How are people so sure that Aliens are those green skinned freaks?

Question

I mean, for all we know, they probably aren't an entity. Maybe their so different that they aren't made of matter at all. How are we so sure that they fly around in U.F.O.'s, how are we so sure they can communicate through satellite's? How are we so sure that they have body structures similar to us? How are we so sure that there are lot's of them? Maybe there's only one in the whole universe. Maybe aliens don't exist in general!

Answer 1

How am I sure you're not an illiterate freak?  

Answer 2

We don't know what aliens will look like since we have never encountered any. There may not even be any out there. But we won't find them if we don't look, so the first place to look is in places like our earth, where we know life is possible. This is why the search for extraterrestrial life concentrates on Earth-like planets.

Answer 3

they are Grey

not green

according to the 'grays agenda'

Answer 4

well, i think its because..regular human beings aren't green or grey. regular humans don't ride around flying things. and there are stories about area 51 and a flying saucer landing and crashing there. and besides, we have seen pictures of wierd creatures and we are just assuming that they are aliens because for sure they are not human beings. and it DOES make sense. out of the whole universe, in a galaxy, there is one planet with water and with human beings and gravity. there is a chance that in another galaxy or something, there will be another planet just like ours. but with more intelligent people and things like that. and, think about it. how were the first human beings born? if you believe in god and such,it was from clay. but if you think about it from the scientific point of view, they say that its from bacteria or something. but they still arent sure. it could be we were created by aliens or something. to fill in the qualities that they needed that they didnt have. heard of alien abductions?

Answer 5

Good point. I've thought about this myself. I mean, the probability of having everything for life to come about as we currently understand it is so far fetched that we may never find life as we understand it in the whole universe. It is possible, but it's finite and small.

But, then again, maybe life can develope by other means. Perhaps you're right. Life that developes elsewhere may be so different we don't even consider it life. Even if we look here on Earth different people have different definitions of life. The Hindus for example believe life exists in all things, even rocks. Supposedly, our souls are transfered to different things depending on our previous lives. If you are a bad person, then you will be a rock or roach that gets squashed. If you were good, you'll be born as butterfly, or a person with a better position in life, or maybe even a star itself.

But, the idea of the green skined or grey skinned aliens is one shared by many abductees, or those who claim to have been abducted, I should say. Maybe they are greys. We don't know for sure. If you ask almost any abductee, he or she will swear by their experience.

On a personal note, I have seen UFOs before. And no, I don't think they're space alien. A race so advanced it can trasverse time and space in an instant between galaxies won't be so careless as to crash or abduct people, leaving them with those memories, and so on.  If you ask me, all these UFOs people see, including the ones I've seen myself, are are actually the government testing aircraft. What better way to cover your tracks than to let people believe they saw an alien craft, and then be seen as nuts for such? I'm not saying this IS what is happening, but being a person who has seen UFOs, and being a person who believes advanced alien races wouldn't be so careless as in the case of Area 51, I think the UFOs are the government experimenting with new aircraft and could be atmospheric phenomenon.

Answer 6

  Nobody is sure,they could be any color look at the variety of colors of creatures on earth.

Answer 7

People who think aliens are visiting earth in flying saucers are sure about it for the same reason christians are sure about jesus, and hindus are sure about vishnu, and the ancient greek were sure about zeus.  They take it on faith.  The UFO culture pretends to have scientific evidence and proof of their beliefs, but it always turns out spurious and highly ambiguous or just a straight out hoax or lie.  Remind you of anyone?  How about the creationists?

The 'little green/gray men in flying saucers' phenomenon is just another religion.
