Topic was spurred by the links I posted in the news thread.
What's your opinion on intelligent extraterrestrial life? Notice how I'm being politically correct by not using the term Aliens. Not that our politics would apply to them, if ever.
Personally, I'm pretty sure that extraterrestrial life exists, as in the more simple life forms. As for intelligent life, well I'll say it's highly likely. The probability for it is exponentially huge, I'm sure.
It actually surprises me when people say that they don't even consider the possibility of it, whether it's because of religious reasons (even though the Catholic church says that the existence of extraterrestrial life actually testifies to the splendor of a superior being) or simple ineptitude.
Your thoughts?
