Ash, I've seen that same docu. The point is that many things will happen for sure, the only thing is that nobody knows when, it can happen next year, it can happen within 5000 years.

Anyways

Is there life out there? yes, I believe so. But remember that 1 cell entities are also life (like bacteria).

Is there intelligent life out there? yes, I believe so. This big blue ball is only a very very extremely small dot in the universe. Although, to have life you need very very extremely rare conditions.

Do "they" visit us (UFO's and such)? Don't be rediculus, that's a no. It is human nature itself that created UFO's because we need to believe in something. Humans are beings which can imagine/fantasize, and sometimes this goes in the wrong way and sometimes it even becomes a religion. If inteligent life was out there, on our doorstep, we would already know about it. Don't be so naive to believe the "they observing us"-theories or what not. Those are nothing more then stories (but sometimes very good stories though) derived from those fantasies which often live their own life.

If you're being rational and think logically then it would be a very stupid alien race to not come in contact with us, yet they would have a damn advanced technology to come here without being detected. Think about how we observe and explore other planets.

Flying saurces? Come on... Do you realy believe they fly a craft which looks like it comes from a 50's-60's movie? Why would it be round? That's the most rediculus and inpractical shape for any craft.

UFO's do exist, but think about what it means. Unidentified Flying Objects. It means it is something the observer doesn't reconize (yet). There are many natural fenomenons which we know that they exist, but we can't explain it yet how they happen. eg: boll-lighting

All the fantastique stories, theories, movies, etc. are only a product of, sometimes a very long, process called human fantasy and curiosity and the urge to give an explaination to something we don't know yet. This has nothing todo with aliens.

So, yes, life is out there, but we will never meet. To have life you got to have very very extremely rare conditions and a very delicate balance of things. This happened here on earth, it is only logical to assume that it happened also elsewhere only for the fact that the universe is extremely big, but the chances that those two meet is even more rare and physically as good as impossible. (think of sizes in this way: the size of a pixel on your screen would be our entire solar system, and the currently known space would be the entire universe. And on the other side, there is also a pixel. Now calculate the chances that those two pixels meet (and in doing so you even don't take in account the universal physic laws)).

And don't even drag in religion, and all the "gods where made by aliens" theories in all this. That's also nothing more then a human thing.
