Just because you say it doesn't make it so.
Unless you can show why this is the case, it is just an ad hominem.
But you demonstrated it was so by refuting empirical evidence whilst declaring yourself an empiricist.
Really? Please show me some of this evidence that speaks to intelligently constructed vehicles.
I'm not denying everything. Just your assumption that these phenomenon HAVE to be little green men.
They don't have to be but the other explanations that they are secret government projects or extra dimensional are even more bizarre and less concordant with the known facts about UFO phenomena and the three degrees/levels of contact that has reportedly been made by all kinds of people the world over.
From simply observing non human intelligent machines on radar or on video or through the naked eye to actual face to face contact with non human entities...some images of these non human entities do exist on the net and whilst the natural tendancy is to immediately scoff it is better to look then deny yourself the chance of spotting something truly unbelievable....
First of all... why would you think that they are not owned by us?
Secondly...what makes you so sure they are indeed spacecraft?
Well firstly then if we do own them why the hell are we using crappy and technologically inferior chemical rockets and aircraft?
They are likely space flight capable if they are not of this planet's origin....I thought that rather obvious.
Plausible, sure. Affirmed fact? Far from it.
I shall answer your question below....
Distance.
Distance in the 4 dimensional spatial universe is an illusionary thing to those subjective and limited to it.
It is theoretically possible that we could create an artificial wormhole to literally allow us to circumnavigate space and time through an extradimensional tunnel between two loci/point.
Secondly and perhaps more conservatively due to time dilation effects travelling at nearly the speed of light would make even journeys of dozens of light years pass in what might seem for the passengers months...and there are plenty of star systems nearby within 50 light years.
Well, considering that I'm unwilling to accept what amounts to an assumption lacking in evidential backing, I'd say my...paradigm...is very scientific indeed.
Again, it's not my fault that you don't have the required evidence...
I have a theory based on scientific evidence and empirical evidence and witness reports.
I merely pointed out that the Drake Equation is lacking in statistical backing seeing as we do not, in fact, know with any reasonable certainty how common life is in the universe. Have a look: Drake equation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I did offer to go through it with you in more detail.
I would like you to make the most conservative estimate and explain why and then I will like wise if you wish.
Use this...
Space: SETI: The Drake Equation
But do you claim that what you were doing was not cold reading?
Cause... It sure looked like it.
I've done it myself on several occations and it can be a lot of fun.
I don't claim...I know it wasnt.
