Yes, I belive in UFOs. Take the sheer size of the universe for example. There are 250 billion stars in the Milky Way alone. That's a lot of stars in our galaxy alone. Let's assume that only 1% of those stars have actual planets. That's still 2,500,000 stars. Now, we'll assume that 1% of those have actuall atmospheres. That brings us down to 25,000 planets. Now we'll assume that 1% of those planets actually have intelligent life. That's still 250 planets left. Now, let's also assume that we didn't have the Dark Ages. That would put us about 300 years into the future. Imagine what we will find out in that time? Presuming that there are aliens, and that they evolved the same time that we did, that would give them a 300 year head start. Now, that would be very conservative, considering how long our planet has been in existance. Let's presume that Earth was one of the last life supporting planets to form. That could give other planets several billion years to produce some sort of intelligent life. (don't forget: other planets might not have had dinosaurs. That would give them a large head start. You can probably find more at http://www.mendhak.com ) Conclusion: there is most likely alien life out there.


And let's assume that the stable structure of the Solar System is somehow standard across the galaxy. Then let's assume that all other planets are far enough away from asteroids, supernovas, and other destructive phenomena so they aren't blown away every few hundred years, and while we're at it let's assume that the universe carries enough energy to generate life in more than one star system. After we assume all that, let's assume that we aren't the first evolution of life in the universe, after all we have already assumed that life can spontaneously occur in conditions that exist outside our star system. Then from that let's assume there are plenty of planets out there that support life, since we already assume to know all the variables involved in creating life to begin with. After that assumption let's take it for granted that life can happen without interference, or that the events that brought it about here happen 1,000 times a day elsewhere in the universe.

While we're on a role, how about we assume that since these aliens, that we assume can exist and assume are more advanced than us, use their technology, we assume they have, to travel around looking for planets that they want to observe, without revealing themselves. And since we're assuming they hang around here, its safe to assume they like to get involved in Earth politics just to mess us up so we can never threaten them. Conclusion: Ted Kennedy is most likely an alien spy.

And if people haven't sensed the sarcasm yet, I'll just say that I don't believe aliens exist, and I don't believe they don't exist. There isn't much in the way of evidence either way.
