Nobody knows for 100% certainty that there is intelligent life out there in the universe somewhere.

Until a resident from Klaxxon-5 comes knocking on my door, or they beam me up, I just don't think that there are others out there.

Why do we always assume that if there were intelligent life out there, that they are going to look like us, or even be friendly?

That's awfully arrogant of us.

For all we know, that *if* intelligent life were to exist out there, they could look like giant spiders.

And maybe they don't want us messing up their planet, like we messed up our own.

But as I said, I don't think that there is intelligent life out there.

Simple celled organisms, sure, but beings that look like us, walk like us, talk like us?

Nope.

Not buying it.

Agreed but people could still be alive.

Or certain agencies don't want their mistakes or vulnerabilities revealed.

The family had a lot of ties to shady people in the crime world through business dealings, political dealings and girlfriends.   I have always assumed it was the family who didn't want the truth  to come out.

When you think about it, shouldn't they have led the charge to find out who did it?  They didn't and I have to think it is because they knew and didn't want the facts known.  So, I think the family are the ones who have kept this under cover all these years, and NO I don't think we will ever get the real details.   But I do think there are a number of people who know the truth.

Plaid Pants2, for your sake I hope you are right but if you ever meet one face to face, remember, you are the one who said they don't exist.

Who is responsible for the assassination of John F. Kennedy is SO important for Americans to know the truth. Jackie Kennedy gave her opinion about who she thought was responsible - and I agree with her. The Warren Commission lied to us!!!! After JFK's death -- America was never the same.

@kivah I understand your point,but it’s been over 50 years.I believe we have more important things to be concerned with.

 I’m much more concerned with Islamic terrorists, racism & sexism than I am about who killed JFK 54 years ago! A lot of bad things have happened in the world since 1963.

I always wondered why everyone decided that Oswald did it....what happened to innocent until proven guilty?.....

He didn't admit it and he never had a trial....

He never had a trial because he was shot dead two days after being arrested and arraigned.
