It takes more faith to believe that there's been no ETs involved in designing mankind (dna mixed with earth species), or manipulating mankind, somewhat helping mankind, and being very involved. I don't have that kind of faith. I am totally skeptical of man's ability to create some of the wonders that exist without ET's help.
There's the type of faith that turns people to religion, because beginnings that seem plausible are not acceptable. But all the incredible things religion wants us to believe are just plain impossible for me to believe because they don't make sense or even come close to explaining our past, the differences in people, climates, etsc., crops and animals, etc., languages.
The only thing that makes any sense in the bible is the Tower of Babel story where man's languages became mixed to keep man from reaching the stars. Now that there seems to be an international language, English, and we're reaching out to the stars, Babel has proved to be correct in its logic, so maybe the creatures who mixed the languages think we're ready to travel in space.
