She is at least somewhat right, though, in that respect. You do make some articulate and well thought out points, which I can respect. Still, your writing reads like that of a pious, coffee-drinking pseudo-intellectual, which continually irritated me. Even your rebuttal to her comments came off as condescending."I know it may blow your mind and make you deny it vehemently, but you are not the smartest person in the world."
"So to claim that you as a layperson know all the possibilities of space travel and what the benefits are is rather arrogant of you."
Sidenote*
Please don't try to condescend to me, those who are not confident in their knowledge of issues tend to side-step points by resorting to irrelevant analogies or irreverent insults which are not pertinent to the many variables at hand; the Ad Hominem approach does the exact opposite to solidify arguments, and is a catalyst for hostile discussions. Please reserve blatantly rude comments for another site - thanks. Next time I will simply not reply.
Way I see it, we have a couple choices, maybe more:
Either a) we take a chance, blow a bunch of money, and see where off-Earth colonization gets us or b) we sit here and deplete Earth's resources further. Either way, there's going to be inconveniences.
