This is sort off topic but it is something that does need clearing up. The Flat earth thing.... It was only a small percentage of people in Northern and Mediterranean Europe thought it was flat and only for a period of about 250 years. It was one of those thing decided on by the catholic church as a doctrine but, in truth totally ignored by most of the populace. if you have a dig around you should be able to find the name of the Bishop who entered the Flat earth idea into the doctrine.
It's become one of those modern myths.

Second one is pretty weird.
Also to add, the second video "Alien" looks like the Colorado peeper alien:

When applied to the 2004 U.S. Census residential population estimate for ages 18 and older, this figure translates to 57.7 million people.

The premise of this thread is flawed. The putting up or shutting up will come at one of two times, and only one of these two times. Either human kind will bump into a neighbor race at some point, and the believers will be somewhat vindicated (although not all of them will be happy, Im sure the hippy "Aliens are Gods" crew will be mortified if it turns out the neighbors know all about drink drugs and gun crime as well ), or the universe will end, or the species will end without us having met anyone or anything else out there, and the skeptics last word will be " I told you so".... Although that wont be the end of it, because in a space as big as the universe, whos to say what the lack of meeting might mean. Perhaps we just missed eachother BLAH BLAH the argument goes on.
All I will say on the issue is, proof at this point is not an acceptable benchmark. There are two many biased and powerful parties in play at this time, for the waters to be clear enough to prove that up isnt down, and that black isnt white.
The only acceptable way forward, rather than making demands and posturing, and territorial phallus waving of that nature , would be to have ALL of us, skeptics, believers, fence sitters actualy go out, and really LOOK at everything and anything, for an answer, for enlightenment, for the greater good. Just get the hell out from behind your desk, and go outdoors, and LOOK for yourself. Dont ask for proof from a believer, and never ask for proof from a skeptic, because they think you cant prove a negative. Just get out there and work together instead of having the debate. The debate is waste, only learning is an efficient use of our time.
