Misc What is your stance on aliens? - Page 19

mr. tegu · 05-30-2015, 07:46 PM

I am curious to see where everyone stands on this. Asking about a stance on UFOs could be a different topic with different options so feel to give your thoughts on that as well.

Now if somebody were to report seeing something MORE than a light in the sky, that would be a different matter altogether. If somebody said "Hey, I saw the spaceship! I saw the aliens!", it's an entirely different conversation. Then it would be all about details and credibility, not leaping to a fantastic and far-fetched conclusion.

What if the aliens' manifestation on earth is just a light in the sky? That would pretty much blow your otherwise strong decision rules.

How about the Creed stance. Or maybe one of these.

The Captain has got it down.

If the probe isn't too big and they would give me a tour of the ship afterwards, and maybe a group photo, I'd probably let them do it for free. I'm not saying I would enjoy it, but it seems to be a relatively small price to pay.

Oh, you're saying you'd enjoy it alright

More women need to think like you.

**Rain Man** · 06-03-2015, 02:14 PM

I'm wondering if this would be a good poll now. Would you take an alien anal probe in exchange for a tour of the ship and a group photo? I bet most thoughtful people would do it.

They did at one time, then they figured out they can be paid for it

Have you ever tried offering them a tour of your ship and a group photo?

Only if the probe is made of inorganic material. No living tissue.

Good point. I'll specify that.

Dude, if I had a group photo like that, I would've been posted long ago

1 Does alien life exist? Pretty much as close to a mathematical certainty as can be.

2 Does intelligent Alien life exist 1 % less than #1

3 Does Alien intelligent life exist with the capacity to travel to Earth and the desire to do so? , Now were getting kind of iffy.

We could have a hundred thousand planets inhabited by beings smart enough to figure out how to go 1000 times the speed of light and we would still be much too far away for them to get here. A great many things could be explained if little green men have and continue to visit. It is a fascination idea that I tend to believe probably because I want to
