  Speaker 1: Got a couple of messages here during the bank basically
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: people just saying, are you do you really believe in
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: aliens and alien life and all that kind of stuff. Yes,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: I do, not obsessed with it, but yes I do.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Why why would you not? I mean, that's something that
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: I've always I've always wondered about people who I mean,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I can understand you saying, oh, I don't believe alien abductions,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: they're not coming here, and I can understand you being
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: skeptical about that stuff. But people that are so definitive
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: about their belief that there is no life on any
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: other planet inside or outside of our own galaxy, They're
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: they're steadfast, can't be There's no possible way. I just
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I wonder what convinces you of that. My mind is
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: open to it. I believe it's pretty likely. But some
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: people will look at you when you say that and think, well,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: you're just your nuts. If you believe that, you're just
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: you're crazy. Well, my question back to you is what
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: makes you so absolutely sure that there's not? I think
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: your your determination to be right about your point is
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: harder to understand than mine to be open to points.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Or again, maybe that's just me many things are A
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: two one nine eighty six A two one wu TV
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: in Chuck, thanks for hanging on. You're on the Legacy
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Retirement Group dot com phone lines.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for taking my call, Chuck. So, one of
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: the most important quote unquote inventions of the nineteen hundreds
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: was the transistor. Yes, and oddly enough, the transistor came
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: into being about six months after the Roswell crash.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Right here in central Ohio with Belle Lebs now known
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: as Bettel right.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: And I was I looked into this a little bit,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and no one was really working on it just sort
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: of popped up. Now, the other point I wanted to
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: make you know, throughout the history of the world, there
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: have been millions of people who have reportedly seen and
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: had contact with some kind of life form not of
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: this earth. So if one of them is telling the
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: truth and accurately recounting what happened to them, just one,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: it's real.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: That's all you need is the one that is all
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: you need is and I just you know again, I Chuck,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I know there's crazies out there. Every time I wash
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: my dishes, alien comes out of the sink and sucks
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: me down into the bales of hades.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're nuts, and I might be one of the crazies,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: All there you go. Every now and then, even a
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: blind squirrel finds a nut, as they say, I appreciate you, buddy,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: thanks very much for the call. And he's exactly right
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: with the you know, the many reports that come in
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: from around the world, if only one is accurate, well,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: there you go. That's all you need. That is all
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: you need. And my question, by the way, is sincere
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: for the for people that think I'm nuts for saying
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: that I believe there could be very well life in
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: other places, My question to you is, sincere, how are
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: you so adamant in your belief that it's not possible?
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: That is a valid question. A two one nine eight
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: eighty six. ED, you are on six ten do w
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: U TV.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: At night with all the stars that are billions of
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: ears older than ours, plus the galaxies too, Why would
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: you know what's the odds of there never be any
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: life anywhere else?
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I call that pretty.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Minimal, absolutely, I And you know what we call life, ed.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: We know we breathe in this uh, this mixture of
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: hydrogen and oxygen and that's our standard on this planet.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: That is what we know. Life does not have to
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: be like us everywhere. Just because we eat this and
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: we drink this does not mean that anything alive does
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: the same.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: And people, uh, they've got they've got stuff growing on
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: the outside of the space station. How does that happen?
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, I didn't know that there's vegetation on the outside
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of the space station.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Oh they got some kind of stuff growing up out there.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: E both all that radiation and everything seems that, yeah,
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: seems to thrive in it.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: So that is interesting. I appreciate it. Thank you, Zach.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Can you do your googling stuff and see if you
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: can find any kind of any kind of legitimate stories
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: regarding something growing on the outside of the space station,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: because that's I mean in space. A not inside of
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a space station in a controlled environment, but in space
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: what we know to be vegetation shouldn't grow. It needs soil,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: it needs nutrients, it needs sunlight. Photosynthesis isn't going to
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: occur for you know, a seed that's laying on a
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: piece of metal in the vastness of space. I can't
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: believe that. Do you know anything about that?
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at it's gonna take a minute, because they
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: have stuff that grows on, like in the space station
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: with with light that they brought up and all that stuff.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I could see, you know, having a chia pet
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: or something inside the space do Yeah, I'm looking for
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: the outside. Okay, just because I've not heard anything about that.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: And I've also had you know, because I'm pretty open about,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: you know, my faith, and I am not what what
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Dad would have called a thumper, but I believe in
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: my higher power and I take that believe very seriously.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: And I've had that question people say, how can how
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: can you believe in God and read a Bible and
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: believe that there's ay? And that doesn't make sense? Why?
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Why what I believe in isn't all knowing, all seeing
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: it at all, beginning and end, all powerful being who
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: would not, under any circumstances find himself content with just us.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: When you have the vastness of everything in your control
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: in your sight, would we be it for you? If
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: you were doing I mean, we are created in His image.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: If you believe that that is the case. Now, if
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: it were you in His image, would you be done?
