I say probably, because even though I am a Christian, I am open to "other possibilities" Perhaps there are other creations out there, perhaps God even deals with them. Perhaps my entire belief system is wrong, but I am not here to debate apologetics, at least not yet.
I believe Biblical History goes back about 6000 years,although no one knows how long Adam and Eve were in the garden before the fall. I don't necessarily rule out that the creation days weren't actual days, they could be time periods, the earth could still be millions or billions of years old. I don't think if it was it auto rules out God or Christ. It certainly helps deceive people. But lately, maybe due to world events, I think the young earth position is correct, or at least the human history and God's creation and interaction with it is about 6000 to 10000 years old.
I think probably UFO's and aliens are demonic in nature and likely play a part in the biblical events before Christ's return to end this time period in cosmic history. They would easily help to fill the "great deception" the Bible speaks of in the latter days..
I think the NWO is also part of the coming antichrists' empire that will be ruling in the last days. I think at least some of the conspiracies spoken of on ATS are leading us right to that world government.
Before the flaming starts....I will say this. I am college educated, and while not a hard science major, am fairly well versed in basic scientific concepts. I believe that God gave us that said science to help us understand the world around us and HIm. In fact there is quite a bit of scientific evidence to point towards creationism. I suggest you at least investigate
www.icr.org...
. I also don't believe in Christ or theological concepts just because some preacher told me. I spent a great deal of time when I was younger studing the history of my faith and all the different positions to determine if I was "wasting my time" or not. So while most will call me foolish, or closed minded, I have looked at both sides of the coin, and made my choice. In fact I would find you just as closed minded if you don't sincerely investigate the claims of Christ. After all,. my belief in a loving God, who created each of us, and will return to defeat evil and save (and judge) humanity, is no more bizarre, strange, or closed minded then those that believe in greys from zeta reticuli in cohorts with reptiloids here to eat us thatt are actually disgised as NWO humans, and that nordics will arive to save us and take us to a higher plane......

Wow, soooo many topics to be refuted, but I will refrain. The one thing I want to ask you (right now) is...

The dinosaurs are one of the subjects that have often kept me in the old earth viewpoint. I recently just watched a program called "Dragons or Dinosaurs" (it was on netflix). It actually gives a postulate that dinosaurs and early man coexisted. There are also a minority of geologists and paleontologists that are reexamining the dinosaurs and the possibilities of their die off being only within the last 10,000 years,. I am not saying I buy it, but the program was very interesting, and lined up with a Biblical timeline of a 6 to 10000 year old earth.

of course the size works against these intelligent life forms ever coming in to contact with one an another as well.
Exactly! Now of course "alien tech" magically negates that fact. But in reality, we live in a universe governed by the laws of physics. Yes, aliens might have different materials and power sources, but they are still subject to the laws of nature.
Traveling between galaxies just doesn't seem possible to me.
Radio signals would be my best bet for contact. The sad fact about that is, by the time we hear it, that civilization will probably have been gone for eons.
Simple life, in my opinion, abounds in the universe, complex intelligent life would be more rare but still possible.
Until we can find proof that the laws of physics can be bent, I'm saying no to visitation.

Oh and just to make it clear i believe that ufos(seemingly intelligently controlled objects/craft that surpass any known technology in terms of speed, maneuverability,acceleration etc) are completely terrestrial and completely man made. The alien aspect is simply disinformation.
