Strangely enough, my grandfather is also in the hospital, which is screwing with my mood. I probably overreacted to you CI, for which I apologize.

Boys, I think it's time for a group hug.


CI, is that your hand on my ass? :D


I think that's your own hand.....:eek:

*crash*

That was the sound of this thread being completely derailed.

Probably someone that isn't paying much attention...

Ummm, aliens will lead to the creation of new religions, worshipping said aliens. Look, we have alien oriented cults and religions already, and we don't even know if they exist or not.

We have alien-oriented cults precisely because we don't know if they exist, I would imagine. If they actually showed up I think the people in those cults would be faintly embarrassed, especially when those aliens had no knowledge of who they were.

If aliens are watching us right now, they probably aren't that impressed. We wouldn't make good subjects for them

:D

I resemble that remark. Why would aliens want worshippers? They'd either smite us down and rule, or smack around the idiots trying to worship them. Well, at least that's what I'd do if I was an alien.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

I don't see why they would be interested in ruling us at all. Invading and taking our resources, sure, but to try and govern? Don't see it.

I'd hope that any species/race intelligent and advanced enough to use interstellar travel would be way above the mundane concerns of ruling a less advanced race. I'd like to believe they would help get us to their level.

I can dream, can't I?

True enough. Maybe they want out water like in Ice Pirates.

Pfft. Saturn's rings are right there.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.
