Aww.
I know it must be hard for you, being a virgin and all... but try and not just look at the 'hot space babe nailing', my friend.
There's a lot more to it...

It's ok my friend. One day you'll understand.
But until then, enjoy Earth Science and licking the shoes of people as they walk over the bridge you live under. Just whatever you do, relax.

Hmm, I bring up valid points as to why I think this story is unbelievable and one calls me a jealous virgin, and the other says that I am a shoe licking troll.
It begs the question, what is the motivation for anyone to believe this story?
There is no proof. There isn't even any evidence other than an anonymous man's word. It certainly isn't believable (I mean how many people do you know that have been to Uranus).
That leaves one reason that I can think of why someone would believe this story. This story appeals to the weak minded. The individuals that are scared and uncertain of what happens when they die. The individuals that desperately need some bit of hope. In Sleeper's tale, there is no heaven and hell. Earth is the worst it can get. You are living out the worst possible scenario. Unless you are some depraved murderous villian, your next life is going to be better. Hell, you even get to bang hot space babes no matter how much of a loser you might be now.
This story has it all. It's all upside and that is why weak-minded individuals are so attracted to it. From here on out, everything is peaches and puppy farts, and warm cuddly kitten kisses. That is right, my hand-holding hippy friends. IT'S ALL ONE BIG LOVE FEST!
Hell, it's pretty much the best afterlife anyone has ever offered outside of the Heaven's Gate cult. It has to be true. You need it to be true. Proof be damned. Logical inconsistancies be damned. The fact that a TOTAL FREAKING STRANGER is telling you that he went to a space mall, got a watch, and explored the galaxy in between numerous sexual encounters just doesn't matter. Embrace it and sleep a little more soundly tonight.
Enjoy your new religion.

Sleeper,
With your experiences being so "advanced", I would assume you must know what the meaning of life is.
This is not meant to be sarcastic, but a true question. What is your insight into the age old question of why the human race is here?

That’s the 64 million dollar question---do I get the cash if I answer?---lol
It’s so simple that many will only laugh and I have said it many times before...
Simply to prove what we are made of...
Some people currently today remove their souls from their bodies via induced OBEs or Astral Projection. I would think that "ET" has figured it out where it's not a task that is difficult at all for them.
“All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force... We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter.”

We were all flown here some in huge ships cramped into them like sardines, from various parts of the galaxy, tagged with work orders and provided with bodies and lives individually designed for each and every one of us---all six and one half billion people---for only one reason---drum roll please----
Not to prove anything to any god---wife, husband, children, parents, mother in law---wait, scratch mother in law---
Simply to prove what we are made of to ourselves, let me say it again---ah forget it---
Huh?...

As the physicist Max Planck said:
“All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force... We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter.”
I think we as the human race are just now realizing that consciousness creates our physical environment.
That being the case then we have control over what we create we just need to either remember how to do it or learn how to do it.
