A phony equation. ... ( 1 month ago by penguinegg01)
A phony equation. It is all based on wishful thinking. It's not even guess work. Why would Sagan be drawn to this?

Also a major point ... ( 1 month ago by Gazzar)
Also a major point of it was to demonstrate how important the life time of a civilisation is to the final answer. i.e if civs typically live along time they are more likely to co-exist for a some period whereas shortlived civilisations will have little chance of contacting each other.
How about ... ( 1 month ago by richardhutnik)
How about multiplying that times f sub (GaD), "Give a Darn" meaning that the alien race has the motivation to send out radio waves and be detected? It is possible a lot of alien races, if they exist, would prefer to discover and probe before communicating. From survivability, trying to contact unknown entities is a large gamble.
Maybe because he ... ( 1 month ago by iliketocrushstones)
Maybe because he figured out everything else and he was trying to show how important it was for us to start exploring space, because the chances of another planet sending waves and us receiving them, is very small.

Sagan was a pompous ... ( 3 weeks ago by soupdragon42)
Sagan was a pompous hypocrite who refused to follow the evidence, choosing instead uncritical acceptance of all the mainstream's mathematical abstraction.
pompous fool who ... ( 3 weeks ago by globetrekker2)
pompous fool who tried to deny God, tried to repent on his deathbed and it was too late.
He cried the demons are coming for me. So long, Karl Marx burn in hell.

and you must bee.. the devil? I hope what you find out at your deathbed is this: SHIT there is no god.. or anything at all.. shit.. I've wasted my life listening to a stupid concept to measure human pain.. pitty I have only one chance of living this life.. now it's gone and wasted.. In my vocabulary, THAT is foolish
no. gentle friend, ... ( 3 weeks ago by globetrekker2)
no. gentle friend, listen to my words. They are written in stone. I only speak the truth, unlike people on here. Satan would love to arrange your death, from AIDS, or from a car accident. Your time is short. Get saved. Get in a good Bible-believing Protestant church and find out what life is about. Do this now, because Satan has a way of making us have an accident suddenly. Time is short. Signed, The Watchdog

They must of got you young, globetrekker. I pity you and your delusions. You are mentally ill.
The Drake Equation ... ( 3 weeks ago by TummyTush)
The Drake Equation isn't exactly accurate--you are right. But I don't think that the predictions were too wishful. I'd say they are relatively accurate. But am I willing to bet on the number of civilizations based on this equation? Certainly not.
Could you imagine, ... ( 3 weeks ago by scdlbrdr)
Could you imagine, if when humans began exploration of this planet, and found new civilizations (aboriginals, different races, etc); If they had have realized something like "Hey, let's shelter, feed, and educate these people, because this is another group of humans that could add to our intelligence, and better our way of living." Could you imagine the potential of human beings? The standard of living and technological advancement would be uncomprehendable. What a disgrace humans really are.

Sagan was always,and still is,captivating to listen to.What a brilliant man he was.
People that fall for Zecharia Sitchin and David Icke's nonsense need to be slapped up the side of the head.Grow up and grow a brain uniformed knuckleheads.
However, on your ... ( 3 weeks ago by globetrekker2)
However, on your deathbed, if you do happen to be one of those lost and receive the mark of obama on your forehead, I must warn you, you will be alone in the eternity, apart from God. The Bible does not promise you will have any company in that Lake of Fire. I rather believe people will be alone with a personal demon to torment them forever, but you will not see your friends like Sagan.
If you even begin ... ( 2 weeks ago by dramon231)
If you even begin to think you have a clue whats beyond.. presume you know what what a creator thinks.... your a conceited pompous ass if you use the word god your suffering from brain damage. If it werent for blind faith... we might have been saved.. but its seems ignorance will destroy us yet.. keep arguing over who made this planet... while we try to find a way off of it!!!.. In other words ... Quit pretending you have a F*cking CLUE! what made you.

Well, I don't see ... ( 1 week ago by devonherrington)
Well, I don't see evidence of life on other planets, but I don't see evidence of god, either.
Got to have evidence, and I'm sorry your brain hurts because you can't take the possibility of life on other planets.
I hope you're joking, too.

Well first your assuming that everyone is a Christian. Which is where you make your first epic fail. Your second fail is "my brain hurts".

try using a drake equation analogy to calculate how many people as smart as Carl Sagan have existed in modern times, but ended up w/out education, or as a slave, or killed in violence etc. Quite interesting.
