Everything is a belief until it becomes knowledge. That's the thing... we dont know that aliens exist... it's a belief. I think it's possible, but we dont have evidence of it.

Can I ask what circumstantial evidence you are referring to? Is it simply the existence of other planets and stars that makes it possible for another 'earth' type planet to exist, and therefore life?
How far are we talking here? Because apparently there are habitable planets only a few light years away, and that's only a few steps relatively speaking.

For me it's really more of a philosophy, im agnostic, I admit that I dont know and its pointless to claim otherwise... I definitely think its possible life is out there (it's certainly plausible), but I hate that argument of "the universe is so big it cant be a waste of space", because I mean, waste and meaning are subjective human ideas!
What exactly makes physical aliens somehow a more sensible explanation than non-physical extradimensional creatures?
