Do you believe in UFOs?

Doug5984 · 04-29-2010, 05:56 PM

Well do you?

Doug5984 · 04-29-2010, 05:59 PM

I was searching in google to find when the air-show was coming to town again and it pulled up a thread on another message board about someone getting a video of a UFO at our local air-show a few years back. I watched it, pretty cool- just not sure I believe in them.

I think there is intelligent life somewhere in the universe, not in our solar system, but have they visited earth? I don't know - I doubt it...

One person said there was a UFO base in the gulf of mexico and thats why there are a lot of sighting around Louisiana / Alabama- to me thats just crazy talk.

I believe there is probably life out there somewhere. Though I also think that, given the different conditions it would have been forged in, we might not recognise it as life, or even as intelligent.

This is a hard one to answer. I believe that we aren't alone in the universe. But I don't know if I believe that flying saucers have flown around our atmosphere.

this.

As to those picking on "unidentified", I went with what I believed to be the spirit of the question -- where "unidentified" refers to vessels from an alien world. I think there is likely to be life somewhere in the universe, but I don't think they have visited Earth.

Wikipedia seems to agree with me...
"The term UFO is popularly taken as a synonym for alien spacecraft and generally most discussions of UFOs revolve around this presumption."

But basically I meant anything not a bug or a smudge on a camera lens- mostly extraterrestrial objects, but even some of the super high tech top secret government weapons.

Do you believe in magic?

You know, in a young girl's heart?

I know there are lots of unidentified flying objects, but I don't think any of them were alien spacecraft.

However I do believe that there is life out there, in fact I'm sure there is a lot of life out there just in our galaxy. Some of that life is undoubtedly completely foreign to us, so much so that we could hardly understand it. There could be life out there that is so strange that it defies what we believe is needed to support life. i.e., doesn't need water to survive. There could be life living in a gas giant or something too.

And somewhere out there in the universe I'm also sure is intelligent life.

I'm also sure they haven't taken a vacation to Earth yet.

I do believe UFO's and ET's exist. Benevolent races wouldn't meddle with us anyway. Its the ones that think like we do, that we have to worry about.
