I know what you mean. But what would it take to convince you? I think I'd have to meet a frickin alien to believe. Maybe if they made Washington DC disappear or something.
I for one will believe when I see a large number of independent scientists from relevant fields agree.
But putting that aside. I just wanna say. Even if this wasn't a hoax. It still doesn't in itself prove aliens. Or rather, finding that kind of body doesn't, based on appearance alone, prove aliens.
Unusual isotope signatures might prove extraterrestrial origin, again if it weren't a hoax I mean, but appearance alone doesn't.
People always act like it's an alien and it's real until proven otherwise. That's totally unscientific. It's nothing to start with. Research and analysis eventually provides clues as to origins. But it doesn't start off true and alien. It starts off unconfirmed and nothing beyond what it is at its most basic level.
Like how people see lights in the sky and assume aliens until proven otherwise. That's wrong. You see lights in the sky and all you've proven is that you, and only you, believed you saw lights in the sky. That's it. And if multiple people see lights in the sky, you've proven there were unusual lights that appeared to come from the direction of the sky. But again, that's it. It's not supposed to work the other way around. It's not supposed to start already being proof of aliens and needing to he disproven. Aliens aren't the default.
Richard Dawkins, who I'm not a huge fan of mainly because of his overly antagonistic attitudes. As I recall he coined the term "God of the gaps". Where everything is already proof of God requiring science to disprove it. And how that assertion is wrong. A gap in knowledge isn't God until that gap is filled. That gap is a gap until its filled.
Some time ago I came up with my own spin on that term which I call the ghost of the gaps and the grays of the gaps. Which is the same idea, but referring to the phenomenon where people assume everything is either paranormal activity like ghosts or psychics or esp or aliens until disproven.
