Do you believe that aliens have visited the Earth?

Why or why not?

I dont think they've visited Earth, but I do believe in them.  A great line from the movie Contact (based on Carl Sagan) is "If there isnt life out there, that's an awful lot of space to waste."  We have only begun to explore the vast regions of space near Earth, there is no telling what is out there.

I think there is likely life on other planets.
I am skeptic about alien abductions, sightings, and visits.


Bit off topic but:
My only alien dream, well my only nightmare really, happened two or three times, back when I was a kid.
Very short. I open the front door and look towards the kitchen and there's such a bright white light that I can't make out anything but my grandmother - who has an alien face and an elongated neck (sorta like certain African/Asian tribes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neck_ring).
I then wake up.
After I had it a couple times, I told my twin sister. She said she'd had the same dream, only she was standing in our bedroom door! (which opens up onto the kitchen)

Big green guys who fly saucer shaped UFOs?  Not at all.  Nothing more than fiction out of Hollywood.

Do I believe there is life elsewhere in the universe?  Most likely, given the sheer odds and the fact that it happened once that we know of (Earth).

Do I believe we'll ever make contact with them?  Probably not.

Do I believe they've visited Earth?  No.  I see no reason to believe that.

no, "they" prefer the term indigenous.
How can you be an immigrant to a place where you have always been?

Note however that a lot of our neighbors to the south have no indigenous ancestry and are descended from an occupying force,there for no legitimate claim to territories north of your border.

Its highly unlikely that this is the only planet in the entire universe that has intelligent life on it.

However, given the theory of relativity stating that its impossible to achieve the speed of light, and the overall size of the universe, and how far away the nearest intelligent life even is, I doubt that we as a species will EVER make contact with another life form.  We will probably kill ourselves first when some country tests a new weapon and accidentally blows up the entire planet.

UFO sightings?  Abductions?  I'm highly skeptical.

Yes.
Because God help us if we're the only ones here.

"And better pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space because its bugger all down here on Earth."

i believe they exist, and yes have most likely been on or are on this planet

for those of you that don't believe it is possible that intelligent life exists and possibly exceeds are own somewhere out there

watch this video

http://www.thatvideosite.com/video/the_known_universe

the sheer permutations for the arrangements of atoms that would allow for life should exist on multiple planets throughout the universe (imho)

There are many stories of "The Great Sky Vault" that the Ancestors passed down.

Are they true?

This subject is kinda like how I have been taught about dreams, it is up to everyone to find their own truth.
