Zone1 What if the next release of UFO files contains proof of biological entities not from Earth?

[MarathonMike]

proof eh. When they say, take me to your leader, i'll believe

If that happens, does that change anything with respect to your religious views?

 

[Chuz Life]

I've called Police non emergency twice to report weird things in the sky that I just couldn't explain. One was on a very clear night (in the 70's) and I now think it was either a satellite or very high altitude plane like an SR-71

 

[Invisibleflash]

Would proof of intelligent extra-terrestrial life forms change anyone's views on their respective religion and/or beliefs? Why or why not?

I don't believe in any god/s. It would not make any difference to me.

First off it's not going to happen. Even if life exists elsewhere, time and distance precludes us ever knowing about it. But to answer your question, no, it wouldn't change a thing about my beliefs. God is existence. It's not an accident matter, energy, the laws of nature, etc, are hardwired to produce intelligence. It's predestined. Why would it only exist here if it is the nature of existence to produce intelligence? As near as I can tell the universe is an intelligence creating machine.

Do you believe in existence? Same thing.

 

[MarathonMike]

You can't be sure of what you don't know. And what I'm referring to is the "Earth-Centric" view of creation per the Judeo-Christian religions.

 

[ding]

It doesn't. The next ones won't either. This isn't any sort of diclosure event, it's just another shiney object to distract people from the terrible things they are doing in DC these days.

Terrible things? Are you making a moral argument again? Is there anything wrong with doing terrible things in a Darwinian world? Eat or be eaten, right? What's wrong with lying, stealing and cheating as long as you get what you want, right? Are you trying to control people or something with your invisible laws of common decency? Who said you don't have a religion?

 

[ding]

You can't be sure of what you don't know.

I'm sure life exists outside of earth and I'm sure we will never find out about it. But why limit it to one universe, right? Why can't there be infinite universes? With each one being an intelligence creating factory? There's nothing special about us. We are God's creatures.

And what I'm referring to is the "Earth-Centric" view of creation per the Judeo-Christian religions.

We live on earth. What centric view should we have? I've never understood why anyone would believe Christianity means the universe was created solely for the earth. Where did they get that idea from? Where did you get that idea from?

You are evading the topic of discussion. The Christian Bible is quite clear about God creating THE Universe, the Earth and all life on Earth. There is no mention of anything creation of life outside of the Earth. Unless there is some new interpretation of the Bible that covers multiverses, and extra-terrestrial life, etc.

It doesn't mention Mars but Mars exists. So, no. I'm not reading it like you do. God gave you a brain.

Wow. Ok. You don't want to talk about it, I understand.

YOu ain't right in the head.

 

[ding]

I already did talk about it. Life outside of earth has no bearing on anything. Apparently you think this is supposed to be some gotcha moment. It's not.

 

[ding]

Why? Because you recoil at the logical conclusion of your atheism? It's hilarious when atheists make moral arguments.

There are many Christians, especially the older ones who disagree with you. But I can see that the Bible need not be an all encompassing document. So existence of other "human like" intelligent beings does not necessarily toss Christianity on it's head. It would raise a lot of questions about their relationship with God, salvation, afterlife etc.

I can't control the idiocy of others. Nowhere in the bible does it imply the earth is special.

Why? The Christian belief is that all of the universe is God's creation.

Christians overwhelmingly believe that the entire universe—including space, time, and all matter—is the direct creation of God. This fundamental belief is rooted in Scripture, specifically Genesis 1:1, which states that God created the "heavens and the earth," signifying everything that exists. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Key aspects of this belief include:

• Creation Ex Nihilo: Christians generally believe God created the universe "out of nothing," rather than organizing pre-existing material. [1, 2]
• The Trinity as Creator: Creation is often understood as the work of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, acting in love. [1]
• Purpose and Order: Christians believe the universe is not an accident but was intentionally created by God. [1]

Why would it? "Other worlds and other worldly beings" are spoken about

I wouldn't say "new interpretation" - it's been there the entire time - it reveals itself in simple terms, first through faith - and as our level of scientific understanding increases, it is still there - you just need to have the faith to see it.

As far as details - it's up to you to see it. Understanding that when the Book of Genesis was written, there weren't words to describe "The Universe" "Matter" and so forth - so the Universe was described as "The Earth". It is even clearer when it goes on to describe the formation of the solar system/planet describing it as "Land" There is a clear distinction between Earth and Land meaning that "Earth" relates to the Universe and "Land/Sea" to the solar system and the planet.

Life existing potentially existing"in other worlds" or the "heavens" is mentioned repeatedly through out the Bible.

• The Sons of God marrying the Daughters of Men and creating Giants. - Genesis
• "Angel of the LORD" - signifies a divine, other worldly being.
• The Angel Gabriel
• "Unclean spirits"

"The war in heaven between heavenly hosts"
Jesus spoke about angels and stated that "His Kingdom was not of this world"


As far as there potentially being a "multi-verse" the Book of Isaiah states that God will create a "New Heaven and a New Earth".

Most of it is there - just need to have the faith and willingness to see it.

I saw a UFO when I was 14 years old. I was returning home from a baseball game and saw this bright object hovering right near the intersection of my home and then in the blink of an eye it was gone. I will never forget that night.

Bright object? Like a light? LOL

 

[Dante]

UFO files will not contain proof of biological entities not from Earth. Why? If you have to ask, I submit you're not all there.​

Again, after reading the comments here.

Somethings deserve repeating.

Actually there has been plenty of info released:

As of May 2026, the US government has not confirmed any single UFO (UAP) case as alien technology, with recent releases, such as the 162 declassified documents on May 8, 2026, failing to provide "smoking gun" evidence of extraterrestrial life. Most investigated cases are resolved as natural phenomena, foreign surveillance, or sensor glitches. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Key Findings on Specific Cases (As of May 2026):

• The "GOFAST" Video (2016): The Pentagon's All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) announced they solved this prominent case, clarifying the object was not anomalous but likely a "trick of the eye" (parallax) flying at a high altitude, not just above the water.
• 2024 UAP Report: A congressional report detailed hundreds of new incidents but found no evidence of extraterrestrial technology.
• Apollo-Era Sightings: Recently declassified documents from NASA, the DOD, and the FBI (released May 8, 2026) include sightings from Apollo astronauts, which, upon review, are often attributed to issues like debris or lens flares.
• The "Gremlin" System Data: A new deployable sensor system designed by the Pentagon is currently capturing real-time data on UAPs to close the data gap on unsolved cases, but it has not linked any UAP to alien origin.
• "Inauthentic" Materials Investigation: The Pentagon's AARO has acknowledged finding evidence that some claims of recovered alien material are based on "fake classified program materials" or intentional disinformation, with reports on this expected to continue in 2026. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

While recent transparency efforts have released nearly 200 documents, the official stance remains that these are mostly unresolved due to limited data, rather than proof of non-human intelligence

Some of the material found in known UFO crashes have been aluminum, not of this planet.
As we use the metal as an alloy, and what has been found is 100% aluminum, and from the
1940's.
