      I do indeed believe in the existance of extra-terrstrial intelligence. It seems very unlikely that we are the only intelligent life in the universe!

      I do not think they are buzzing around the sky in UFOs though.

      I don’t know believe or disbelieve in extra-terrestrial life, let alone extra-terrestrial intelligence. I simply don’t have any opinion one way or the other. If there is extra-terrestrial life in our solar system, I think it would probably have to be very primitive or else we would be aware of it by now. But further out in the depths of space – who knows?

      I am really unsure about this. I believe there is life out there but I am unsure as to how intellient it may be! It might be anything from a bacteria to something a lot more intelligent than we are. Who knows!!

      What do you and your class think Tarastphils?

      Like Sam and Katie – absolutely no idea! Life itself is a pretty rare occasion it seems, and intelligent life should be even rarer – but then, the universe is big enough for rare things to happen…

      I would have to say I’m an agnostic – I neither believe nor disbelieve in it. I guess we’ll just have to wait until ET phones us.
