(poll) do you believe in aliens?

there are millions of galaxies in the known universe, each galaxy containing something around billions of selective star systems, with anywere from 1-10 planets each. and yet we are still finding out things about our own planet that we never even knew were possible before. question is, do you believe in extra-terrestrial life?

Why would anyone vote no?
Better question is;
Do you think they will try and contact us

No, I don't. If life is at all common then we must be pretty late to the scene, what about ~14 billion years for the age of the universe and 4.5 billion or so for Earth. It's been estimated that it would only take about 100,000,000 years to colonize an entire galaxy from a single planet. That's a blink of an eye compared to the age of the universe.

So if life were at all common, it should be everywhere by now.

what if where lied too and there isnt such facts about the galaxy?

I don't believe in aliens.. I think it's just some science fiction crap people have put into our heads and all these UFO's that people are supposedly seeing are just space stuff like stars coming into the atmosphere.

[QUOTE="blackngold29"]Try this: There are more stars in the sky than there are grains of sand on the earth. Some have planets revolving around them. That's an extremely high chance of a yes. And for the record I believe they've been here and the government is covering them up.jaydough

In all likely hood life has existed/does exist somewhere else in the universe. Whether or not intelligent life has contacted us is another story

We could play that game, but it would be just that: a game. The fact is, we have aboslutely NO evidence of aliens, and until such exists belief in alien life forms is simply hypothetical.

[QUOTE="jaydough"][QUOTE="carrot-cake"]
Well it makes sense why the government would do it. Do you know what kind of chaos would be produced if the government was to admit that aliens did exsit? Do you know how many ancient things would be put into question? First and foremost, religion.

What if we are a product of a colonization of a planet?
WHAT IF WE ARE ALL AN EXPERIMENT!?
NOW WHAT!?
We can play the what if game allll night. Thats what started this thread anywayblackngold29

well, theres that whole thing about NASA finding bacteria on mars. yes im serious they actually confirmed that there is/was bacteria on mars. Theres also the millions of eyewitness accounts of mass ufo sightings (like the pheonix lights, a ufo sighting in which the entire city of Pheonix, Arizona witnessed large lights in the night sky flying in some kind of formation.) in cities all over the world.

Id call that good enough evidence.

I'm not sure which is more improbable. Human's that developed time travel and were dumb enough to be seen, or aliens from lightyears away that are dumb enough to be seen.

I've been following SETI and all things NASA since the early 80's. The only 'evidence' we have is the 'WOW signal' and that's just as likely to be an anamoly.

religion isnt an issue necessarily. there is plenty of things in the bible that makes you wonder if UFOs were involved. jesus himself even said "in my fathers mansion there are many rooms." this could allude to life elsewere in the universe.

NASA gets its funding from the Govt, if NASA would happen to find Alien life (Which Im sure they have), and if the Government doesnt want us to know then the Govt could easily threaten to pull their funding, which would make everything NASA has worked for nearly useless.

Edit- Also, could you link whatever about the WOW Signal? Ive never heard of it :(

The didn't confirm it, they simply speculated and put it out there for scientific review. Under scientific review, it was determined that what was in the metorite was not bacterial in nature. Here's the story.

[QUOTE="br0kenrabbit"]

[QUOTE="Morning_Revival"] There is plenty of evidence. Do research before you say such things.
