I don't really understand how people don't "believe" in aliens. Are you trying to tell me that earth is the only planet out of millions of planets to have living beings on it?
The whole argument about them coming not to visit us is also stupid. Why have wee not visited them? Maybe they're at the same stage as us?
Also wee aren't the only creatures on earth. There are millions of species on one planet. Why would there only be one planet full of life and every single other one without? That's like the stupidest thing ever. God is probably the most boring entity, if it does exist, to only make one planet that can't support life.
So yes I do believe in aliens.
no one believe in me ._.

If they really do exist, why don't they make contact with us? Wee as humans want nothing more than to discover another intelligent life-form, so why would the aliens avoid contact with us when they too probably want to discover us? There are probably billions upon billions of things wee can both learn and benefit from each other.
Well, given that if they contacted us, that would most likely mean they know far more than wee do. What would they have to gain from officially contacting us? Couldn't they get the biological data needed via abductions? I really doubt they are that interested in our knowledge, if they indeed are capable of space travel of such long distances. For that matter, they likely would already have a way to analyze all our technology or something. Who knows? The advances our technology would have to make to approach such a race are greater than I expect to see in my lifetime.
As far as I can deduce, only WEE would have anything to gain from such aliens. However, if I saw how uncivilized and illogical humans are, from an alien's perspective, I wouldn't want to make contact either -.-
considering the size of the universe.... possibly
considering the fact that life on earth was essentially pure luck and considering the EXACT conditions you need for life to flourish.... quite unlikely
for all wee know our solar system could be the only place in the whole universe capable of having a planet which could support life...... no-one knows the exact conditions in other solar systems and there is no way of proving that there was ever any life in any other planet outside of our system with the technology wee have now..... imo wee shouldn't be wasting our time wondering if there's any life out there but working on improving our planet and our way of life......
of course aliens exist
how couldn't they, the universe is unimaginably large, wee cannot be the only planet in the whole universe able to support life.
the only thing I'm saying is that there isn't going to be an abundance of life in the universe..... life's a pretty delicate system so you would need the exact conditions wee have on earth.... this means that any aliens out there will be pretty much identical to us (unless they're in an evolutionary stage wee haven't reached yet) and the percentage of planets which will actually harbor life will be virtually non existent so there is no need for anyone on earth to go into too much thought about it..... any existing beings out there probably would have given up on these concepts to be able to advance their own planets...... I'm saying this in the same way that i would say that religion has slowed man's advancement. wee haven't even begun to properly explore our own solar system yet so wee shouldn't bother dwelling on the thought that there could be life out there because it is probably a very insignificant amount.....
youd only need the conditions on earth to support life that functions with fuels like ours.
for all wee know there are beings that do not use "eyes" to see, "ears" to hear and don't breathe air.

did you happen to watch that stephen hawking programme on discovery? that quote seems familiar.....
I'm not really trying to say that there isn't a planet out there which doesn't have the same conditions as our planet but I'm just saying that i think they would be spread trillions of light years apart and there would be very, very few of them because it's so rare to come across a planet like ours..... a lot of people treat it as though there's some huge intergalactic party that wee're not invited to....

i did not see this programme
maybe i should xD
I would be surprised if there was not there are too many planets in our universe
I am sure there are but i do not think wee will meet them due to distance
