Aliens UFOs

According to the Drake equation, the odds of us being alone in the universe are less than one. That being said, would it really change our view of Christ if we discovered we are not alone? I watched what I believe was a UFO for about 30 minutes late one night while I was on guard duty while on a field exercise in White Sands, New Mexico. Some of my extended family hold the same view as @kirk regarding aliens, and that's okay. Just as our views of the "End Times" doesn't change how it will actually play out, our views regarding ET doesn't change whether or not they actually exist. Like anything else that we can speculate about, we shouldn't get so focused on them that we ignore our relationship with Christ.
It need the right environment to support life, and only the earth is known to be able to do that now!

Unless the alien life forms need some entirely different environment from what we do on Earth. We don't really know much about the environments of other worlds, and can only guess as to what other life forms would need. UFOs sightings go back hundreds, or even thousands, of years. I simply hold the position that it's possible. Why not? The Bible is silent on this topic. This is not a question that affects our salvation, and I've never seen a problem with believing that not only is there life out there, but we have probably been visited. If I'm wrong, no problem. While it makes for an interesting discussion, I don't really care what view others take on UFOs & aliens. We may never know for sure.

Personally think that they are all demonic in origin though, as Satan keeps updating them over time, so what was once seen as "gods" became fairies and elves, and now alien grays!

Fairies, elves, and grays? Why do you think any of those exist at all?

You may very well be right. I have to admit that some of the UFO encounters we hear about are pretty spooky and scary. Then again, they may truly be ETs from other worlds. Then again, these encounters could be a combination of both.

Just seems like satan updates and accommodates mankind based upon our culture and technology throughout history!
