There is currently more observational evidence to support the existence of
UFos as a phenomenon worthy of study than there is observational evidence 
to support the existence of an alleged being, a supreme being...

I would say, the probability that UFO's really exist is higher...

I would certainly support the call to see if we can get David Jacobs 
online. I for one would certainly like to stimulate more discussion on 
current abduction research. You may be aware that I have been 
suggesting the investigation of psychological explanations before we 
commit ourselves to more exotic explanations. However, this is only a 
working, testable hypothesis. Whatever, the outcome the subject is 
fascinating and demands research.

I would say they are both improbable...but UFOs are easier to look for. :)
