Then why not believe?
I just finished watching "What the #@$! do we know" and one of the physicists interviewed said something that really struck home. I'm going to paraphrase it as I can't remember the exact line, "Don't live in the "know," live in the mystery."
Absence of proof means very little when dealing with things of this nature. It would be nice if Man throughout history had taken better notes and written stuff down. It would be nice if those that witnessed had been equipped to record their experiences with video, proper photography and what not, but it's not imperative to believe.
There are lots of things I don't have the answers to and as such, I can't write it all off as the works of kooks, oddballs and charlatans. I'm not a full-fledged, tin-foil hat believer, but I certainly realize that there is a bit of mystery to the world that I'm not privy to.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, moderate belief is fine. It harms none, so why not believe?
