why aliens don't exist

[brushhoggin]

    what happened in our solar system is nothing short of a mathematical miracle. everything in the sky is sitting just perfect enough to harbor carbon based life forms on earth. for instance, if the sun were any closer to the earth or further from it, life couldn't be. same with the moon and its position/relationship to the earth. same with the earths position in the solar system and all the gasses present. also the perfect amount of rotation/precession on the earth producing the perfect amount of gravity ideal for human existence. for ALL of this to happen somewhere else in the EXACT same way, is a one in infinity chance. human life is the most precious thing that is because of this.

BASS--clary, how far are you from Norfolk navel base? otherwise, there are 27 military bases in Virginia.  Also, no quoting in this thread.

um the gravity thing doesnt really matter, if that was the case then how do you explain organisms living at the bottem of the ocean?  Also scientist have found over 1000 other planets in the universe that are about the perfect distance from their star to harbor life and also some of these planets are blue which could be water.  There is def other life forms out there.

Why not?

Quoting is fun.

To think that we're alone is selfish.  To think that little green men will visit us is naive. 

With infinite power come infinite possibilities.

You are referring to life as WE know it. Scientist are still finding new life forms on our own planet, who knows what's on other planets? The truth is out there!

It is efficient.

[brushhoggin]

just saying no quoting cause clarys thread got shut down because of over quoting. i wasn't completely serious. and yeah there might be other planets with similar distances but there maybe one tiny variable missing in the equation to provide a suitable environment, thus, no life. So where are all the alien spacecraft?  If they were visiting us in the numbers purported, there would be dozens no, thousands - of convincing videos capturing the buggers.  Instead, all we get are the same old grainy specks that we had since the 1960s. SETI programs have been scanning the sky for two generations and accumulating an enormous amount of electromagnetic data. In all those years, not one single thread of intelligent data has ever been discovered. And this is with looking many light years across space at any given time and direction. The possibility that the heavens could be so silent while aliens are flying around right *here* at our planet, is inconsiderable. It would be like taking a blind person out and telling him he is standing on a sidewalk in the middle of Manhattan on a busy Monday morning when he hears nothing but the breeze blowing past his ears. "Where's all the noise?" he would want to know. Standing somewhere and hearing only the breeze is a pretty darned good indicator that you are NOT surrounded by thousands of cars and pedestrians.

Guys we may as well give up on these threads. I love a good scientific talk as much as the next guy, but you know it will be locked before page 2. People can't stay on that fine line of appropriate.

[Carrington]

who ever said the other life forms out there are advanced?  And also they could be so advanced that we cannot pick up anything from their machines and such.  The truth is somewhere across the 13 billion light years of this universe there are other life forms, some may not be advanced but none the less they are still life.

[fourbizz]

there could be a single cell organism dividing himself across a puddle of goo, somehwere MILLIONS of lightyears away, and it is still alien life.

Billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars, and you think that from a mathematical standpoint we are "one in infinity"? That thought process is so far beyond reason that I dont know how to argue against it.

Thank you fourbizz. There is no better way to put this and for that, I quote it.

I would also like to say, that even if they are not visiting our planet (like you say), that doesnt dismiss the fact that they're out there. How many planets have humans ventured out besides our own? And how many planets are in the universe?

[fourbizz]

Just to make it perfectly clear, I DO NOT THINK THAT ALIENS VISIT US.

I do, however, know that there is other life out there somewhere. No amount of pseudoscience or mysticism will sway me to think otherwise.

[fishfordollars]

They're out there somewhere

They are among us

They visit daily

I have this tiny scar, up on the right side of my neck, and can feel this little metal thingy that seems to have antennas, WAIT, wrong site, thought I was on Coast-to-Coast AM.

[fourbizz]

;D

[brushhoggin]

yeah it's just fun to discuss Nate, as long as it doesn't erupt into a belligerent argument, I'd say it's a decent thread. i have accepted the fact that there is no way to prove or disprove life on other planets. and yes it doesn't have to be an intelligent life,could be the single cell organism dividing himself across a puddle of goo. however, truth is supported by evidence. most adult people don't believe in bigfoot, why? many manifestations of the bigfoot can be traced back to somebody trying to trick someone.Well, many manifestations of the aliens can be traced back to somebody trying to trick someone. bigfoot is never available for an interview. aliens are never available for an interview. ;D

oh and yeah, never forget Art Bell

Wheres Riley Martin when you need him.

[SoFlaBassAddict]

The best part about space is how little we actually know.  To say that there definitely is or is not life out there is, well, silly.  We know so little about whats outside of our planet that there is no way to call it accurately.  Everybody is of course entitled to his or her own opinion on the subject.  Personally, I think that there is life out there somewhere.  Hopefully it's smarter than some of the idiots in our world today.....

ha.  they need to make a movie out of The Coming of Tan.

Aliens do visit us.  BassClary has proof.

Has proof??? He IS proof!!!

[NateFollmer]

I'm pretty sure they have already found fossils of tiny organisms in rocks from the moon and mars, so there's your answer.

[Carrington]

who is Bassclary? lol

[B-Dozer]

Come on, everybody knows who Bassclary is. (no E)

[frogtog]

They are here, if you don't believe me just get up about 4 am and listen to Coast To Coast on the radio.

The only thing is they all seam to be in California.

haaaaaa this thread is great.  ;D
