For fucks sake, NASA already has a tiny budget, why did they spend $1 million on such a stupid project to begin with.

Even in history the religious or the people who control religion always do something to fuck up a society with ignorance with a fake story.
Hell look at the middle east religion really fucked up a really intellectual society and we see smart people turned into violent crusaders all in the name of a lie
and a false god that doesn't exist.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.

I could actually see a clinical study of the cultural impact on religious views the discovery of extraterrestrial life might imply; but a grant like that should go to a sociology department at a university, not to Christian foundation.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

You'd think that needing a million dollars to shoehorn your religion with the latest scientific findings would be a red flag.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
