I do not believe that there are extraterrestrials, although I think it is likely because we have the example of ourselves.
However to establish a belief position on the subject I would want proof.
I like to have evidence for what I believe.
Theists seem to work in the reverse direction when it comes to their impossible delusion.
Their stance is "I will believe in this stupid unprovable thing until some one proves definitively that the great pumpkin will never visit the pumpkin patch"
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
