them, Like Barriers Designed To Isolate Intelligent Life. This Means That For Us, Unlike The Situation For Humble Microorganisms, Deep-space Travel Is Probably A Stark Impossibility.

Once We See, However, That The Probability Of Life Originating At Random Is So Utterly Minuscule As To Make It Absurd, It Becomes Sensible To Think That The Favorable Properties Of Physics, On Which Life Depends, Are In Every Respect Deliberate.... It Is, Therefore, Almost Inevitable That Our Own Measure Of Intelligence Must Reflect Higher Intelligence -even To The Limit Of God.

The Universe Is A Put-up Job.

In Short There Is Not A Shred Of Objective Evidence To Support The Hypothesis That Life Began In An Organic Soup Here On The Earth.

Well, We Now Have Such A Photograph... Has Any New Idea Been Let Loose? It Certainly Has. You Will Have Noticed How Suddenly Everybody Has Become Seriously Concerned To Protect The Natural Environment... It Seems To Me More Than A Coincidence That This Awareness Should Have Happened At Exactly The Moment Man Took His First Step Into Space.
