Aliens live among us.

I highly doubt that :P. It doesn't make sense right - 1. The nearest habitable planet is atleast 100s of light years away. No way they can travel this far. 2. Even if an alien reaches Earth, don't see any reason on why they would want to transform and live amongst us.

  > The nearest habitable planet is atleast 100s of light years away. No way they can travel this far. Bet someone in the 14th century would have said about a hypersonic aircraft traveling from Europe to the Americas

    What a silly comment. 1. Birds that travel between continents exist and people in the 14th century definitely knew about them. 2. Faster than light travel violates all known laws of nature.

      Let me fix it: 2. Faster than light travel violates all laws of nature known to humans

        Okay, but when your idea of extraterrestrial life requires a "...and then magic suddenly happens" step, maybe you should rethink your premises. Basic laws of nature never changed in humankind's history.

        Your points are always saying the same thing. It’s impossible because humanity hasn’t discovered how it could be possible today It’s impossible because our physics today has a limit on how fast something can travel in line And the relies are saying well maybe we don’t know everything, just like we didnt know everything 500 years ago or 1000 years ago or 10000 years ago but thought we did

        Whatever we will learn in 500 or 1000 or 10000 years will not undo what we have already learned. You're basically hoping that some "magic" science will eventually free us from the laws of conservation of mass and energy. That won't happen, sorry.

        We thought germs were "magic" at one point and that bloodletting cured people.

        Agreed, in humankind's history
