I’d be more suspicious of a person coming to my door purely just to educate me on cool science things. I wouldn’t be able to shake the feeling that he’s trying to sell me something.
At least with religion I know their game and I know I’m not interested but science that’s interesting.
I’d be more suspicious of them telling me life exists on Venus, specifically. Last I heard it was a hot-ass gaseous atmosphere made of acid. My money is still on Europa.
listen, you know you want that encyclopedia. imgaine how good it would look. women will swoon at your big books. you know what big books mean.
They spend an hour talking about the possibility of life on Venus then they whip out the vacuum cleaner
They sing a song about the vastness of space and then they start harvesting your organs.
