Do you believe that there are other beings living on other planets?

Are we truly all alone in the universe? - Maybe we are, maybe were not. The question of whether we are the only beings in the universe brings even more mystery and curiosity to the table. Do you believe?

Many people around the world have reported being visited by alien beings that resembled nothing like a human being. Many claim they have been abducted, put to sleep, then when they awake knowing nothing of what events took place. Movies such as The Fourth Kind, Taken, Signs and a few more claim that they are all based on true stories. My question is do you believe in beings from other planets? Are we truly alone? Do these movies have some kind of truth to them? Share your view and opinions on these issues.

There are probably planets with intelligent life on them. However, we do not know if these are real people, i.e. human beings, brought there by evil angels (demons) or whether there are different types if intelligent species who are not human or humanoid. I tend to think that human beings are the only mortal beings that exist, and that most of the visitors we see, the bug eyed beings, are possible animals of other planets who have been possessed by demons to delude us or the demons themselves taking forms we would consider alien life forms. (no more of this Satan appearing as an angel of light if that does not work on people who believe aliens have green skins, bug eyes, and other weird concoctions.) There is also the possibility that humans in the past, through the centuries have been kidnapped or went to another planet through a worm hole, but it would have only happened at times when human life here was in danger, that is, in the early years of human existence. Another possibility is that these dark eyed large eyed people may have been humans but sort of like through inbreeding, this trait came up. However, then we would need a DNA test to see if this is true.

It does seem logical that Satan could take many forms and when people believed that alien beings from other worlds looked like Greek or Norse gods, that is what Satan and his minions appeared to them as. Now people expect them to look like giant insects, bug eyed monsters, lizard beings, etc. and Satan is sure to accommodate that illusion. Then if his cronies kidnapped human children over the centuries he would have this army who are armed with the intelligence of angels. Sounds rather ominous when you look at it that way.

You have some great theories. I do believe that if they do exist, they would look nothing like us. Satan is a very powerful force on earth and when God caste him out of heaven, he was sent down to our planet. I would not put anything past Satan and his evil angels.

well, i'm not too sure about people being visited or abducted by aliens but i do believe very much that there must be other life forms in our galaxy(yes galaxy!). there are billions of galaxies in our universe most of them have millions and billions of stars. our sun is also one such star. our own galaxy has millions of star and so it's not funny or ridiculous to believe that there must be other beings in our galaxy besides us. so just imagine what will the rest of billions of galaxies will have in store!

universe is only one...if there had been many then it would have been called multiverse. all the stars and galaxies are in it. it's too vast and beyond our imagination. so i strongly believe, with it's countless number of stars and galaxies like ours, there must be other planets like earth that supports life.
• Canada

Who knows what can happen even ten years from now. It is true that there is millions, if not billions of galaxies out there. Do we share the same universe with others.

I actually do believe that there is life on other planets. I also believe that our government here in the United States has PROOF of life on other planets, and that they are hiding it from the public. They are hiding it because they know that our weapons and our defenses are no match for the technologies possessed by the alien beings, and they don't want to admit it for fear of a public panic. I certainly believe that the Roswell incident is TRUE, and that AREA 51 holds the proof of the event and the proof of the government cover-up.
• United States
12 Feb 10
Of course they have the hidden ships out there in AREA 51. That is one reason the place was built. I have seen UFO's on a number of occasions. I am certainly not saying that I saw little green men or anything, but I have seen some things in the night sky that I certainly cannot explain, and I have seen a couple of them a little closer than I would have liked to have seen them...
• Canada

Interesting. I never fully trusted the government whenever it came to telling the people the whole story. The government might even have some ships hidden for their own personal research and use. There are a lot of people who claim they have experienced something not of this world. All I know is that if they do exist, their technologies would be very valuable to the government.

I don't believe in beings on other planets. The Bible tells how God created the heavens and the earth and as far as the life He created it only refers to the earth. That tells me two things: 1. There is no life on other planets and/or, 2. There may be life on other planets but it's not something God wishes for us to be concerned with. I truly don't know if there is life on other planets but even if there is it's not something I care about.

