Ooh! I'm jumping in it now! UFO's?

I was actually TALKING WITH a group of astro-physicists, (YES I WAS!) I asked them if they believed in extra-terrestials. They told me they wouldn't be very good scientists if they didn't believe that. I asked if they had ever SEEN ONE? They were not telling me something. They kept looking at each other and were biting the bit to tell me something, but they avoided answering directly.
 

If you could take a smart phone back in time, they wouldn't have a clue of how it works.

Even if the climate doesn't kill us, we are using up resources at an alarming rate.

LOL Don, I just bought my very first smartphone (I was tired of being called a Dinosaur), and I'm still learning how to use it.

When I see movies about the future, most of them are bleak scenes of smoggy skies and dark buildings and no green plants anywhere and the human race is even more intent on annihilating each other. I LOVE sci-fi, but those movies totally depress me.

I'm sure they know a LOT more than they're telling us. Can you blame them? Look at the panic that the Coronavirus is causing, can you imagine people finding out that we're being invaded or even just being watched by aliens? No matter how much they deny it, I think there's more to Area 51 in Nevada than they're willing to tell us.
 

there's a series of folks constantly 'pulling my leg'.

Yes, I agree with Avid. I'm sure I was saved from possible death 5 yr. ago by my guardian angel. (I've already written about this before,, so I won't repeat.)

And if we used the definition of extra-terrestrial to be: originating, existing, or occurring outside the earth or its atmosphere.

then we would have to include Jesus who Himself said: “I am not of this world…. “
There is no doubt that Jesus existed, as attested by historians of old, such as Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, Josephus, Lucian, writings in the Babylonian Talmud, and others.

One has to admit this, whether or not one is Christian.

So, yes we have been visited by extra-terrestrials.
 
If I witnessed something like that, I'd believe it, but not until then. I am open minded about it.
My dad & I were watching an interview on TV with Muhammad Ali. He was asked if he believes in UFO's. He said, "Yes, I've seen UFO's many times." My dad said, "Yeah, so would I if I was hit by Joe Frazier."

LOL.
 
There is so much evidence of a high-functioning civilization from ancient times, and some of the pictures, drawings, and carvings certainly look like some kind of astronauts, or someone from space.
I agree with @exwisehe , that the Bible indicates that Jesus and angels come from somewhere besides earth, and it makes sense to me that people would consider any kind of person who arrived on earth from the sky to be a God.

Here is another interesting photo, which shows some sort of an ancient “drawing” on the desert in Australia, and it is one of those that is several miles long, and can only really be seen and identified from in the air.
The Nazca Lines in Peru are a similar kind of thing, and there are a lot of strange pictures in the Nazca Lines.

I like to think we've not only been visited, but get visited on a regular basis.

Unfortunately, until I see solid, credible evidence of it, I will remain a doubter.

I certainly believe life exists in/on other worlds, though.
 
I 'm purposely asking this as a question to avoid condemnation. I'm interested in YOUR beliefs! Do you believe in the existence of extra-terrestial beings?
Do I believe? Well, I don’t think I do.
 
It seems to me that many people will believe the most outrageous things if it's something they want to believe. And, there will always be some who will take advantage of that for personal gain.

I saw a program about that figure in Australia and it was found to be of recent origin. The Nazca lines are ancient, but why would an advanced civilization bother to make them?

There are astrological signs etched in the hills surrounding Glastonbury, England. Their origins are also unknown.
 
Well, it's like this. I have never seen any aliens except in silly Hollywood flicks. However, the universe is so big that there is a very strong case for thinking that there might be life out there. They would be different from us but again, the universe is pretty big.

My beliefs, as I've seen everything in life...haha...there could be extra-terrestials...I guess anything is likely...sometimes I think we may have been cultivated by them and they are sitting back laughing at us all..or crying...:(;):cool::p:sneaky:

It's amazing they could do it since they couldn't see the shapes they were etching unless seen from the sky. There are also mounds here in the US, in Ohio, The Serpent Mound.

We don't give ancient people enough credit. They were just as intelligent as us, maybe more so. It's been found that average brain size has actually shrunk over the past few thousand years. Think of the first person who figured out how to make fire by rubbing sticks together. That took some brilliance. Genius wasn't invented with Einstein.

Don
 
Many scientists will at least privately profess a belief that intelligent alien life exists in the universe somewhere. That life may not look like us, or be what we expect. As to when we will contact such life or they us (perhaps via radio waves or other transmissions), I've heard a time frame mentioned of perhaps within thirty years...
I once attended a lecture on this subject where the speaker said that if we ever did actually encounter another intelligent life form it would tell us that our own ability to survive without self destructing was much higher than it appears to us today, I want to believe that he is correct.
 
What I refuse to believe is UFO crashes. Here's why, does it make sense a living organism has the technical know how to travel millions of light years to get here only to crash when they arrive?! On the reason to perhaps believe is it does not take super advanced technology to be invisible on our radar as we do that now with our aircrafts. Then there is this issue from an article below:
On its other major goal, Seti@home has been less successful: after 20 years of looking, the project has not yet found
any signs of intelligent life.

HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Intro)

Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of
the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded
yellow sun.

Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles
is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-
descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still
think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.

This planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most
of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time.
Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these
were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces
of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small
green pieces of paper that were unhappy.

And so the problem remained; lots of the people were mean, and
most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches.
Many were increasingly of the opinion that they'd all made a big
mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And
some suggested that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no
one should ever have left the oceans.

Then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man
had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be
nice to people for a change, a girl sitting on her own in a
small cafe in Rickmansworth England suddenly realized what it was that
had been going wrong all this time, and she finally knew how the
world could be made a good and happy place. This time it was
right, it would work, and no one would have to get nailed to
anything.

Sadly, however, before she could get to a telephone to tell anyone
about it, a terribly stupid catastrophe occurred, and the idea
was lost forever.

This is not her story.
