You know what, this is a bit petty? The numbers are obviously STILL STAGGERING. This is exactly what Id expect from a "debunker". This shows the extent you would go JUST TO WIN AN ARGUMENT. Fine, youre not outnumbered, is that what you want to hear? but again those numbers are hard to ignore, unless of course you are a debunker.
...from believing that there is inteligent life out there to aliens visiting us...is a long way....

While it is interesting to hear that a major percentage of people believe in UFOs and such it's not surprising at all. If you instigate a conversation and steer it to the subject of UFOs many people will at the very least say, "there's something to it but I don't know what." So no surprise there.
What is pertinent is what each individual carries around in their own sphere of knowledge and logical beliefs. This is not to say one should jump into believing any consipatorical theory. When given an inch many people will leap to a mile conclusively manufacturing completely unwarranted conclusions beyond the basis of logic. Lets be open minded but reserved all the same.

Again, it's your call; if you continue to imply that the only people left are those who -- like me -- are stupid and/or selfish, no one is going to poke you in the eye or steal your dog or let the air out of your tires.
But I doubt if that kind of comment is going to convince anyone that your assertions are valid!

This survey appears on the national geographic website. Credible source dont you think? Looks like more americans belive in the "boogeyman" known as ET than not In my humble opinion, this is due not only to the countless sightings by people all around the world, but to the advancement of technology at such an uncanny rate and many other factors. I think people are finally waking up. NOT ONLY to the idea that we are being visited but to that fact that humanity is multiplying at a high rate thus more minds to make brilliant discoveries and breakthroughs, hell I wouldnt be surprized if we are already visiting other plantes "behind the scenes" Now I doubt a survey about chupacabra or unicorns would yeild similar results.....enjjoy,
EDIT: ive somehow contained my words in his quote ??? dont know how to undo it
It says a vast majority of people believe there is life somewhere out there on other planets.... Not that people believe we're being visited... or aliens are responsible for our advanced technology..... I believe there is life out there in some form or another but reptilian aliens.... praying mantis aliens... that i find harder to believe..... just my opinion...

explain this logic, because I see absolutly no logic here. Why do you assume this? I suppose after the "big bang". Everything in the universe evolved simultaneously, right? That there may indeed be intelligent life somewhere on the other side of the universe but they too must be confined only to there planet and moon, and arguing about ET life somewhere "out there", on message board similar to ATS.
Im not some kook that subscribes to every conspiracy theory BUT Id like to know why you think that this is SO IMPOSSIBLE. Is it because nothing the governmet/extraterrestrials do could ever get passed your superior intelligence? Or perhaps its that the govts. of this planet could never harm their citizens Now I know your answer may just be, "it would be rediculous to go around filling your mind with all these, maybes and what ifs, youd go crazy". If thats your answer than why are you even posting on ATS?

Does life exist on other planets?
* 60% of Americans believe life exists on other planets
For those that do believe that life exists on other planets, what would ET
be like?
Now lets do the math:
* 7 out of 10 Americans think the intelligent life forms on other planets
would be similar to humans
So this means 70% of the 60% of americans who believe on life out there....that is 0.7*0.6*100 = 42% of americans
