Who here believes in space aliens?

My thought has always been that the universe is far too large to not contain any other intelligent life besides us (although it seems rather scarce here). But I'm curious as to the belief of alien life compared to religious preference.

Have at it,

    The Universe is HUGE. There are billions of planets just like Earth in our galaxy alone. The probability of intelligent life out there somewhere is as close to one hundred percent as any probability can be.

    I certainly believe there is other intelligent life out there someplace; as you point out, existence is too large for the odds to fall any other way.

    I'm a Reform Jew who also practices/includes some aspects of pagan and Native American thought in my beliefs.

    (although it seems rather scarce here)

    Raccoons are breaking into cars frequently.

    We know dolphins and whales have a complex launguge with personal names, even though we don't understand it.

    Monkeys are comitting premeditated acts of vengance.

    Rats are showing signs of tool usage.

    With this much intelligence, relitive to the amount of space we know nothing about, it's fairly likely.

    im mostly ok with the idea.

    but fraud and hoaxes are known to exist

    the book of urantia itself is a book that describes the possibility of extraterrestrial races that live and exist on other worlds. according to its pages, the true story of genesis, and the description of these other worlds also has an entire galaxy called Satanica.

    if any of it is true. there is strong believability the answer is yes.

    There probably are aliens. It's probably impossible for Earth to be the only star with actual life on it.

    I believe that there might be another form of life besides us. I don't think 'aliens' would be the right word though, because it might just be bacteria...and bacteria does live. I think this because, we are not very smart, there must be something smarter than us....

    In the inconceivably massive cosmos there are people who think earth is the only planet with life? Idiocy. Sheer idiocy.

    For all we know there may be another race out there because the universe is so vast and ever expanding we'll never truly know.

    Aliens are not from space. How did you come to this conclusion?

  • 1 decade ago

    I don't believe in intelligent lifeform out there. And even if there is, it would be so far away from us that it would never ever affect us at all.
