Yes. I know I saw a UFO, whether or not it was an alien space craft, who knows, but it was something I've never seen before. It looked like a silvery hovering balloon, I pulled over on the interstate (along with several other cars!) to check it out and *poof* it was gone!
Also, to quote the movie Contact: If it's just us, that seems like a whole lot of wasted space!

Do I believe aliens ... well, I have never had an alien tell me anything ... so I can't say that I would believe them or not ... but if an alien did talk to me, then I would assume since they can travel through space they are smarter than us, and I would then believe aliens.

Anything is possible! but it is a fact that 55% of the world believes in Aliens. Ignorant people believe we are the only life in this big universe. We can't even imagine the possibilities that are out there.

Believe IN Aliens? Sure. It is too hard to believe that were are the only ones who exist! I agree with the quote from Contact (as horrible of a movie that it was) "What a waste of space"

Exist, I think not.
Do I believe there are life forms on other planets in the universe, absolutely, in fact I'm 100% sure the universe is packed full of life, It's just that big and we know it. That's the big problem, it's too big, so big that odds of an intelligent life form ever coming here are less than winning the lottery. We've spent the last 40 years checking out all the planets in our local solar system only to learn there are no signs of intelligent life here so knowing that it would need to come from another system and that my friends is just to far. I think a lot of people can't grasp just how far it is, to put it in perspective, the farthest man made object from earth is the voyager space probe, launched almost 30 years ago it is just now entering outer space, or the area beyond what is considered our solar system and all of the main bodies that make it up.
With our current technology it took 30 years to travel 8 billion miles and that is still considered "home", if we could travel at the speed of light, which many scientists say will never be possible unless you could turn yourself into a photon, it would still take 12 hours and you haven't even left town yet. 4 years to reach the closest star but no earth like planets and about 50 years to reach an earth like planet. Now to top it all off 50 years to get back and during that time 1000's of years would have passed for earth so no one is alive that you knew and you spent you whole life traveling somewhere just to stop in and say hi. Thats how far we are talking here.
Just in case you have to go to another galaxy because ours is empty, well that will take 100's of millions of years. I know some of you will say stuff like well they will have a technology that allows them to go from point A to point B in space and bend time and such. Well you are right about one thing, that is the ONLY way it will ever happen. I don't believe this is possible, there just isn't any solid facts to prove something like that is possible. It's not like 200 years ago and someone saying man will never fly, birds could fly, bugs can fly, heck even some fish can fly, for someone to say that while there were plenty of things around that were flying would have been just plain stupid. But to say it's possible to bend space and time to allow you to travel huge distances in short time while nothing we can observe can do this?
I'm not saying its impossible just very highly improbable and even 1000 more years of human technology is still not going to keep traveling that far anything that is worth doing for any reason other than you absolutely have to. So with that all said I don't see why "they" would even come here if they could and UFO's are much easier explained if you know enough about what can be in the sky. IN 2005 there is just too much crap up in the sky now to even assume such things, not to mention how much we still don't know about weather and the atmosphere and the plain and simple fact that we know for sure that powerful governments of the world have militaries that conduct too secret flight experiments, things that are designed to be unidentified flying objects.

Sure, as in the outer space kind? We are not so special as to be the only life in the Universe. I doubt they'll look like the aliens in Star Trek though...

yes. the universe is so huge, there must be something else out there. In other realms such as the Astral I can assure you they exist. Look up astral realms and astral projection to get a better idea of what I'm talking about

Well, I do believe that there is other life, possibly intelligent, out there in this huge universe.
