UFO's are unidentified NOT Aliens per se.

To this day, there is no physical proof of anything alien on earth.

Pyramids were built by humans (based on a mountain). The stones were cut and the location still has stones in different states of being cut. Yes, it was difficult but the engineers of the day knew how to use rollers, leverage, pulleys, etc. And they had 50-60 years per pharaoh per pyramid to build. But they are mysterious.

Most UFO's have been determined to actually be reflections from glare, clouds, camera lenses, etc.

Jesus was real, he lived. There is universal proof of his existence. He said what he said. Our centuries are based on his life. I kinda tend to focus on HIS example set on my planet.

The movie "Contact" written by Carl Sagan was very good but in the end all that was suggested was alien life is just like us and wants us all to marvel at the Cosmos, live, enjoy your family, etc.

They built those pyramids by enslaving people and working them until they died.

Nothing says an alien race would be friendly. Advanced technology doesn't necessarily go hand in hand with superior morals or values. We might be a source of slaves or food.

If you happen to come across an alien, lend them your cell phone so they can phone home.

I'm open-minded on the subject in general, but have sometimes wondered why such advanced beings would visit Earth only to give us cranes or leave Nazca lines.

Perhaps they have rules limiting their interactions with pre-warp civilizations. :icon_wink:

Actually, the historical evidence shows that they were trained artisans, builders and craftsmen, and that they were well paid for their efforts
