Do you believe in aliens?

[Fate Flyer]

This is just a poll to see how many do and how many don't. If you'd like to discuss this further or debate it, please use this thread.

I very much do believe in extraterrestrial life.

[Kathryn Lacey]

I believe that aliens exist, and I do believe that a few have visited our planet, but not many.

[KineticAsparagus]

Erm... I couldn't pick an option because while I believe it arrogant to assume that in a universe as enormous as this (and anything beyond it) our planet is the only one with life, I have no bloody clue whether they've popped by to say hello or not xD I don't believe in things like alien abduction or the crop circles "phenomenon". But they might be here, who knows?

[Ragter the junior greeter]

Meh...probably are aliens out there somewhere..as for them visiting Earth? Probably not...it'd be pretty hard to locate a single planet with intelligent life like ours out of billions of planets.

I do believe in aliens; I see no reason why they would expend precious technology and resources to come to an inferior planet such as ours. We could never contribute anything good to them, except maybe as target practice. They couldn't even eat us, if they wanted to...we aren't healthy.

Also, I watched District 9 last night, so this pertains to my interest. :3 GO SEE IT

They couldn't even eat us, if they wanted to...we aren't healthy.

According to this Dulce report, that is something they use us for.... ...along with our DNA and our planet's magnets, according to various online documents.

I believe in spirits, and I also think government conspiracies are part of the story. ^_^

[Gadreille]

I can't vote, because my belief system is not up there.

Yes, I believe aliens do exist and may possibly have also visited our planet, on the condition that they did not directly influence the rise of civilization and technology in humanity at the time of their visitation.

As a person who is extremely interested in humans of the past, I find it insulting that some of the general population puts so much doubt in self-discovery that they say aliens must have done it for them (them as in Egyptians, Mayans, and whoever else this excuse is being used on).

[ACK!]

I do believe in them... As for whether or not they have visited... I'm still on the fence about that.

Watch out for 2012. 8|;;

Of course I believe in aliens. We are a very ethnocentric and xenophobic species for so many of us to have believed, for so long, that we are the only life in the universe. Of course there is other life out there. There may very well be other life in our own solar system, though not sentient like ourselves. I love Stephen Baxter's books for his description of life in our solar system in the short story: "And everywhere the Humans went, they found life..." in Vacuum Diagrams.

It is beyond doubt that that there is other sentient life out there in the universe. It defies all logic to claim that there is not. However, I do not believe that we have been visited by aliens here on Earth. Not during any time in which we have been advanced enough to shape our own destinies. Who knows what happened in prehistoric times.

Edit: Sorry for thread necromancy, but I really wanted to throw my opinion out on the topic

[IWroteASongForYou]

Yes, I think it's ridiculously to believe some sort of life doesn't exist somewhere out there. However I don't think it's ever visited this planet, though obviously this planet has been around for billions of years, so one can't be absolutely positively sure.

[Fallacy]

Do aliens exist? Yeah, probably. Have they visited Earth? No. If you believe they have, sorry, but you're crazy. Most people are crazy though.

[Dax]

I don't really like spending time watching documentaries/talking about this because I think it really brings out the WACKO! out in some people, no offense intended.

Then again, I do believe aliens exist. You have to be very close-minded or pessimistic to believe that we are the only ones out there.

Although I do think that all those conspiracy theories about government secrets, etc., is total rubbish.

[chipmunks]

Yes I do believe alien exist. Because there are number of galaxies in our universe so another human being can exist in another planet.
