So now we have a former Apollo astronaut coming out and saying that yes, the earth has been visited by aliens.  I'm just wondering what its going to take for people to start taking this seriously.

    People don`t want to take it seriously because it represents change. Imagine the chaos it would create if  people were shown the real truth.

    From the interview it`s obvious that these beings are very advanced and could wipe us out at any moment.

    Ive met one. Spent the night with her.

    (Im now having her babies!)

    Oh...I thought this was about the new x-files movie.   No I do not believe that ET's that have visited here.  If they had they would have recognized that our species would be to dangerous to allow to get off this rock and they would have wiped us out.

    There is an alarming amount of people who do not believe dinosaurs walked the Earth.

    So, no, a lot of people don't want to believe, even when there's quantifiable evidence.

    Why the fuck does everyone assume that Aliens are far more technologically advanced than us? Because they have big heads and little frames?

    And how can an astronaut asses that a foreign species who has visited us a couple of times, have the capability to wipe us out?

    Eh, I personally believe plenty of ET's have visited us, for what reasons? No one can say, movies like to stress they're plotting to destroy humanity and such.

    What if they're actually protecting us from unknown dangers of the universe? Perhaps forces our technology can't detect, watching us to make sure we're alright. Heck maybe they're on a patrol route that passes through earth or something :P

    I personally believe if their are ET's traveling the universe, they've probably come across many other species, and have developed certain guidelines I guess as far as interacting with new species, or maybe they just don't think we're worth coming into contact with, kind of like watching animals in a park or a zoo. Maybe they think we're to dangerous or hostile to try and make contact, who knows.

    I believe this mr. astronaut, im assuming he talks with important government peeps who would know stuff about this.

    Err because a species that can realistically transvers the galaxy to reach us [several times allegidly] will be a LOT more technically advanced than someone who can barly get a few people to attend a 3 day trip to the moon.

     

    Also they will have space superioraty when it comes to attacking us becuase they can just launch projectiles from deep space at any target on Earth and there is nothing we can do to stop them, because once again we can barely leave Earth's atmosphere.

    Another great example of Moore's Law. Give people access to that much space (developers and users alike) and they'll find uses for it that you can never imagine. "640K ought to be enough for anybody" - Bill Gates 1981

    lol

    The disk shaped ufo phenomena has been around since ancient times.  Im sure if they wanted to do anything they would of done it a LONG time ago.  And all the reports on aliens are non hostile.

    Were barbaric compared to them. (except in looks :D)

    Because they have mastered interplanetary travel and anti gravity

    Because we have enough nukes to blow up the surface of the earth 15 some odd times.  Imagine what they have.

    He was protesting the war.  And he isnt moving because he doesnt feel pain.  He's a professional meditator, he isnt inside his body.

    Ok, if you do the math it's more or less impossible for there NOT to be other intellegent life out there HOWEVER the likely hood of another species surviving to the point it could travel interstellar space is pretty low. (take us for example...we are either going to roast ourselves inside our own atmosphere or incinerate one another in thermo nuclear fire) (Carl Sagan worked it out once)

    Now assuming one of these "advanced" species could even find us, the galaxy is a bit large...Hmmm well what would be the point of NOT contacting us? The amount of resources it would take to get here would make it pure insanity not to.

    If the object was to exploit something here on our world then they would be playing a dangerous game. One thing our species has demonstrated throughout its entire history is our unwavering capacity for war and destruction and our uncanny ability to adapt and survive in just about any environment. "I piddy da fools who mess wit us"

    Or...they could be scared that we will go after all their alien chicks....but thats sorta disturbing to think about...I can see 3 rednecks and some aliens now........maybe they should leave us alone lol, would you contact us?

    How long would it take our species to spread across this galaxy if we ever got our hands on FTL technology? There is a scary thought.

    Oh well...one less Darwin Award winner breathing air.   Cold statement?  Maybe...but his suicide accomplished nothing.

  • TechleoTechleo Member Posts: 1,984

     Actually it accomplimed preciely what he set out to. He made a impression on people and that in and of itself is quite a powerful thing. Mind you we can go round and round over whether that matters...

    Because it would take faster to light travel or the ability to bend time space for the nearest inhabitants of the next star to visit us.

    Last time I checked, Nasa hasn't really perfected this a whole lot...but  i could be wrong.

    No matter how small, his suicide did accomplish something or no one today would even know about it.

    The idea behind something is much more powerfull then the action.   If you have ever seen it, V in V for Vendetta is a great example.

    As for the alien part i agree with some other people here there is life out there but in my opinion not very intelligent, probably intelligent in the way we think animals are intelligent but not intelligent in the human sense.

    WARNING GRAPHIC LINK FOLLOWS

     I believe, Something is going on, however before we start thinking Aliens are our space brothers and will lead us to an enlightened age the full truth of what they may be capable of should be exposed.

    Molecules can be manipulated. 

     

    Nature proves this over and over and over again.  Humans do it constantly.  Plants, life in general. 

    The only thing preventing us from being in control of our atmosphere, and life in general, is technology and misplaced human morales. 

    We can make bacteria that can convert carbondioxide into breathable oxygen. 

    We have a long track record of adapting our enviroment to us.  Our ability to addapt is almost limitless because of the means by wich we do it.     

    Wish Darkfall would release.

    What Teala said about he new X-files movie, I feel isn't even that far from the thruth, I mean the whole Alien/Ufo thing has gone to a pretty low, X-files years back made it re-life somewhat again, then it died down abit again and now suddenly we see all these new topics (not meant to OP) but overall on the internet seeing suddenly new confesions from high ranked people from military source's, seems to me X-Files is pushing this hype to be honost.

    But to answer somewhat to your title

    I don't need to WANT , but I simply DO believe,  I don't think we just a random thing that happend in this universe, I am sure there is life out there, is it life as we would be able to understand it, probably not, but I'm really sure there is more then just this little blue planet with it's sun and moon, I mean there are like   billion solar systems in the universe.

    IF? we really have been visited then those who visited ARE far more advance'd then we are. I mean thats just logic, look what we are able to do in space, we barely are able to reach mars, and now we have but thats still not a human setting foot there, and this is going to take some time, so if some alien presence has visited us it's only logical to understand they are far more advance'd then we are.

    But I am pretty sure there is allot of perhaps far more primitive life out there in the universe. I don't necessary believe in the Grey's (you know the standart look of a Alien big eye's big head) but also not am not totaly rulling it out, kinda in the middle in this.

    I don't believe in aliens,

    It is possible but being possible does not mean it has to exist, I will only believe in aliens when we have physical evidence of a life form that we are sure is extraterrestrial.

    And on a side note being technologically advanced does not have to mean advanced in everyway, assuming there were intelligent aliens visiting earth, they could be a peaceful or noncombative species that doesn't fight for some reason so their weapons tech would be practically nonexistant.  Not saying they couldn't make weapons it is just not readily availible, like how stone-age man had better spear throwing tech then we do, since we do not focus on it nor need it, though we could make it and make it better.

    Don't you worry little buddy. You're dealing with a man of honor. However, honor requires a higher percentage of profit

    My favorite kind of math is the kind that is based around presuppositions and numbers that somebody made up based on postulation.

     

    As for the "there's more evidence for UFO's than there is of the Holocaust" line from the first page...what a load of crap...so there are a few million jews with pictures of UFO's and aliens?  And are the pictures super grainy and hard to make out?  Because that's the only kind of picture that an alien spacecraft seems to be capable of taking.

     

    Apparently, aliens are not very photogenic.

    Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.
