I do. I think it's pretty arrogant to think that we are the only intelligent life form in the universe.

The thing is, the difference between "UFOs" and "aliens" is scale. For UFOs to exist, there would have to be intelligent life near enough to Earth for it to be worth it to them to come here. Considering that as far as we know it's impossible to exceed the speed of light (not "We don't know how" impossible but "It's against the laws of physics" impossible), and that the nearest star to us is Alpha Centauri 4 light-years away, it seems pretty improbable that intelligent life exist near enough to Earth to be visiting.
On the other hand, for aliens to exist, there would just have to be intelligent life somewhere in the universe other than on Earth. And since the universe is, as far as we know, infinite, the odds of someone else being out there somewhere are pretty good.
So, in the absense of actual evidence pointing one way or the other, I'd say UFOs, no; aliens, yes.

Certainly unidentified flying objects exist. They simply are not interstellar spacecraft. The distances between the stars are an insurmountable barrier. Other intelligences may or may not exist. If they exist they don't seem to be broadcasting greetings into space. Of course neither are we, since its much cheaper to listen. SETI has been listening for about 40 years and has never picked up an intelligent signal from space. Its very possible that if intelligence has arisen elsewhere, the lifespan of an intelligent species isn't that long. Species may destroy themselves shortly after inventing nuclear energy. If that is true we may be the only currently existing technological civilization in the galaxy.

Yes ufos are very real and they are already here,, there are those who deny but thats only because they have never seen a ufo, There is just to many things going on and being seen with pictures and videos that can not be explained by science,, as you will see in the below video,,

space is HUGE so are the odds of life out there.

since space is so HUGE and full of EMPTY space and has billions upon billions of destinations , the odds of THEM making it HERE are extremely extremely low.

UFO's (exo planetary alien space craft) haven't been here. its very egocentric thinking, as humans always have,
such as thinking the earth was the center or the solar system and universe. Now we think aliens are going to come here because WE ROCK and theres no where else to go?
but I guess thats "human nature"
why would they waste all that energy and time to come here, to just hide.
(Because we think we have that much influence on beings that have the power and tech to travel the speed of light or faster?)
with that much power comes even MORE POWER and "games" become a waste of existence.
if they came, they'd either help us evolve (so that we could get on their level and we could coexist depending and supporting each other, destroy us, or enslave us.
And we'd KNOW it.

UFS are bluff. if you know basic science then it will be easy to say that ufo's can not fly so low and at great speeds.
yes there are inteligent beingd on many many planets. the only hinderance is great distances between the planets.

I believe in other life forms. I don't really know about UFOs. I don't believe in them, or disbelieve in them. I don't really think about them at all.
