Exactly my point. Nobody knows, so whenever someone says they can visit because they have a higher intelligence it's all speculation. And why would they need a higher intelligence to visit? To build better spacecrafts that can travel billions of light years? Is the universe really bigger than the planets we know of? So many questions...

Well there's no concret proof of God either

And actually, I saw a show on the History Channel this weekend that had themes scarily close to that X-Files episode But anyway, it was a show about how some of the things in the Bible are actually encounters with extra terrestials. Sounds completely kooky, right?

But the interesting point is there's as much proof for that as there is for God Himself. It was just an intersting point of view that got me thinking, though I'm a believer first and foremost in God.
No, there's no concreet proof of God. And I don't believe in God. I find those theories you mentioned mighty interesting, however kooky they may sound. I don't think it's any less or more kooky than believing in God. Me? I'm with Darwin here as far as the creation of mankind goes. We all started out as teeny tiny atoms.

Exactly....I was watching that show at the gym, there was a guy on a treadmill getting visibly annoyed at the statements that the things in the Bible happened exactly as he thinks they did.

That got me thinking, well why is THIS theory and different than yours? Why is believe in extra terrestials any odder than believing in God? So that's what I've been thinking about for a few days...hence the thread.


Me? As I've stated before I've always been a big believer in everything...even good old Nessy

I can think about these things for days also. And discuss them. You know really, if you think about it, God is a paranormal thing also. It has never been scientifically proven that he exists, yet religion is so much a part of our society that nobody gives it a second thought. I never condemn someone for believing in God, because everybody is entitled to believe what they want to, but it's really hypocritical for someone that believes in God to condemn someone that doesn't, and might believe in something else. Ultimately faith is faith, whether you believe in a universal being or in a bottle of milk. As I said, one believe is not more or less kooky than the other and I am open to all kinds of different theories, until the correct one will be presented to me with scientific facts. Right now, the Big Bang theory wins in that category, and it's something I can most easily wrap my mind around. Faith is nice and all, but in this day and age, it's a little outdated. Gods were created in times when people really had no clue and had to attribute a lot of incidents and happenstances to something or someone. Heck, for the longest time they thought they earth was flat. So, I really blame it on ignorance.

That's really not a name you should mention around me. My parents used to call me Nessie when I was little, and many people found that the funniest thing ever...obviously.
