And if we are being visited by other beings what does that mean for our views of god.

Hi solid. I live in an isolated area. Two years ago as I was driving home I saw a large silver saucer hovering in the road in front of me. My car engine died and a bright blue light was aimed right at me. I couldn't move. I sat there for a while (later I realised it had been for ten minutes) and then the light went out and the ship just darted back up into the night sky. So, do I believe we are being visited? You bet I do!!

No, I don't believe we are being visited by extraterrestrials.
If another intelligent species went to all the trouble to come the vast distance from their home to our world, why would they sneak around and hide themselves? They'd be much more likely to land on the white house lawn (or in London or Tokyo or wherever), pop the hatch and give the old "we come in peace" speech. If they had the technology to bridge the vast distances of space, they wouldn't have anything to fear from us. There'd be no reason to sneak around or try (badly, if you believe the UFO nutcases) to do experiments on us in secret.
Do you realize how far it is to the nearest other star that may have planets around it? At LEAST 10 light-years, and most likely candidates for planets with life are in the 40-100 light-year distance range. Space is really big.
Absent real proof (not "abduction experiences"), there's no reason to believe we've ever been visited by extraterrestrials.

We could be, after all there are a million other gallxies with suns and planets. Who says there isn't one with human like people on it. They could be more advanced than us or less advanced. As for what impact that has on god, well, for me there is no god. I belive in evolution, or at least some portions of the theory. To me god, and the bible, is like a story. It makes people feel like there is hope in times of great sadness, and it also seems to set some moral rules, which there is nothing wrong with that, if people need a god, then they can have one.

I don't know. The universe is pretty big, so there's a good possibilty that there ARE other planets that can sustain life and have lifeforms that have the knowledge of space travel and have traveled to Earth.

its annoying to have faith we havent. The maximum useful evidence to me is the formation of pyramids and what seems to be a sphinx face on Mars. Even in the present day we dont own the technologies or potential to construct pyramids, not to point back in historical Egypt. Historians and scientists alike have not got any rationalization for them. comparable with Stonehenge.

Every animal on earth was mutated from water. That is a proven fact. We crawled out of the water a billion years ago.

I believe it is possible, but I also believe our preconceived opinion about them is wrong. Which GOD are you referring to? Each religion portrays a different view and opinion of the GOD they worship.

I think there are things going on here on earth that we don't understand or see but they happen. I think there are those who are sensitive enough to "see"... perhaps it's like FAITH, you either have it or you don't.
