    Years 1000's of years, reports of strange looking objects have been seen flying in the sky... Reports date back to Christifer Columbus of UFOs. UFO stands for Unidentified Flying Object. Have aliens come to this earth? Have scienctists really reverse engineered UFOs at Area 51? what are your thoughts?

    Heres a very interesting video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnIe4xYT ... playnext=1

    Scienctists claim to have reverse engineered UFOs at area 51, reports of alien abductions, Videos of eleged aliens... Are they ture? or is it all, just the minds of humans at its best work to think of something more for the government to be hiding...

    What i find interesting is how obamas staff said they need to be more open with UFOs, and its time to tell the truth about what they know, and they will do so in time... Does this just support the theories of possible UFOs at area 51?

    Engineers that claim to have reverse engineered these crafts claim they can travel at the speed of light... Is this true? and would the government really hold this revolutionary information out from us while we struggle with gas engines?

    Can the government really hold such a big secret for this long of a time?

    My opinion is yes. They are real, they have been here, and the government has worked on ufos... They is strong evidence to back this up, with ways that are almost fool proof...

    Discuss...

    Well I'm tempted to believe... but seriously, it would be so hard for the goverment to keep something like this and think about another thing how would aliens who are way more advanced than us reveal themselves to us?

    I would say its possible, Not so much they come and take people at night then gang probe them (as southpark would have you believe :p) but maybe they do keep an eye on the plannet to see how its getting along?

    I personally dont believe that we are the only plannet in the whole universe to have intelligent life. As for the government keeping it a secret if they for example brought down the spacecraft at rosewell and the alien was able to communicate what if it said "your all future slaves i'm a scout ship" Could you imagine putting that on the news? gun sales would go up nobody would go to work since come on the plannet is gonna be at war soon econemys would collapse nobody would be building anymore weapons food would raise in price it send the plannet into kaos in a matter of weeks.

    Well but do you seriously believe that the goverment would be capable of keeping this a secret?
    Imagine some of the big boulevard magazines would get something that is halfway hard evidence...
    Would it be a secret for long?

    Yes, If something as big and as powerfull as the US government wanted it could coverup anything, using force and money you can get anything you want my quest for any truth could be brought to an end quite easy for example
    2 mil
    1 mil
    my legs intact
    my familys legs intact
    my freedom (pinning shit on you you didnt do)

    I think there are. But I keep wondering, what would aliens want anything to do with us if they would be so much more advanced than us.

    Maybe study us like scientists study chimps and apes and such? I mean if they are more advanced they may want to know why were not so advanced yet?

    Possible, but not probable.
    We aren't as important as we would like to make ourselves out to be.

    I think there is a big difference between saying that intelligent life exists and that aliens far more advanced than us are watching us/having contact with us...
    The first one is very probable in my opinion, the second one?... not so much I'd say

    UFOs, Unidentified Flying Objects, exist 100% without a doubt. Anything we see in the air that's not to our knowledge or isn't revealed to us, is an UFO.

    However, I think the thread implies "Do extraterrestrials exist?", rather than UFOs.

    This question is hard to answer as a human. However, I am going to say yes, they do exist. Most ET sightings and whatnot I have to say are fake. However, I'm sure there are multiple encounters a day between our Earth and ETs. We just go to remember that must of the Earth is unoccupied by humans - water. Then another part of the world is uneducated and would simply not understand the concept of an ET if they saw one. On occasion, though, an ET probably hits down somewhere inhabited by educated human beings....and that's when all kinds of hype occurs and whatnot.

    In the long run, it's important to note that Earth is just one planet in millions...so on the occasion that an ET visits Earth, Earth has plenty of uninhabited land...whether it strikes in a desert, ocean, lake, river, forest, 3rd world country, farms, fields, etc, or at night when people are sleeping and can't see...that's why it's so rare for things like the Roswell...and then there are older things like Stonehenge and crop circles and all that stuff.

    Another thing to mention is that they might have cures or be the cause of diseases. For all we know, maybe HIV and other diseases without cures came from ETs and that's why they're so hard to treat and find a cure for. On the flipside, the aliens/ets/martians/-insert term here-s might also have some sort of cure and other methods for things such as broken legs and whatnot. They probably also develop natural immunities and whatnot. Maybe like a snake, we can take their venom and make a vaccine.

    And another thing, it's possible that ETs might not be visible, maybe they surround us right now. They have such technologies and elements and different things that we don't know about that it's possible they might have such powers to go invisible and "teleport", which would answer how they travel through the galaxies and whatnot. Just because we don't seem them regularly, or occasionally, don't mean they don't exist.

    Sorry for this kind of mumbling which kind of had no drift or point lol...just a bunch of random points thrown in a couple randomer paragraphs.

    I think it is quite possible that the government is keeping this away from the public, and it may be used for some military or research purposes (something important ;) ). Or, UFOs could exist, but they are not controlled by the government. I don't think most of the "abducting" and all is just negative thoughts that are put in us because we don't know them. Who knows, they might not be green and scary? They may be high-tech and smarter than us, or they could be slower than us in their world.

    I'm not so sure that the government is keeping them secret...why haven't they struck in another place such as Canada or England or something, where the government would perhaps release info.

    Seems like all the g'ment having secret knowledge is all from the us...wouldn't aliens strike other places too?

    Although, pointing at lighningstalon's post, I do believe if "aliens" exist that they would be far superior to us knowledge wise...otherwise they wouldn't be appearing in our Earth. They(assuming they're real) obviously would have to some sort of power or technology to travel throughout the galaxy.

    The thought that HIV and other hard to treat diseases came from ET's sounds to me not probable... New diseases are created ervery day through mutation, (the flue comes in a different form every year) so ahy shouldn't Aids and all the other things you think about too?

    Of course they are. I don't know if any of you ever watch the History Channel, but if you do you'll be just as sure as me. I can't explain it in a post, but it's true.

    Wow, what a vague post.

    Yes, you can draw your own conclusions. And that's what my conclusion is. Have you ever seen the one about Britain's Roswell?