That's a valid point. Maybe God did leave that info out of the scriptures. But, that just validates my point that God didn't want us to be concerned with it. Personally, I believe the whole thing with the possibility of aliens on other worlds and the idea that they've visited earth in the past, abductions, and so forth, is just one of many tools, down thru history, that the devil has used to persuade man to turn his eyes and attention away from God and focus it on something else. But, that's just my opinion.
• Canada

I too personally believe that God created the heavens and earth. However for some crazy what if they left out all the other worlds and planets that sustained life out of the bible scriptures.

After seeing Bio and history channels stuff about aliens and UFOs I was shocked. In fact they had 3 different retired NASA astronauts on there stating that there was giant snakes in space, and many other creatures, they even showed photos of the snakes. I have to say if such things are up there in space, then most likely there are aliens that are intelligent, and living on other planets.
• Canada
12 Feb 10
I never knew about the giant snakes up in space. Very interesting. Thinking about it gives me the willies. A lot of people are frightened of snakes on earth. Can you imagine if these giant snakes found a way to enter our atmosphere. Freaky.

Well the logic tells you, the universe is infinite, so this planet cannot be the only one where there is intelligent life, or at least life. Now, these days I have seen people telling all sort of stories that they can't prove, there hasn't been concrete evidence that aliens has visit us. There is a lot of debate, but nothings has really been establish, I am not saying that it doesn't exist life in another planets, I just think that we haven't been able to see it. There has been always a lot of debates, and a lot of cover up from the government in many issues, because for them is more convenient that we think that aliens are visiting us, than we think that they are developing new planes or weapons. Again I am not against the believe that there is life in another planet, in fact, I do believe it, it is I am skeptical about those stories about people been kidnapped and all that.
• Canada
12 Feb 10
Some skepticism enters my mind too about the kidnapping stories, but how do we really know for sure that everyone of those stories and witnesses are lying. I guess when it comes down to it, only the one who told their story will know what happened or didn't happen.
• United States
12 Feb 10
We don't know if they are lying or not, that's my point, because they haven't really proved that they were abducted, if I tell you that I had an affair with the president Obama, would you believe me?, of course not, unless I show you a video, or a phone call something concrete. The thing is, if you are going to make an statement as strong as that you have to be able to prove it, beyond everything.

I think it is very possible there is other beings living on other planets. Why not? You just never know.
• Canada
24 Feb 10
Your right. Right now at this present time, we really don't know for sure. All I can say is that we need more evidence to prove they exist and if they don't exist.

I believe in the possibility that there's life on other planets. Chances are, that if they exist, they are too far away to travel here and abduct people though. Maybe we'll find out one day...
• Canada
12 Feb 10
Maybe we will. I feel as the years go by it looks like more and more people around the world are claiming to experience this phenomenon. It just puzzles my mind at times of how many people claim to have witnessed these encounters.

Obviously by all the responses, most people do think there is other life forms in the universe. I not only agree with that, I also think there are aliens living on this planet or else there are some people who are unknowingly being fed information by some kind of alien life form. To think how far our society has come in terms of intelligence starting with the discovery of fire.
• Canada
12 Feb 10
Very interesting theory. If they had a higher state of consciences and intelligence they probably could secretly fly down to earth undetected and even blend in with humankind.

like we know,from the biblical point of view God created the heavens and earths;which include both living and non living things.So why are we being deceived by all this myth or fictions we see on Hollywoods movies.so there's nothing like living things or aliens.
• Canada

Until each and everyone of us who have never experienced it, experience it, we will never be able to fully embrace the impact of an Alien race.