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: One rock in the Solar system throws some life forms
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: on there. Okay, I'm done. No, of course not. Well,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the Bible doesn't mention Our Bible doesn't mention it. My gosh,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: the arrogance just because our Bible on this planet, for
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: this group of beings that we call humans, that's ours.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: What what's out there in the galaxy, for goodness sake,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: out there in the universe doesn't have to be the same.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Maybe they have their own, wouldn't you think Again, it's
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: a legitimate conversation. It's got nothing to do with faith.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: It's got to do with with possibility, and I think
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: open mindedness. And when somebody attached to these things just disappears.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: And it's not leading every newscast a high ranking member
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: of our United States military. It's not a headline on
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: every newscast that that gives me reason to be even
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: more curious. A two one w TV and is a
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: number pill you're on the Legacy Retirement Group dot com
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: FUM nine type.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: Oh, hey, Chuck, Actually it's it's a bill.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry. I when when Zach spells things there,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: they're always different what I'm reading.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Here's why I think it's highly unlikely that there is
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: intelligent life anywhere else in the universe. First of all,
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: what we have to acknowledge that they would have the
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: same creator that we had or have, and that they,
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: like us, would be imperfect and flawed, and they, like us,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: would require such a sacrifice as Jesus' sacrificed, you know,
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: dying on the cross, going to Hell for three days,
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: and being risen from the dead in order to provide
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: a path to salvation for us and for them also,
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, how many times is God going to have
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: his son go through that to save how many other
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: universe you know, how many other peoples on how many
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: other planets? Thinking it's a one and done deal. I mean,
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: he wouldn't put his son through that.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Well, you're assuming the same story. You're assuming the same
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: storyline for every planet. I mean, who says that there
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: was a garden of Eva eating and Adam and Eve
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: on every planet? That is not necessarily the case. Maybe maybe,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: you know, after us, there were others. We don't have
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: to be the end. Maybe after us others.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: Really I have to argue that anybody else created by
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: God would be just as imperfect and flawed as we are.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: You know, do you think let me ask and this
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: is sincere question. Now, Bill, do you think the God
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: that we believe in, at least I believe in, do
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: you think he is capable of creating perfect if he
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: wants to.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: He's capable of doing anything he.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Will exactly exactly. So is it not possible that he
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: created a planet of perfect being, something to give him
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: joy without giving him the pain of our imperfections and our.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: Well Given that we have free will, it would seem
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: appropriate that they would also have free will. And you know,
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: free will is what gets us into trouble, and they
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: would most certainly have had their own Adam and Eve.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: They would have had to start beginning somewhere, I would imagine.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: And I don't know, Chuck, I got you, and I
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: believe me. I'm not being argumentative or trying to paint
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: you into a corner at all. But this is I've
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: had this argument with myself many, many times, because it's
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: something we all do, including me, every every televangelist does it,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: every small church preacher does it. We try, with our
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: puny little minds to understand the mind of something we
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: call God, and we can't. We can guess, we can,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: we can guess, but we can't. And That's why I say,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: if God wants a perfect god, create whatever world. If
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: he wants a world where everybody's made out of legos,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: that's exactly what will happen. And so that's why my
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: mind is so open to the possibilities, because I believe
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: if that is what he wanted, then there it is.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: If there could have been people on another rock in
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: space a billion years before us. He is the alpha
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: and the omega, my friend, there is no concept of time.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: We might be we might be number twenty eight trillion
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: in a series of planets where he has put life
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: where some people have a dog, a cat, a hamster,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: and a lemur in their house. He's got different things
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: on different rocks, and I think that's entirely possible. I
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised. Well.
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: I got to question, though, if he did create somebody perfect,
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: would they be individuals, would they have free will? Or
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: would they just be robots?
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I know I'm not smart enough to
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: know that, but it's an interesting and and the fact
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: that we consider around and talk about this and even
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: contemplate it among ourselves, that shows that there's hope for
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: all of us. I really believe that.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: I hope you're right, Chuck. We're going to find out soon.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: I you know, I believe you're right and uh, and
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: I'm smiling about that possibility as well. I read the book.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: I know how it ends.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah. My only fear is, you know, the people that
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: aren't going to make it and what they're going to
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: have to go through.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think about that a lot too. I think
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: about that a lot too. I'm gonna try to get
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: go ahead. I'm gonna try to get Ron in here.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to say goodbye to you, Bill because
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I want to try to get Ron in here for
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: at least a little bit before the music starts. Ron,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: You're gonna end this on six to n WTV N.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: Hey, guys.
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just want to say I believed in aliens
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: for many years. So young group wants to start trek
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: and all that good stuff, and at once I got
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: to be in my forties and try to go to
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: church and grow closer to God, I started to believe
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: less and less than that. I'm kind of more of
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: a thinking now that what we're seeing are angels and
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: demons appearing to us in a way that our human
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: minds could more deal with it than if we saw
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: them in their natural state.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Not out of the question, although oh, I would hope
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: if if angels were going to be visible, they'd be
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: visible in a way at least sometime in the near
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: future where we can recognize them, because Lord knows, if
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: we need some angels, it.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Would be yes, we do.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: It would be great if they actually were revealed to people.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: I got to run, buddy, Thanks very much for the call.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: You know, there was a time when an angel appeared
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: to those shepherds in the field and told them that
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: a savior was born. We could use that again. People
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: just need a little firm and up. We respond when
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: buildings come cras down, and then we go back to
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: fat and happy and seeing what's on Netflix tonight. I
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: don't want any more buildings to come down. Maybe the
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: next inspiration can be something positive. All right, music's playing
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: aliens on my mind, rainfalling, but temperatures are good, so
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: at least we have that
