Looking at all living creatures on our own planet almost everything alive attacks and kills. (Even many plants somehow developed different defense mechanisms). So it is my belief that the highest probability is that aliens wont be a bit friendly.
Likely not in our lifetime but future generations may see this as a reality.
I would like to hear if it's yes or no or we are alone from you and logical reasons.
Similar numbers of people have claimed that they have seen "Bigfoot," that Elvis is still alive and that Barak Obama had any qualifications to be president.Then how do you explain the millions of people on Earth that have claimed to see UFO, greys, E.T.'s e,tc? Als9o what about the thousands of folks that claim to have been abducted? Far too many have accounts of these things for it to be untrue? :2razz:
Once agian, you are speculating. You assume that a great deal of space means that a thing must exist somewhere in it.There are over a sextillion planets in our visible universe alone. The visible universe in comparison to the universe as a whole is roughly the size of a grain of sand compared to the planet Earth. So, as I said before, probability would disagree with you.
I believe that Jack Nicholson represented a Democrat president in Mars Attacks.If Aliens are met in Washington DC, by Republicans, they will be hostile and we will face a spaced War.
If Aliens are met in Washington DC, by Democrats, there will be peace, popcorn, hamburger, and Nachos. We will learn to straighten out all terrible problems caused by the eight horrible years of George and Dick.
:2razz: :lol:
Shirley, you exaggerate, the numbers of sightings are not that large, there are only a few stories that get repeated a lot....:2razz:
Any aliens arriving here are likely to take our mineral wealth, our most attractive women, and our fattest sheep, and then leave...:2razz:
bad mushrooms.....what else?Maybe I am a bit high on the numbers but tell explain to me how sooo many people that do know each other, live in seperate states, countries, etc. have all saw the exact same things? And it is not just tabloid press there are REAL Newspapers that have reported such things. All these people cannot be lying or making stuff up. Also watch some shows or read some books about people that have been abducted. A lot of them had exact same thing happen to them. How do you explain this?

Seriously, I can't think of a single physical or biological resource that would be beyond the ability of a society capable of interstellar travel to manufacture, up to and including habitable worlds.How did you come to that conclusion? What if they wanted some resource and it was easier to annihilate us in the click of a button rather than ask?

There is some proof that our own gov. has tried to cover up and hush the whole U.F.O. sightings. So if there is nothing real about them why would our own gov. try to cover it up? Why would they even say anything about it?

I would assume that they would be capable of recognizing intelligence, since we have technology and civilization unlike most other species. We might be the bottom rung on the intelligence hierarchy, but I think they'd be able to differentiate between humans and, say, giraffes.
I think they will be fully capable of measuring intelligence, absolutely. We are certainly capable of noting the difference in intelligence between an elephant and a lizard, so I am sure they'll be far more capable than we are of evaluating our level of intelligence.
But I am trying to see things from the perspective of these creatures that are far more intelligent than we are. If they are enough more intelligent, they won't think there is that much difference between a giraffe and humans. It all depends on how much more intelligent than us they are.
I believe they will have to be so much more intellegent than we are that they will consider the difference between us and a giraffe inconsequential. From our perspective, that is outrageous. I think they will find our outrage amusing, pat us on our heads and then proceed to dissect us.
Let me put it this way: Suppose we use some measure, we'll call it the Universal Intelligence Scale or UIS, to gauge intelligence. Suppose giraffes average 25, dogs and cats 35, elephants and dolphins 60 and humans 100. I believe space travelling aliens would measure something like 1000 or more on such a scale. The difference between them and us will entirely outpace the difference between us and giraffes.
There might be some 'specialist' from among their population that thinks we're interesting at some point. What that specialist does to us in order to study us depends on alot of things, but I doubt they'll be considering whether or not we'll be harmed in the process.
So, yes, they'll be capable of recognizing intelligent life, and to them, we just won't even be in the running.
you drinking already?I imagine they'd have varied personalities like humans, like most animals.

I think they would be 100% non-violent for some reason and would just say... "Uhhhh ok. You guys messed up. We share nothing with you." Then just disapear for a few thousand years.I think they will be friendly, yet cautious.
But when, in our own paranoia, we start shooting at them, I suspect they will get a little pissed off and annhailiate us all.
