What is the most important question? If there is such a thing.?

For me that question is: Are we alone?

  • Read any news article. Out of the Who, What, Where, When, Why, or How, tell me the most important. We know everything about Lizzie Borden killing her parents except one thing. Everything about Lee Harvey Oswald and JFK? We know a little about life, gravity, electricity, numbers, on and on except the answer to one question always trips us up, whether you're a four year old daughter or a Professor at Trinity College:

    Why?

    Thomas Edison (phonograph, lightbulb, movies) said, "We don't know a millionth of a percent about anything" We know zero about why.

    Are we alone? Very profound question. The answer is Yes and No. No because there is certainly other intelligent beings somewhere out in that vast universe. Yes, because we will probably never make contact with them in our lifetimes.

    Its like you would consider yourself "alone" if you were stuck on a deserted island by yourself and had to live your whole life without seeing another human being, even though you know they are out there.
