Now, does anyone here believe in aliens? I really don't know. I'm just curious to know if ya'll do.

Now, before you say so stupidly that religion comes in conflict with Extra terrestrial, You're wrong. No where in The Bible, Torah, or Qur'an does there say that there ARE or ARE NOT any aliens. So the choice is up to you.

[Sea of Time]

Izar, thank you for all these great topics. You are a god.

Aliens are real because how can we be the only ones out there in a universe so big? Surely there is other lifeforms out there somewhere.

[Andross]

If we are talking in general extraterrestial lifeforms, as in sentient and non-sentient beings, there is an extremely high likely-hood that some other type of organism (single celled or otherwise) exists somewhere. Even if the chances for life are miniscule, the universe is so incomprehensibly large that there is at least a chance that there is some sort of life out there.

When it comes to strictly sentient beings (organisms with developed organs, and thought processes similar to humans), there is still a chance. I would think that they could exist (again, it's a seemingly infinite universe), but as to whether or not we'll ever confirm such questions...well, that's an entirely different subject.

[Izar]

I really meant Intelligent. I know there has to be bacteria and such out there, but what I mean is UFO-Flying ETs. (That's the part I am unsure about)

And no, it's the same subject, this topic has everthing to do with anything extra-terrestial, other wise I would have stated differently.

Sea of Time... Did you just call me a god? :P No, not close. :P

[Andross]

I was referring to deep space travel and civilization types - that strays quite far from the subject at hand.

As for if aliens will come flying to our doorstep and say 'Y HELO THAR!' ?
Eh, doubtable. As for sentient life other than ourselves existing? Fairly plausible.

[Someone Else]

Intelligent life? It's possible, but we don't have proof as far as I know. :P

I think that alien "animals" are out there, for sure. As far as intelligent life as smart or just as smart as us, it could be out there... somewhere...

[Blue]

I don't think aliens exist. No real reason, I just don't believe in them.

[Luna]

I firmly believe aliens exist :D

As for UFO's... I like to believe their appearances have been real but eh... It's highly unlikely.

[gsninja]

I'm not really so sure that other life forms exist, such as sentient beings, as Andross said. I'm more towards thinking there are other life forms in the universe. Think about it; the universe is way bigger than we can comprehend it to be, so there's a rather good chance of other beings that exist out there ^.^

[I'm Always BROKE]

Ofcoarse aliens do excist. But not in our solar system. There are countless uniserses and why would Earth be the only place where could be live?

[TheEnglishman]

I suppose that it could be possible that aliens exist but I doubt that we would ever find out. If they are real then it could be that they so far away that we'd never meet them.

[Ravenblade]

Bearing in mind that we're pretty damn sure there arent any aliens in our Solar System - I think it highly unlikely that we will ever encounter any. The next nearest system is Sirius and thats 4 lightyears away isnt it? That means it would take any aliens 4 years to reach us, assuming they were travelling at light speed which isnt meant to be possible. So therefore it would take longer...

I do believe in aliens, but seeing as we're on the edge of our galaxy and nowhere near the centre - if any are capable of making contact with us, they certainly arent likely to treck all they way out here are they?

Eh, who really knows though..

Meh, figuratively speaking.

As for UFO's, i think if aliens exist, then UFO's probably exist too.

[MysticWarrior]

The universe is like, infinitely huge. If humans can develop, why can't any other bactera life form across the universe? I believe that aliens exist, but I still doubt that they have UFOs and can visit our planet and bring universal peace, and all that jazz.

[el_Sethro]

for life to exist, you need a planet in the perfect orbit around its sun, so that it's not too hot, nor too cold. you need water, obviously, as well as an atmosphere. the odds of all those things appearing in a planet are very slim, but then agin, the universe is awfully big. I think there most likely is extraterrestrial life out there somewhere, but not necissarily sentient life. obviously it's nothing like Star Trek, where there are hundreds of species, who are all not only intelligent, but also humanoid, and just so happen to speak english. Most likely, the life is unintelligent, and lightyears away, as well as pretty sparce. But what with the vastness of space, I doubt we're the only ones.

ET's? yes.
Little Green Men? no.

[Sea of Time]

I agree, I think little green men are a stereotype that we drew up when we thought of aliens.

Does anyone believe in close encounters? Do you think that anyone on this planet could have come in contact with an alien?

[theblueflames]

I don't think so. Unless Uranus somehow houses life that we don't know about...*cough*. They say there could be water on Uranus, which is always a good thing ;). I think it would be hard to go inbetween Solar Systems anyways, and alot of people think that each star is a sun for it's own solar systerms. Which makes you think of how big it is.

