What if the so called "Aliens" are already living amongst us?
WE have our own, very narrow, perception of "LIFE". There might be another form of life that are not recognized by us. There exists a good example in Christian belief: The Holy Gost, unseen yet ever present. Perhaps this form of life can best be described as "Presence"?

If you believe in God and the bible then aliens do exist in this context. Man is so arrogant to think that we know about the world and it's possibilities. We are only scatching the surface. When we know how everything works, we will be with God. Untill then we can only try to understand this world. Remember that some of the most brillant scientist like Einstein and Newton had stated that this world is much too complex to just happen. God surely had a hand in it's creation.

Biology is the study of life on earth. Does not cover ghosts. Check the paranormal section.
Xeno biology is the theoretical science of alien life. None confirmed as far as I know. If there is alien life outside our solar system we may never know. Interstellar distances are formidable.
I note there are plenty of people who claim alien abductions etc, but little compelling evidence same as ghosts, goblins, spirit realm.

The bible tells us there is indeed a whole spiritual dimension inhabited by spiritual beings (angels & demons) in addition to the Holy Ghost. Many have claimed contact with such entities. Yes indeed ' the Aliens are among us'.

The 2 questions Chris Anderson asks in this video are-- how many universes are there and why can't we see evidence of alien life. Your question above raises the possibilities. The dilemma we have is that we rely on physical, material evidence while simultaneously we have ability to believe there is more. Personalities, while yet human, will always experience mystery.
The answers to your question and those of Anderson, I believe, involve spiritual realities. Man's equipment and formulas cannot measure or detect spirit. We only observe results of spiritual activity and deeper vision involves faith vision. At the end of all deduction, research, and rationale, what else is left?
Only revelation to man can inform just how many universes there are and give a fair estimate of the number of planets, some of which are now peopled and some destined to habitation and still some not yet formed. Infinity is not possible for man to understand and to see!
To your question I'd say yes, it certainly could be true that non-material spiritual personalities may be here observing us mortals and many could be very interested in helping us. I do not accept a definition of alien as a being to do harm. They could be busy searching for ways to help our scientific exploration and to find ways to uplift mankind's values and to upgrade our concepts of meanings and destiny.
Someone has already said man cannot live by bread alone!
It does not seem right to rely totally on material, physical, scientific evidence to form one's beliefs and desires. Man can think and desire and those are profound gifts, indeed!
What do others say?
Peace,
