Ideas like warp drives can exist using our current laws of physics, the power is just restrictive at this point in time. Why is it so difficult to believe that our science cannot currently explain all facets of the universe yet?
Why do we search for life in the universe? Even microbial? Why is it so difficult to believe that other species can't have a thirst for all knowledge or a curiosity like we have? Or perhaps we are a delicacy, no different than some of the expensive tasty things that we enjoy. You won't know until you meet them and ask them.
UFO's do exist. Much of which occurs naturally (lights in the skies, etc). What you are referring to is alien craft. There is no way to verify whether a UFO is an alien craft unless it lands and aliens pop out and greet you. Its good to be skeptical, its another thing to be closed minded.

I never made the statement that science currently explains all facets of the universe. If anything, I've stated the opposite. Being skeptical through logical thought is not the same as being close-minded. I concur that deep-space travel is entirely within the realm of possibility.
However, I disagree that if an advanced species were capable of such a thing, they'd be using it to travel to Earth for any reasons that seem logical. And further, to do so without formally revealing themselves is a rather whimsical notion.
Further, we have groups tasked with monitoring for extraterrestrial communication, such as SETI. We're capable of mapping dark energy via cosmic microwave background radiation levels, capable of seeing beyond the scope of our own galaxy, but yet incapable of providing any definitive proof that we're being visited by life from another planet?
Sorry, I just don't buy it.
