Obviously the subject of UFO's is quick to bring ridicule and nutjobs out of the woodwork. The only thing is, beyond the outlandish theories, hoaxes, and explained away cases, there are plenty that can not be thrown away. Do you believe this subject warrants serious scientific consideration and/or investigation?

We aren't going to write your thesis for you.

i think they warrant consideration and investigation. i'm not sure if the government should be spending money doing it (unless they are directly involved in whatever incident occurred), but hey if some other organization has the time and money to do it, go for it

also, i used to read TONS of UFO (not to mention other paranormal stuff) books when i was a kid

These flying objects, they should be identified.

ufos aren't unpossible, but genuine alien ufos are generally considered highly unlikely.

spend resources accordingly.

I don't think UFO's are visiting us, personally. Pretty sure we'd have definitive proof by now, and not just some odd metal shards or video of blurry lights.

That said, if someone has some evidence of it that isn't just hearsay, seeing something strange, or anything else with zero PHYSICAL evidence able to be studied, then by all means, lets see it and have the scientific community analyze it.

we do have definite proof though and scientists do investigate it. they've spent billions aimlessly trying to send and receive messages from space ever since.

So then what is it?

You cant make a statement like that and not elaborate.

I like John Lear's story about aliens in Penn & Teller: Bullshit - Area 51 episode

starts at about 10:45

Bubblebobble can't be human. There's your proof

why is the government going to investigate something they have complete knowledge of?

My theory is that we are in a programmed universe.

Anything is possible.

the video is named "bill nye owned" or something, but he is the only one who made any scientific points in this argument...