I can say this


I believe aliens exist, thus...kinda confusing the whole concept of us being created in Gods image. Correct?

[Izar]

Encounter of the First Kind = Encounter with a flying saucer, I.E., you see it in the sky.

Encounter of the Second kind = Coming in contact with stuff left behind aliens, , for instance, Crop Circles(Puh-leze).

Encounter of the Third Kind = Coming in contact with actual intellegent beings. Probing, Semenal Extraction, etc falls into this catagory.

Thought you'd want to know that, lol.

And i alreadt said, phantom, taht Aliens HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BIBLE and DO NOT CONFLICT WITH IT HENCE. The bible does not talk about aliens, so they can or can't be true.(in my opinion).

[Kewne]

I'm sure aliens exist. But for UFOs I'm not that sure. But I've seen a video that seemed to prove UFOs, a person had filmed two balls of light making a crop circle. that was cool. The link showes you it(not very good quality)

The movie

[Elliott]

Dunno. The universe is just too massive to say for sure that they don't exist. Sure we know a lot about about our own planet. But what of the trillions of planets outside our solar system? Do they all just exist to fill up the night sky? I think not. There must be life out there, but I couldn't say 100% sure if there was or not, for obvious reasons.

[Sea of Time]

There are people who say that we are the only living beings in the universe, what would you say to them?

Dude you missed my point, God created us in his image in the catholic belief correct?


So if something else did exist that was of a living organism that can interact with us etc. what does that make them? Surely they will have their own religion with different rules, who knows, maybe thier religion states that they were infact created in the image of God. Now, I know youll post some bold as in [/b] in anger towards me, and thats fine. But does not answer the question I am asking you, or rather trying to hint around.

[Eugine]

Since God never mentioned it in the Bible, you can't really say. You never know if God actually created them and gave them the Bible also. PLUS, no one saw aliens anyways so w/e

[Izar]

Phantom, I can hardly understand what you are saying.

Now, I found something in the Bible that does hint towards aliens.

Ezekial 1:4 - 1:24 does hint at the possibility, though many say taht it is not for sure.

The universe is a big thing, now, if we do find other beings, that doesn't mean that they will follow a completely different religion. What if they brought a religion that said they were to find "the species created in God's image" or something?

[Platinum Sun]

My personal belief is that there are aleins. I mean, the universe is gigantic on scales that our tiny minds struggle to quantify, if we're the only life in it, then someone is playing one heck of a joke on us. Now the twist, do I believe that such aleins would waste their precious time (which they, through their advancement, have actually learned the valuse of) going to visit a piteous dirtball like earth? absolutely not. And even if they have, they're not coming back. Seroiusly, look at the people they find when they get here. They're all toothless rednecks wearing overalls and nothing else. Man, we could be the Alabama of the galaxy and not even know it. Aleins would be like "oh, yeah, I've been to Earth, seroiusly don't go there. Don't even stop for gas at that place. If you run out just keep pushing your ship right past that dump. It's worth the 2.6 light-years to Alpha Centauri."

I think this calls for a big wtf @ that


wtf @ that?

[Eugine]

Platinum Sun... Wow.

*CLAPS* *CLAPS* x 10.

LOL.

Maybe your right, but I more found your post as a joke rather than serious.

[Jai]

Aliens huh? hmmmm well in in theory if the universe is limitless then im pretty sure the possibilty of higher intelligence is extremely high so reasoning with that, why havent they came in contact with us yet ? im nean lets be real here considering how long the planet earth has been around and especially how long the universe has been around im pretty sure some kind of species with more advance technology than ours should have came in contact with us a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay long time ago if not that at least by now, but yet no sign of other life at all............... none, hmm kinda makes ya think huh?

[Izar]

Higher intellegence, most likely. I think humanity is incredibly stupid. No offense to anyone, but we are. If there are other species out there, and they have reached us, and we have barely even gotten men to the moon, then we are pretty dumb.

And the Patrick Wilson Crop circle movie, I saw that on the History Channel, lol, and when it's full, it's looks a bit fake.

[Lightning Star]

I personally do not believe in Aliens just because every time somoeone says they've seen one, or they've "found" one, its turned out to be disproved or a hoax. No one has given me evidence, So I don't really believe in them.

[Sea of Time]

There was one time where half of Europe's radio was cut out and this message from extraterrestrials aired. They said stuff about how they had been watching us and they warned us about nuclear war and stuff like that. It's hard to believe that was a hoax.

[kandy man]

Woow.....interesting......did that really happen? or are you just joking? B)
