Do you believe in aliens?


I believe, due to the show Unsolved Mysteries. People genuinely have had encounters, and Roswell as well.

Of course. Believing the earth is the only place in the ever-expanding universe to hold life is just ignorant. Also I've seen at least 2 unidentified flying objects. There is no question.

Could there is some form of life somewhere in the universe? Probably. Do I believe aliens have visited earth? No. But this thread reminds me of the so called true story movie "Fire in the Sky". Its about some loggers in Arizona seeing a UFO. One of the men gets out of the truck and disappears for 5 days. He then tells of be abducted.

After watching the movie my take was 5 or 6 loggers got drunk and made the whole thing up.

I don't understand why ETs visiting earth is so hard to believe. I am not conflicted in this belief in any way. Fire in the Sky guys totally made it up.

Scary movie. Must have been 5 or 6 when I saw it. It was actually based on the guys book.

What astounds me is that Walton and the loggers all passed polygraph tests, except for one who's was inconclusive. The local police also said the men were distraught, two of them in tears and "that if they were acting, they were awfully good at it."

Now I'm not saying I believe this, but it makes you think.

Not the first time they took the polygraph tests. They all ended up passing the tests but only after taking it again. I think it was just some guys out drinking looking for some fun so they made the whole thing up.

Why would you believe because of Unsolved Mysteries?

The title of the show itself makes it clear...unsolved.

How can you come to the conclusion aliens exist based on a show like that?

reply

The title doesn't mean that every story had no factual basis. They did catch killers featured on this show. The 'update' section was great. Viewers had dobbed in people they saw on tv, some who had been in hiding for years.

FYI, the Robert Stack episodes are back on youtube.

reply

hell yeah.

reply

Yes.
Why?
They found water on Mars and I have reasons to suspect NASA is hiding some things.

reply

I believe that they believe we exist.

I would hope that humans on earth are not the only life in the universe. Wonder if they would looks like earthlings, or totally different as in sci-fi movies?

reply

The "Star Trek" universe rationalizes that a lot of species look humanoid, walk up-right, mostly mammals and are warm-blooded, including similar features like you mention through convergent evolution. A process in which creatures develop independently of each other, which would explain why some things will look the same but different at the same time.

Used to believe in Roswell. Now I think it's possible that the guy who found the wreck originally misidentified it. As I get older I've lost faith in humanity to the point that I can believe that the people involved early on were really that incompetent.

I believe in aliens. I'd give 50/50 odds that they've actually visited us at some point. And that's just a guess. I'm not basing it on any hard science.
