Welcome to British_Atheist

When you say that you 'believe in aliens' what do you mean exactly?

I believe in aliens in that I think that its very unlikely indeed that we're the only intelligent life in the universe. (This assumes, of course, that we count as intelligent).

However, I don't think that aliens are visiting the earth, or kidnapping humans for exotic sexual experiments. Which is a shame really, since that'd be kinda fun (why don't they kidnap me? Angry). Nor do I believe that aliens are walking among us disguised as humans, and controlling the government. It just ain't plausible.

Imo its highly unlikely that we'll ever meet any aliens- the interstellar distances are just too great. At best, we might find evidence of their existence via something like SETI.

Person with crazy views. A portmanteau word combining 'fruitcake' with 'batty'.

This guy here epitomizes what a fruitbat is. He is the essence of fruitbattery.

So when you say it was your religion, you got a wash there. They never change the water in those lil baths y'know.

It's called "Great Britain" because it's the largest island of the British isles. It is the greatest land mass and so it's called "Great" Britain. Got nothing to do with greatness old boy. We lost that a good while ago.
The island's history dates back many thousands of years, the country many hundreds. The island's cultured history dates back many thousands of years. Long long long before the Roman Empire.
Tis a very old island, home to a very old race.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
