No. Interfering with other cultures is what we do best! Think of the terrible things Americans in particular would get up to if they didnt have a war of interference to keep them busy!! !

And what a beautiful world the Muslims (not in America) would create: No unbelievers to kill or enslave. A new golden age of Islam; a return to the ancient days of scientific and social progress. No need for suicide bombers; quite a relief, I'm sure. Right after they manage to kill all those nasty Sunnis, or is it Shiites, I'm sure it will be a perfect world.

america's foreign policy is precisely what has given terrorism the dimensions it has. Genocide and oppression arent justified by science either

I can tell I will receive the typical array of enlightening replies. :lol:


It is actually a wellfare study. They pray, worship, and make little trinkets of appreciation when they get something for free too.

By the way, how the hell do you remember your name to log in? :lol:

Maybe you can make an audio file of your name to log in.

Just record your name being sung by someone impersonating Smokey Robinson, and the Miracles, to the tune of "Ooo - oo-ohhhh...Baby baby..."

Okay here's the thing. There are LOTS of scientists who think intelligent life exists on other planets and these are well read, highly educated, scientifically oriented people, not just swash buckling magazine publishers. Don't they get any credence?

I myself belive intelligent aliens exist. I can't think of any reason why they would want to disturb us. Humans are having enough trouble geting along with themselves.

I doubt they would want to disturb us at this point in our history where we are so violent and crazy...if I were searching out planets to colonize, I would scratch any that had a crazed species with semi advanced weapons hell bent on killing each other off my list. However, I might consider checking out a planet with a less advanced human-like species on it, like what existed during 10,000 B.C.

And why would they do it? For the exact same reason OUR human physicists hope to do it...they don't want to become extinct. This is what motivates our scientists to move us onto other planets. They say if we spread ourselves out, our species will have more of a chance surviving longer than if we just stayed on earth.

If I were searching out a planet, I would monitor the activities of the inhabitants a bit to see how they treat each other because if they respect all intelligent life I would think they would respect me even though I am not like them but if they are killing each other off I sure wouldn't trust them not to harm me or my species.

Or, I would just look for inhabitants that are simply too backward to do much harm against my weapons even though they might be violent, so what? They wouldn't be able to harm me with their puny might, would they?

It certainly is possible species from other planets have been here in the past. The only thing that might stop them is the fact this planet is so far away from where they are since yes they would have to go that great distance to get here. So they would have all these other choices before reaching ours. My guess is most this planet jumping activity is most active in the oldest parts of the universe, if there are stars and planets, that is.

It's a matter of how many planets are truly hospitable to their kind of life, or ours, for that matter. It would need to be an adequate combination of elements for us to live there and I would think, perhaps, the ones who could live on earth would be somewhat similar to our own species or some other species that lives here. It is a matter of what you believe...is it only primate type creatures capable of evolving these types of abilities and if not, why is it other creatures don't? Look at the dinosaurs. They had all the time in the world to become a truly extraordinary species, more than one, perhaps, yet nothing. They remained virtually the same for millions of years then they died out.

They have not seen nor heard anything. Unfortunately science and scientists are not right all the time. They have alot of theories. Under certain circumstances, they are not as smart as most people lead everyone to believe either.

If people would open there minds to a theory that life is somewhere else that is not of this earth, that would be more agreeable for me.

To say other planets, space ships, traveling through space for bazillions of light years, I dont see a "scientific" possibility. You might as well be moving the sun.

You must take into account a concept called "time." You also must consider advanced technology. Of course our scientists haven't figured it out because the proof would be they have it. However, that doesn't mean there are other scientists on other planets that didn't figure it out a million years ago and still have it because they have it all figured out, see? Time means nothing to them. It only means something to us because we are earth bound. They learn to not be constricted by time. These could very well be the true elders of the Universe.

I ask you, is our true home the Universe rather than earth? Will we learn to adapt to it once completely submerged by it? Maybe our genes will become Universe Genes as opposed to Earth Genes? You wondered how we could possibly exist? That's how.

Our true home is more like the cosmos. Some things within it that science cannot interpret. The next new frontier may not be exploration of the universe. It may be things within. And perhaps outside of it. Your "space ship" may very well be your own mind. A place where the 3rd dimensional views of science, and the mass of substance cannot go.

That's not good enough for science. They will have us on other planets in a micro fractional second of the Universe's eye blink. Wait and see. :lol:
