Defending skepticism seems reasonable. There's been no hard evidence brought forward. Biting on what has been presented to this point would be premature, and require a little some going out on a limb. So that's fine. I lean towards skepticism still, but there's a lot of smoke of late so I'm interested in seeing where this all leads. When stories from purportedly qualified/connected sources begin to overlap, it seems worth looking into further.
However, I think there's a segment of people who could be presented with literal extraterrestrials and they would still deny it/refuse to acknowledge the validity of it, and it could arguably be said that these hardline skeptics suffer from similar delusion as the UFO fanatics, just with the opposite perspective. And they could stand to recieve a little more flak for living in a bubble where they cling to familiarity and limitation and refuse to acknowledge the greater possibilities that exist to preserve their sense of safety and control.

Sorry, I didn't realize we needed to restate our positions every time this thread got bumped. I have already mentioned it on several occasions, but for brevity, see post #2.
