Quite possible, and as Stu mentioned - we may have the technology to see 'so far' into the galaxies - there may be so much more that we cannot 'reach' / see.

The way I look at it is: - Who is to say that life forms aren't present in places that are deemed not to have life form. who is to say that what we (as humans) require to sustain ourselves and 'our world' are what another life form needs.

We may need oxygen to survive, we may need the plants and foods that we have for us to exist - it doesn't necessarily mean other life forms require anything like that. They may be able to survive in a form and by what is around them, they may not need shelter as we know it, may not need water, may not need 'food' by the things that 'we' class as food.

It seems many people base the possible existence of another life form in comparison to what we, as human beings, need to exist. I think to do so is a very blinkered view.

I always have to point this out to people who seem to insist on judging the possibility of alien life purely on their own needs. It's so silly.

Why has the term 'Christian God' come into this, by the way? It's a thread about aliens. The Christian God did not create us. We created him.

I see what you mean. I always wonder if the "life form" could reach us better than we could reach them. Maybe they are super smart or something, like they have figured out how to travel galaxies or something like that, you know?

We know 'so much' but also know so very little.......and I am most definately a 'believer'.

Do you think we are the only intelligent life form as such or do you think there is something out there?

Maybe. The universe is huge but we don't know how probable it is for life to develop, let alone intelligence - life (in some form) existed on this planet for possibly 3.8 billion years before human intelligence came about.

There is also a theory that if intelligent civilisation formed elsewhere in the universe, say a few billion years after the universe was formed it would have had time to explore (and colonise?) every part of the universe. However there are explanations, if you read into it, why an alien species would choose (or was unable) not to do this.

So I say possibly, but we can't be certain.

Really? Wow, now there's something I didn't know. Last night it was about tea and now this. Who knew TiBB could be so educational?

Swot !! The 'colonisation' theory is interesting - but if they were superior - would they want to !

TBH, if there are aliens out there, and in a higher intelligent life form than us - if I were them, I'd be leaving us well alone (for a whole range of reasons!).

[James]

Yeah, I checked Wiki for that number. I knew it was billions of years though.

I think they might exist but I'm not really sure, I think I'd like if they did.

Same.

It'd be ******ing amazing talking to like Aliens on MSN and stuff and like dating a girl from another planet, Talk about long distance relationships.

But we could make it work, I want a purple alien.


I really hope they do find life on other planets now

They would have us believe in anything if we are gullible enough to believe. Aliens in human form, touch of the David Ickes here.

Like we found them?

What a silly argument. They could be just like us. Or even less advanced. Why would they have had to have found us? They don't all have super intelligence and spaceships.

Think outside the box, people. Jesus wept.

I think he's saying that we would have found the aliens by now if they did exist, it's a bit incoherent though. Either way, it's still a stupid argument

that's the problem - some people have such closed minds - not even open to the consideration of what might be a possibility.

just my opinion...

If God created the universe then God must be an alien.

Religion is therefore alien worship.

No God created the Universe
