    They would come for Trump
    because He escaped from their 
    Asylum on their planet.

  • Prolly not.  Most likely come for resources from their depleted planet. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at March 26, 2017 8:54 AM MDT

  • It wouldn't matter how they came. Our aslarmed reaction to them would probably start a war no matter what their intentions.

    They will arrive offering a false salvation and telling a great lie.

    How could they come in peace? If  true extraterrestrials came to Earth at all they wouldn't be just passing through. It would be a dedicated journey and probably one way because of the distance involved. So when they arrive they are commited to whatever reason brought them here in the first place and I doubt the reason is to help mankind. I don't think they will be true extraterrestrials. I believe they meaning an advanced species other than us, have been here the whole time. Watching us and waiting for when the time is right to make themselves known. Methink their justification for going public will be to save us. That in itself should set off alarms. No true extraterrestrials would behave that way in my opinion.

    Do you think if it were reversed, we arrived on another planet that is inhabited by humanoids, we would come with peaceful intentions?

    We would not come with the intention of war but the things we would have to do to stay might be as good as war. Think about it. We would take land and resources and set up government. What happens if our ways conflict with native ways? I'm telling you the effort it takes to get from habitable world to habitable world means you would be there to stay.

    Exactly.  What I find curious is, the few people I have had this discussion with believe our intentions would be peaceful. But, I don't believe we would be viewed any differently by the population of an alien planet as we would view them.  They would immediately view us as a threat.

  • They've been coming here for hundreds of years and they aren't friendly to us!

  • I believe you may be right.  I've seen some of the primitive drawings in caves which show space ship things coming down from the sky and drawings of unearthly creatures.

    If these aliens knew how stupid and violent we can be, they would take over to make things better.

    Yes!  So many were!  Although I think the one with Burgess Meredith is my favorite: "Time Enough At Last."

    That was a great one too!  I just started a new question asking for people's favorite episode.  I didn't want to start hijacking Whiste's thread.
