Hey, second generation English major and former SAT teacher here. I've been dunked on on a 9 foot rim but I have never lost a vocab challenge. So there you go.

Thanks for the visual. You just gave me my first good laugh of the day. Ps, I suck at basketball too.

All I have to say is that I think it's extremely naive to believe that Earth is the only planet in the universe with intelligent life.

I am the skeptical type. This show can have an eye opening effect on you! Enjoy

I believe in anal probing aliens...I wonder why aliens are fascinated with the human buttocks.

Thanx Saden! Somebody had to take bullet, and drag the thread down...............into the bowels of........

Hog1, you're welcome?

Seriously folks, aliens? Yeah they might exist somewhere in the universe but I highly doubt they've visited the earth.

All I have to say is I'll believe it when I see a flying saucer with my own eyes. Until then the existence of aliens is just one big rumor and something that people with wild imagination can ponder.

You're assuming my arguments against the visitation of aliens is solely based on not having seen aliens myself. Obviously there are other factors that have to be considered but hearsay is not one of them. I have seen dinosaurs skeletons. It's a scientific fact that dinosaurs existed long ago which is more than I can say for the existence of aliens.

This is an important distinction. Can I believe in the existence of aliens without believing in them? I mean, what have they ever done for me?

The following statement is valid in the context of your question but it doesn't make sense at all.

I believe aliens exist.
But I don't believe in aliens.

You can believe in the probability of their existence, that's to say they may or my not exist. To believe is to affirm their existence to be true and that they are real.
