Aliens

What's your stance on extraterrestrials? I personally have no doubt that they are out there in the universe, and I think it's pretty likely that they visited our planet, given the age of the universe and age of our solar system.


I believe there is good evidence that aliens are examining the earth right now. I'm not talking about shitty youtube videos of lights off in the distance at night. I'm talking about a British government agent tasked with collecting UFO reports who collected a report from the British airforce of a large object on the radar moving really slowly and then accelerating to several times the speed of their fastest planes before disappearing. I have yet to dig this up, but when I will I will post it.

As for the theory that aliens influenced the early days of our civilization, I think there is some viability to it. The only evidence I really accept are the ancient references to stars that were not visible until modern times, and the numerous depictions of flying "boats" used by gods. There were also some models found very similar to the shape of modern day airplanes, some of which have been tested and actually flew.

As for the likelihood that aliens will destroy the earth, I don't see it. First off, invading a planet (especially one as advanced as ours) is much harder than it seems. The aliens would have to worry about pathogens, weather they may not know how to deal with, greater distance from their resources, and the inhabitants capturing and using their own technology. Also, there's the fact that on a grand scale, using renewable energy is much easier and more practical than traveling to a far away planet to mine it for a non-renewable resource. The only reason I can think of for aliens to travel to another planet with life is to study it and possibly exchange knowledge with the natives.
