Does aliens exit?

Scientists have found underground caves on earth that have about the same conditions as mars and have found microscopic life forms in these caves, and as humans we had to have started as (protists) one celled creatures believed to live mostly in water so my opinion is how can Earth be the only planet that sustains life forms that we know of.

But there is, as yet, no firm scientific proof. After all, someone must be the first form of intelligent life in the universe; it may well be us.

I believe there are. What's the point of having the other planets if nothing goes on on them? Everyone has their own opinions though, there had been many claims of alien sightings such as mysterious crop circles appearing at night in Europe.

The universe is a huge place.

However, this does not mean aliens are flying around making weird designs in cornfields or flying saucer shaped space vehicles, or even abducting people.

Life most likely does exist in other parts of the universe, however.

We have no evidence of intelligent beings from other planets who have visited the Earth, movies like "ET" and "Independence Day" notwithstanding.

However, "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence". The fact that we cannot prove that "aliens" exist does not mean that we can prove that "aliens" DO NOT exist. The "U" in "UFO" stands for "UNIDENTIFIED". If there's a strange light in the sky, we don't know what it is.

As much as the little kid in me would like to believe in Martians and aliens in flying saucers, the scientist in me knows that it would be extraordinarily unlikely that they have ever visited Earth.

I think there are. But nobody knows for sure. Why would we be the only living things in our universe?

Actually, scientists don't know yet if there is aliens out there. The Hubble telescope can see really far away that doesn't mean that there isn't aliens out there. I believe that there is aliens out there.

So far, aliens from another world are still a fantasy. Human imagination is a powerful tool that helps us with so many things in our real world. It can be interesting and fun to use your imagination to create, solve problems, and imagine what could be. Until there are facts to support alien life forms that are from outer space, there is nothing wrong with the fantasy as long as you know where it separates from reality.

Do leperchauns exist?

The leprechaun is a small fairy with a grotesque appearance. He is usually dressed in green with a leather apron, silver buckled shoes, a red cap, and spectacles on the end of his nose. Leprechauns are known for being shoemakers. Interestingly, leprechauns will never make a pair of shoes; they will make only one shoe at a time. Although they are quick to shun humans, leprechauns like to play tricks on them. If a leprechaun is caught (a difficult feat), he must reveal the location of his hidden treasure. If he is guiding someone to his treasure, and that person takes their eyes off him for even a second, the leprechaun will disappear.

Why do Freethinkers believe that Jesus Christ never existed except as a Messianic idea or a solar deity?

The Catholic Encyclopedia defines Freethinkers as "those who, abandoning the religious truths and moral dictates of the Christian Revelation, and accepting no dogmatic teaching on the ground of authority, base their beliefs on the unfettered findings of reason alone." So, Freethinkers are those who seek the truth about religion, rather than relying on dogmatic teaching.

On this definition, not all Freethinkers belive that Jesus was a myth. Many believe that he was a real person who lived in the first century CE, although he was not divine and may not even have intended to start a religious movement.

There is strong evidence that the biblical Joshua son of Nun, was originally a solar deity. In Egyptian mythology, Nun was the primordal Egyptian god and father of the Egyptian sun god, Ra; Joshua could command the sun and moon to stand still until the battle was finished (Joshua 10:12); and so on. There is also potentially a thread of Joshua as solar deity through the Bible from the time of the Exodus right up until post-Exilic times. The name Jesus is a modified Greek translation for Joshua (Hebrew: Yeshua, a late form of Yehoshua). Thus, it is possible to speculate that the worship of Jesus had its antecedents in solar worship.

Michael Grant (The Emperor Constantine) says that, at the time of Constantine, Jesus was often called Sol Justitiaeand depicted by statues resumbling the young Apollo or Sol (Sun gods). Clement of Alexandria wrote of Jesus driving his chariot across the heavens like the sun god. Even naming the Christian holy day, Sunday, and commemorating the birth of Jesus on December 25th, appear to associate Jesus with the sun god.

Another answer

Because there is not a single shred of reliable historical evidence to suggest that Jesus ever existed, and the stories told about him are remarkably similar to those told about other Messiahs and sun-gods around (and before) that time.

Who are the characters in the richer the poorer fable?

What is a vampire group called?

A vampire group is called a coven.

It is actually called a 'Brood'.

Brood - A group of vampires gathered around a leader (usually their sire).

Sire - The parent-creator of a vampire, used both as the female and male form.

A brood may (over a long time!) become a 'clan' by virtue of lineage, bloodline.

Clan - A group of vampires who share certain mystic and physical characteristics.

A 'coven' is only correctly used in terms of witches... --noun: an assembly of witches,esp. a group of thirteen. However since more people know more about witches than vampires and since 'coven' also means 'gathering/assembly', the word coven are sometimes (wrongly) used for a group of vampires too.
