Can you "choose" to believe in space-aliens?

Don't you think that people who DO believe in space-aliens have been CONVINCED by either their own personal experience or by the testimony of what they consider credible witnesses?

And people who DON'T believe in space-aliens are simply NOT CONVINCED?

The answer is maybe-yes / maybe-no

Currently humanity is deciding whether to believe in space-aliens.
i believe we are choosing to believe in space-aliens, and if so, soon we will have normal visits from space-aliens.

If we choose to not believe in space-aliens then we won't see them. We won't interact with them. Our space, and their space won't coincide.

That's fair.

I'm just saying, BELIEVING space-aliens are "possible" (is-not-the-same-as) BELIEVING in space-aliens.

For example, if someone told you they received a message from space-aliens (gods), it would behoove you to remain highly SKEPTICAL of such a claim.

right up to the point that you start receiving the same messages.
... then skeptical just doesn't cut it anymore.

And at that point, I'll be convinced.

But I won't expect anyone else to believe me UNLESS they "start receiving the same messages" themselves.

I don't think aliens are a good example.
Or do you know or even believe that there wont ever be some?

i believe a better example is the fey.
(or what Tolkien incorrectly described as elves.)

They live and populate the earth like humans do.
Will we ever believe in them?

Or, there are large creatures that live in our skies.
We would say, right now, incorrectly, that they are made of air.
They play with airplanes every now and then.
People who have seen them say they look like a big swirling cloud of air with a face.

They are all over the place, and humans don't even classify them as life.
Will we ever believe in them?

love it :D

It's the perfect example.

I don't believe in any particular space-aliens (gods).

I do believe that some, non-specific space-aliens (gods) MIGHT be discovered at some point in the future.

If you ask me "is this or that specific space-alien (gods) logically possible?" - YOU'RE GOING TO NEED TO BE VERY SPECIFIC.
