Furthermore, it is the height of arrogance to believe we are the only form of intelligent life in the universe.

It is the height of strawman debate to state that those of us who don’t believe aliens have flown ships through our atmosphere believe that intelligent life doesn’t exist anywhere else in the universe.

I will continue to believe that there are time and space limitations that restrict visitations by any intelligent life that may exist elsewhere in the universe, until shown a single iota of PROOF otherwise.

Your statement that you saw something you couldn’t identify provides proof of very little. It proves only that you typed a statement asserting that you believe you saw something you could not identify. Next time, swipe a bylantium hubcap or something.

I have always thought that it was mathematically impossible that in the ENTIRE universe, we are the only intelligent life.

It is equally mathematically impossible that any other intelligent life has visited our galactically inisgnificant corner of the universe.

The universe is just too big to only contain one planet of intelligent life, just as it is too big to have more than one intelligent species find another one.

FWIW,

reportedly there are 3-4 DIFFERENT ways around the supposed speed of light 'problem.'

Some ET's have supposedly been heard to laugh derisively when questioned about that 'problem.'

How do you explain the 40 million people and mountainloads of photographic evidence?

It proves only that you typed a statement asserting that you believe you saw something you could not identify.

Uh, no. I do not believe I "saw something you could not identify" any more than you believe you got up this morning and went to work. I know I saw a craft. End of story.
