"Sorry, I do not believe. No Aliens, Ghosts, or Yetis."

I like proof, and while I've seen nothing definitive for any of the above, I don't dismiss them out of hand either. I do believe that there are species of mammals on this earth that have yet to be discovered...Yetis or sasquatch? perhaps not, but almost every year, *new* mammals and lower life forms are described by science. Likewise, I've not seen proof for life on other planets, but given the size of our galaxy, much less the universe as a whole, it seems certainly possible to me...perhaps not in the cockpits of flying saucers, but perhaps nestled in some pool of ooze on a far flung planet, there is something that we might agree qualifies as "life." Certainly, any Christian believes in angels, demons, and that non-corporeal entity referred to as "the soul." In this area, I fall in line with CS Lewis who found the terms "paranormal" and "supernatural," somewhat curious as they imply we have a comprehensive and infallible knowledge of all that is normal and natural...and to believe that is the height of human vanity. I suspect there is far more humans do not know about or understand than what we actually do have a pretty good bead on...