Sometime watching these kinds of movies just give me an eerie feeling. Imagining that there are still other creatures aside from us here in our universe. Just to take a look at the documentary specials from discovery channels and national geographic channels, even ancient people from the Incas had already some kind contact from the outer beings. These are just an evidence that we are not alone from this universe.
• Canada
12 Feb 10
These documentaries are so convincing now a days uh. If we think logically, can all those documentaries be false? Who knows. That would mean that they got a payoff to talk about being abducted and visited by beings from another world.
• Philippines
12 Feb 10
yeah, it could be false because if we come to think of it, we are the only ones thinking and analyzing about it. we haven't really asked the people from the ancient what was that images were for. it might be used only for their rituals, who knows, and not because they had encountered another being from the outside world.

Earth is one of the millions of planets in our milky way and our milky way is one of the thousand other galaxies in the universe. So according to me there is a 100% chance there is alien life somewhere out there(most probably watching us from outer space) and they maybe more technologically advanced then us . So i believe that there can be beings on other planets but the stories that people claim that aliens have landed on earth, that they have been abducted etc seem to far fetched to me. In fact i really wouldn't believe aliens visiting the Earth until i see them with my very own eyes.
• Canada
12 Feb 10
I guess to truly have real proof we just have to see it to believe it. I live in Canada my whole life and I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary up in the sky. Maybe if I were in another country I might witness something, but until then my eyes will be up in the sky.
• India
12 Feb 10
no we r not alone i think so because ..u should know that the are several galaxies in thist universe...an aour galaxie is is a part af that...may be there are another planet in another galaxie in this universe ..like earth ...may b the people of that planet muth more advance than us ...or much more lower to us...im not sure..but my belive is that there may b some onother planet having aliens
• Canada
12 Feb 10
Could possibly be. They could be watching us right now as we type. These stories and claims have been around for years and years so for me it is really interesting and difficult to determine if Aliens do exist and do visit our planet.

In my opinion i do believe there are being from other planets... i even believe that we are living among them... also i think some of us are here for a purpose incarnated in human... some of us i think came from other entities from the universe.... as far as movies.. i do think they somewhat have some truth...
• Canada
24 Feb 10
I too believe that there is some truth to all these alien movies and books. Unless there was some kind of mass hysteria, I feel that there is some truth out there.

I definitely believe that there are beings on other planets. The movies tell it all. I mean c'mon, I know Hollywood can be creatieve and all but not THAT creative. It has to come from somewhere. It makes perfect sense we live on planet earth so why is it impossible to believe that there is or once was life on the other planets.
• Canada
12 Feb 10
It is not impossible at all. I feel nothing is impossible, just really hard to prove at first until something real is actually broadcast to everyone.

I think it is possible that life does exist in other planets. But it is impossible to say for sure unless we are one of the guys from start wars or star trek.

If only we had those ships from star trek and star war uh. We could move through space very easily using light speed technology.

actually i am not agree with this suggestion. As long as they are not found, i will keep my mind they only earth get beings. but as the society and technology progess in an unbeliveable pace, nothing is impossible. hope to have some backthorugh about this deal

I like this question. My mind tells me, yes, there are beings on other planets and maybe even here (inside the earth) that explains the UFO's popping out of the oceans, and Roswell as well as the many thousands of sightings across the world. We are not alone. This huge universe wasnt just put here for us. What would be the purpose? I think its scary to think that we ARE alone. Dont you? My question would be why??? I can digest a life filled universe better and feel like we have company. Maybe they are nicer than us, and that would be a plus. As far as abductions, i'm not sure about that. I guess one can never be sure unless you experience it yourself. I am NOT ready to see 3 little greys standing at the foot of my bed, that's for sure. Very thought provoking. Thank you.
• Canada

People around the world claim these little greys are for real. I'm just so torn between what they are saying is fact or just made up to make themselves something to talk about.

I`m absolutly sure that we're not alone in the univers?. There is too many other planets and if here the life has begun before milions of years then it should have happend and on some other place. The only question is are they more intelegent of us and with more developed technologies?
• Canada
12 Feb 10
Their technology must be really powerful and innovative to be able to reach our planet. If they did exist they must have a higher intellect than we do as a people.
