So we just had a long philosophical discussion about the possibilities of other intelligent life, and how they would appear to us if they chose to come here. Lots of interesting discussion. IMHO, if another species wanted to visit us and make contact, it would happen just as we see it described here. They would study us, then probably reveal themselves to our highest forms of government/society, and when those informed felt the population was ready, there'd be an announcement. Anyhow, should be interesting to see what you people think.

See that's what we were discussing in our conversation yesterday. Let's assume an alien race wanted to come to Earth to take it over to take our resources/enslave us. For this to happen they would have to:
a. Have the resources to relocate their entire race to Earth b. Have some reason to leave their own planet (used up all of their resources?) c. Need to kill all of us or enslave us, or find something else to do with us (who knows?) Where it gets interesting is, if an alien race was advanced enough to have the means to relocate their entire race to Earth, would they not have already figured out how to not have to rely on mined resources and such from their own planet? |
