		<description>Dear Hilton:

Achieving global water equilibrium on Earth, over time, will have a decisive bearing on climate change and climate conditions - something with which humankind - or I should say human unity and evolutionary panaltruism - can become intimately involved.  Brig Klyce's website www.panspermia.org is all science.  Panspermia will advance your holistic vision and participation in cosmology issues.

		<description>Dear Robert,

I do appreciate your participation here, although it is difficult to establish what your theory is from what you've written here, and how that might link in to any of the streams of my blog. You are right - panspermia is not one of my areas of interest, and I don't recall ever having much to say about it. I am still puzzled how your comments relate to my post about climate dynamics and the anthropogenic global warming swindle. Does panspermia in your view have an effect on climate? If so, it seems to be stretching things a bit.

Regards

		<description>Dear Hilton:

I believe your contribution on many issues is considerable; however, you apparently have overlooked the work of N. C. Wickramasinghe, Fred Hoyle, and Brig Klyce (www.panspermia.org) with respect to panspermia, barely discussed in your writings.  I cannot speak for Hoyle, Wickramasinghe, Klyce and Arp on directed panspermia, but my comments to you definitely are a response to "Why Are We Here?

Forelaws on Board is located not far from Rolla and Cape Girardeau, and I am very much inclined to go along with you and Oliver Manuel on our star's composition.

		<description>Hi Robert,

Huuuhhhh??????

Is that a comment on what I posted? I honestly don't understand what this is about. It seems to me you are just advertising your own hypothesis or philosophy without consideration of my posts or indeed even using physical science. I simply do not get this, and would ask you to limit your comments to logical discussion of the topics I post.

Thank you.

		<description>Subject:  Life-Centered Cosmologies and Human Unity in the Age of Cosmic Genealogy  
 
In 1859 Louis Pasteur disproved spontaneous generation of life, thus beginning the age of cosmic genealogy meaningfully characterized and defined by evolutionary panaltruism and human unity in shaping new vision and new direction for humanity:  basic to life-centered cosmologies.   Universal forelaws of empathy and compassion (empirical attributes of cosmic genealogy seated within the genome of humankind and all intelligent life) form the foundation of evolutionary panaltruism and human unity.   Though today actively in denial of their own compassionate humanness, international terrorists remain genetically predisposed to assess and assume their rightful place in the compassionate/cooperative global society.  Human unity is imperative in creating a democratically planned and shared global economy, in dealing with climate change, and in rolling back desertification on Earth (see Global Water Equilibrium). 
   
Life-centered cosmologies - uplifting human vision and direction critical to human unity and all life on Earth - build upon ongoing scientific research and discovery merging astrobiology and astronomy as pioneered and led by the late Sir Fred Hoyle, by N.. C. Wickramasinghe, Brig Klyce, Halton C. Arp, and others.    
      
"Life comes from space because life comes from life." . . . . . . . . . .  "But in order for life to climb the tree to a higher level, new genetic programs are required - which mutation and recombination alone cannot supply.  When they are supplied, a major advance may ensue.  Thus, in strong panspermia, the problem of punctuated equilibrium is also resolved. . . . . . . A consequence of this reasoning is that life on Earth can have descended only from life elsewhere that was at least as highly evolved as it is here."  
   
-  Brig Klyce, Astrobiology Research Trust
     
As part and parcel of naturalistic Nature ("everything is connected to everything else"), life-centered cosmologies reflect cognizance of the observable universe of humankind (13,000 million light years in all directions), of solar systems with and without intelligent life, and of global water equilibrium.  New human vision and direction highlight NASA's Kepler Mission and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) aided by recent breakthrough technology suppressing the light of stars.   Launched in March of 2009 to monitor 100,000 stars for orbiting Earth-size planets (adding to the number of exoplanets (400) already discovered), Kepler will be followed by Terrestrial Planet Finder, 2012-2015 and Darwin, 2014.      
 
Intelligent life reciprocally propagated from infinity to infinity by intelligent life, from habited sites to habitable sites, is a natural consequence of evolutionary panaltruism keyed as well to intrinsic needs of all intelligent life, i.e.,  to know from whence we came, safety and security, meaning and purpose.  Exemplifying "concern for others and for those who will succeed us . . . . ." (Center for Naturalism), evolutionary panaltruism and holistic forelawsship at the core of life-centered cosmologies and global water equilibrium speak volumes for human unity, indefinable potential, and optimism, in the age of cosmic genealogy on Earth.    www.forelawsonboard.net/CosmicGenealogy.html

		<description>Hi,

I am reading your book now. It's fantastic, although I read it with the eyes of a theologian. I love your book. Would recommend you to read the 2 books below. Even the stars teach us the story orf jesus christ.
