The point of this thread. *rimshot*
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

There are many things I believe in that haven't been proved and aliens are one, evolution in accordance with the evidence of the fossil record is another.

Usually when people ask that question on an atheist or theist site it is attempting to create a reference between an atheist believing and a theist believing but they are totally incompatible.

When a theist claims: "I beleive in god" it means they know god is 100% fact.

When an atheist says "I believe in aliens" it means I believe aliens exist but I will await further proof before claiming it fact.
