, 20:09, April 3, 2008→Extraterrestrial life ''must'' exist?: Carter sponsored a proposal to find the LGM
Jimmy Carter has never been any kind of UFO "nut" and this incident in his life is incredibly unimportant, compared with everything else. He admits to having seen something he didn't recognize (which is the definition of a UFO), to to haveing seen something definitely from outer space. He supported efforts to investigate such sitings, but is not in the Sagan camp about having said that extraterrestrial life "must" exist statistically. For this reason and because Carter is an active and self-described Southern Baptist and not an atheist, I removed his name from the list. If there is supporting documentation about a Carter statement to the contrary, then by all means use it and add his name back to the list.

:You, like many people, are exploiting the ambiguity of terminology. While "U.F.O." originally meant a flying "object" that was merely "unidentified", it common parlance it has become synonymous with extraterrestrial spaceships and so forth. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 16:09, 3 April 2008 (EDT)

Under the definition we give for global warming in our article (we give the "non controversial definition"), we would be hard pressed to label it like this... see my comment on [[Talk: Global warming]] [[User:DanH|DanH]] 16:08, 21 May 2007 (EDT)
