I think if they ever did then they are still here.
He Void! What are your thoughts on WTC7? The whole thing seems kind of fishy.

As far as the existence of intelligent life? More likely than not, almost a certainty if the universe is infinite.
1) The closest intelligent civilization to earth is likely several thousand light years away. That means they won't even get the first I Love Lucy episode on their TVs for several thousand more years. Nobody out there would know that we are here even if they did have a way to travel here so why would they even be interested in coming here? They just run into us by accident?
2) Even if they could travel at the speed of light (which they can't) it would take them several thousand years to get here. That's a pretty long ride with the kids fighting in the back seat. Plus they better have a good warranty on that flying saucer and they better have their AAA membership.

I've seen plenty of Illegal Aliens, Some act like they are from another planet and a few claim to be Jesus.
well no shit, look where you're from.
Here's one in the window. Some think it's "little horn" from the bible.
Anyone catch that COSMO's show "Unafraid of the Dark"? (dark energy) when the Voyager mission past Neptune it took a picture of Earth, it was so friggin small. We are insignificant compared to our own Galaxy yet alone the universe and it's still growing.
Ya VOID it would be on accident that they found us. BUT that same Voyager does have direction to find Earth. I think the narrator ( Neil DeGrasse) mentioned that in a thousand million years the Voyagers (1 and 2) will only be half way through our Galaxy. That means it's going to need 2 000 000 000 years Just to get on the freeway To another Galaxy
Here's that episode if you missed it: http://www.cosmosontv.com/watch/273943107839

2: Yes, at least twice. I'll guess around 1919, and probably last week. I picture the conversation going something like this: "95 years, and these assholes haven't learned a fuckin thing. They certainly don't deserve to know the secret of how to turn water into fuel for an internal combustion engine, they'll just use it to kill more of each other. C'mon, the meter is running, let's get the hell out of here. Ya, ya, you too, live long and prosper. Whatthefuckever."

Having said that I still don't believe that we've ever been visited, and don't believe we'll ever be visited, and I don't believe we will ever visit anyone else. The reason I believe that is because I think if that were possible we'd already have plenty of proof of being visited. The Earth is 4.5 "billion" years old. In that 4.5 billion years it's only been in the last 50 years that we've evolved and gotten smart enough to travel to our closest moon and planets. It would be pretty silly to think that some of those civilizations that are vastly smarter than us wouldn't have evolved to that level far sooner than we have. Millions of years earlier would be a tiny amount time.
If civilizations have had millions of years on us and are that much smarter than us we'd have regular visitations. Yeah, I know Neil said why would they bother with us, certainly one of those vast number of smart civilizations would have an interest. I just believe that the distances involved are just too vast, regardless of how superior the civilization. There are certain laws of nature that just can't be broken (speed of light, etc). And I don't believe the time warp theories will ever lead to successful time/distance travel by a being. It's just what I believe and what makes sense to me. I think if that were possible we'd already have the proof. People from the future would have come back and gave it to us. Makes for good movies though.
I just wonder where we would be had people like Archimedes not been murdered and where did they get this technology?
This topic intrigued me since I was able to think on my own. Ya hear so many BullShit stories that the weak mined MoFo's gather momentum and get the ball rollin .(conspiracist) .
Here is my take on the subject:
What is an alien? if an alien is a living breathing cell that mass produced from another planet then we are all Aliens.
It took many BAZILLIONS of years to make life out of nothing but yet life as we know it thrives on this planet, why? because the elements to make life that can think for itself happened to happen when another meteor, asteroid, planet...ect.. collided with Earth many bazillion years ago that brought the element needed to make Mankind.
And again when when Dinosaurs were taking over. Coincidence? Maybe but to think that Mankind as we know it may have never existed if that "meteor ' never hit Earth.
My belief is: that there is a bigger power that we continue to avoid. Some call it GOD.
"Miracle on the Hudson" comes to mind, Miracle..., really? Sully was as cool as can be with many hrs under his belt. Give him the credit? some..."IT WAS A MIRACLE!" But yet the birds flew in the engine causing it....thats life, and life will sustain if givin the right properties.
Chain of events is what this planet was born on and in an instant, we all could be extinguished just like the Dinosaurs
To use Neil`s way of thinking. Humans have tried to explore flight for thousands of years. So when the Wright brothers finally made it (a few meters, but still), all of a sudden 50 years later humans were flying jet aircraft, and shooting homing missiles at each other. We can not even start to imagine what kind of technology a species would have with a head start of maybe millions of years. Heck, we couldn´t understand it if the difference was only 500 years!
With that said, I don´t think we´ve been visited either. I was watching UFO clips on youtube a week ago or so and saw a really good comment which was pure gold after having seen quite a few clips: "Hey look, a UFO! Let med grab my lowest quality camera!"
Humans are too stupid and uninteresting for an advanced civilization to even bother visit. We still believe in fairy tales and think we are the centre of the universe, and call ourselves humble. Let´s hope the species we evolve into will fare better than we have
Regarding the laws of nature, some of them actually seem to be broken. Or rather, our understanding of the laws are not complete. For example, the knowledge regarding black holes is almost non-existent. We know they swallow light and matter, but that is pretty much it. There are so many interesting thesis of propulsion that I´m not yet willing to say we can not find new ones that will break the laws of nature as we know them today. Cool topic btw!
