Hmmm,

There has been an alien on the white house lawn numerous times in the last 50 years.

Given that the earth and all thats on it is a product of the universe, why should ET's spacecraft consist of anything different.

Now, I cant say that there are aliens, but I can't say that there are not.
I can only say that there are no aliens because I have not seen one, or that there are aliens because I have seen one.

Surely the burden of proof is a two way street.

Prove that there are or prove that there are not.

Either way, INMHO, neither side has the moral highground.
