“I do not classify people who are gullible enough to believe in little green men, ghost and unicorns as intelligent.”
I’d rather have a someone with an open mind in an office such as that, than someone with a mind as closed as yours. It’s pretty gullible to believe that only that which one can see exists. To deny the possibility shuts down any possibility of learning and exploring that which isn’t yet known.
We are not alone, our creator is always with us, but we are as unique as a snowflake and there are no others like us. Life may certainly exist on other worlds, but think of all the tens of millions of species that have existed on earth... How many of them have been self aware? One and only one and the idea that there is anywhere else like earth in the universe is not only unreasonable... It is essentially improbable as much as it is impossible.
