I believe that aliens probably exist, but I doubt they would act in the mysterious way UFOs are reported to.

I am not for sure if there is such a thing as aliens.

the universe is a bit on the unnecessarily big side if we are the only sentient creatures who inhabit it.

i'm 50-50 on that. i believe in intelligent life, yes, but as fridgidus said, i doubt that they'd act the way "UFOs" do. and what's the point of flying over earth so often over these years? checking on how far our civilization is along?

Stephenville, TX has one of the best rodeo colleges around. I know quite a few people from there, and they are definitely not idiots. There is nothing wrong with being a hick. :roll:

Humanity certainly has done a good job of convincing itself otherwise.

Actually, even if your ships only average 1/10c, it still shouldn't be too difficult to colonise the Galaxy in a mere 100 million years. After that, getting to the next galaxy will certainly be interesting (hope your closed-system life-support is really closed-system), but I assume someone will work out a way, and humanity can happily colonise most of the universe.

EDIT: Yes, I do believe there are some variety of aliens in existence. What I don't believe in is the blindingly stupid space-elf alien that's become popular lately.

I think the aliens do it for fun, find a planet that hasn't developed interstellar travel, choose some backwater place, stick some antennae on your head and make "woooOOOoo" noises in front of some unsuspecting farmer. It's even better than tipping cows.

Not to mention that the alien sightings all appear identical to humans, which is stupid.

I agree

I'll say yes, though I doubt that the majority of UFO sightings are actually real.

Yes, because I used to live in Arizona and I and my freinds have seen many red and blue orbs, silver craft, diamond craft, pyramid ships. Just spend a few months out in the highplains desert and you will see something. My only mistake is that I never carried a camera with me, i won't make that mistake in the future.

Here is something of interest. Here is a Public Statement by President Truman on July 12, 1952. This speech was given to the Ground Observer Corps and establishing "Operation Skywatch":

202. Statement by the President on the Ground Observer Corps' "Operation Skywatch."

July 12, 1952

STARTING Monday morning, in 27 States, civilian volunteers of the Ground Observer Corps will inaugurate "Operation Skywatch."

This is a commonsense precaution in which Americans can serve proudly and in which the fellow citizens of the watchers can derive satisfaction.

The total policy and efforts of the United States and its allies are to prevent war. We shall never diminish our hopes and labors in this cause as long as no aggressors attack us.

However, in this new age in which hostile forces are known to possess long-range bombers and atomic weapons, we cannot risk being caught unprepared to defend ourselves. We must have a trained force of skywatchers. If an enemy should try to attack us, we will need every minute and every second of warning that our skywatchers can give us. In that awful eventuality, the margin of warning may make a critical difference in the effectiveness of our air and ground defenses, and in the efficacy of our civil defense measures--it could save many lives and facilitate protection of vital services and production.

Our greatest hopes for peace lie in being so strong and so well prepared that our enemies will not dare attack. Every citizen who cooperates in "Operation Skywatch" as well as in other defense activities, is helping prevent the war none of us wants to happen.

Now this is what happened on July 12, 1952:

I just did a little research on the date, and came up with this coincidence. Thought it was interesting.
