New Mars Forums

Hi,

totally messed up a reply to this topic, sent it to Melkor privately which wasn't meant...sorry Melkor...as the point I was hoping to make wasn't directed at only you, but was generated by your response to Ant's mental health.

Why should it matter what state someone's mind is in or not??  what famous names through the ages were 'mad' genius?  i am not saying that I think Ant is one of these, but neither could I say he is not, but as my own background in psychology would teach me, i would NOT pick open a scab and leave it bleeding....melkor you did just that and justified it by insinuating that you are somehow 'qualified' to do so.

I joined this list to learn about the possibility of mankind reaching Mars, I have been interested in this for some time, i have no illusions that I might actually understand some or any of the science talked about here, my interest in Mars might be described as a spiritual quest.  What interests me is the possibility of a new and fresh start, learning from the mistakes from Planet Earth, and not using Mars as an opt out clause...by that I mean, I dont feel that populating Mars with all that is dysfunctional on earth to be a viable solution nor an ethical one, anyways...that is probably off topic for this thread and I am sure some kind person will direct me to the buttons that Ineed to push to start a new thread and understand cyberspace. 

much love and light
Feyona
