UFO- Unidentified Flying Object. Yes I have seen a great many things flying that I couldn't identify. Were they extra-terrestrial in origin? No idea.
Aliens. I'm assuming you are asking about the E.T. variety and not the from another country variety. Yes I do believe in life on other worlds. It's almost a mathematical certainty, given the size of the universe. Have we ever been "visited" by them? Again,no idea.
Paranormal things. Some, not all. I've seen enough to know that some things are not easily explained by science or other so called "rational" means.

Defining the term "Believe" may change the whole picture of the question asked. If the question is : Have you heard about UFO?ALIENS? or Are you aware of the term UFO/Aliens?
These are different approach of asking about UFO/Alien but if the question is : Do I believe in them?
Well let me put a question across: Has anyone seen them? Answer is not
Anyone knows about them any thing? Answer is again not
People put their trust or they believe something of someone once they know about them/it. Without knowing how can you trust? Let me give an illustration: You purchase an air ticket and you are ready to travel. You gets into a taxi to drop you by the airport. You clears your luggage and Passport requirements. You walk down to the Air Strip to get into a plane. You see smiling Air Hostess welcomes you on board but at that time you noticed something unusual.
You find out that the Plane is very old model, paint is coming out, tyres are torn, fuel is leaking. You were shocked to see poor management. You will not board the plane. Any one who is in sound mind would not like to get into that.
Why????
Because you cant trust the plane that it can carry you till your destination.
In case of Aliens/UFO's we have no clue about them. No one so far could have said anything.
As a child we thought that Superman, Spiderman are real beings, but they are just cleaverly woven stories (animated) nothing else.
So is with UFO/Aliens nicely narrated stories which post modern mind wants to believe. But fact does not come because you say a nice story but FACT is FACT no matter how poorly it is said.
So there is no need to answer question whether we believe but question should be asked : What does it take to build a story that people believe to be true?

In the context you are asking the question the no.
If you are simply enquiring as to whether there is other life or sentient life in the entire universe then yes.
Seeing as no human being can keep a secret it is highly unlikely that an off world intelligence would be able to communicate let alone land a space ship on the planet without it being gossiped about.
Also considering that the requirements for carbon based life forms such as ourselves to evolve on a planetoid, the likeliness of such a planet being within a distance that is reachable at sub light travel is extremely low and considering the technological level that will have to be reached for faster the light travel that still does not take years it is highly unlikely that any sentinent lifeform that may exist has yet to reach that milestone.

yes, I have seen a UFO really close up before, as for if it was a alien craft? well I don't know they didn't come out of it lol
but yes just look up at the sky at night, all them stars, has to be something out there, don't know if they are here or not but I am sure they are out there.
some may say its imposable for them to be here, well you know we went from no powered flight to the moon in like what? 50 years or so? give them even a 100 year head start on flight and they might have come up with a way to travel that far. breaking the speed of sound was once though to be impossible too, just like powered flight was though to be for a long time.

Yes. space is too vast for other life not to exist. However, if you imagine something, its based on what we have seen, mixed into something new, to get an imaginary object. You cannot possibly imagine, what you havent seen, so the definition of life may be unfathomly different, to green men. The distances, of life occuring, based on simply odds, of suitable planets, are astronomical, even at the speed of light. Take the evolution on earth since dinasaurs. This much change would have happened to the home planet, of an alien, travelling to earth at light speed from the nearest available, random Enogh planet. He would have nothing to go back to...so a parasitic, travelling "grazing" life form, is most likely, not a friendly traveller, who "reports back".
However, this may already have happened in terms of new viruses, attatched to comet tails, from deep space, entering the atmosphere. See what i mean about "life"? Or a space rock may be alive..just move and respire so unfeasibly slowly, by our standards, its a rock. to the rock, were a blurr, it cant even see.
Life may exist not in fancily called "dimentions" or "time frames" but simply at different, Very different speeds..invisible to our seeing spectrum. Why dont we crash int them, if theyre "here"..well, you move out the way of a car, and thats in the same time frame, to a high speed life form, WE are the rocks!!

UFOs? Aliens? I don't know... I'm not sure about all that Roswell, Area 51 stuff... But I don't believe we are the only life forms in exsistence. I'm sure there are planets with beings far more advanced than us, and likewise, I'm sure there are planets where we are the far more advanced superior beings.

Aliens huh?
Since we can speak and debate about one thing, it means it exist.....
The official answer answer and position is to deny their existence, wich by itself make me belive they exist. I have a tendendy to belive that governments peoples are nothing but a bunch of liars. I dunno why I think that way tho. :P
My personnal position is to belive in themm mostly because even humanity is a mistake, it cannot be the only one of the universe.
But second because it's now a facts that there is life out there as scientists have discovered frozen cells/embryos/parasites that do not require sunlight or oxygen in the ice/ocean of one of Jupiter's moon, Europa is the name. So small might be theses living "things", they are alive and not from Earth......
see first link below
This web site is from 1997 and I am still looking for the (serious and scientific) link where I have read about thoses sun and oxygen free living creatures. Here, got it.....quote:
"Europa's orbital path around Jupiter lies deep within this powerful magnetic field, so it receives a continuous barrage of electrified particles or ions.
According to Chyba, when these ions slam into the icy surface of the moon, chemical reactions are likely to occur, transforming frozen molecules of water and carbon dioxide into new organic compounds such as formaldehyde.
It turns out that one of the most common bacteria on Earth, Hyphomicrobium, survives on formaldehyde as its sole source of carbon, and Chyba believes that similar formaldehyde-feeding microbes could be alive and swimming in Europa's subsurface ocean."
see second link below
End of quote.
Your turn to make your mind.
