Thread: Do you beleive in . . . aliens?

Just to butt in, we already have found life in the form of bacteria, and bacteria is life, and it's in space which makes it extra-terrestrial, and what about all the frozen ice on mars, some form of life is probaly present.

No we haven't. This is false.

I haven't read everyone's posts in this thread so forgive me if I reiterate...

Extraterrestrials exist. Given how young the human race is and how far we've come technologically, it is safe to assume that older races exist and they have technology superior to ours. Scientists have been discovering interesting things regarding life. For instance, they discovered an organism that lives and thrives in arsenic, which is poisonous to just about everything else living. Another example is an organism that was found frozen in a lake in Alaska. They said this specimen was 32,000 years old, but that's not the best part. When they defrosted it, it became alive. Just as if nothing had happened to it. This is the first time anything like this has ever been witnessed.

The same man who found that organism also has been deep in research on some rare meteorites that have the potential to prove life can exist elsewhere in the universe. He found bacteria basically on this meteorite, along with dozens of amino acids, which are the building blocks of life. Another interesting tidbit is that he claims the bacteria from the meteorite resembles a bacteria that we have here on earth...

This makes sense for one reason. Given that it is so difficult to find a planet capable of sustaining intelligent life, or so it seems, littering the cosmos with the building blocks of life ensures that life will exist where it can. Or it will wait until the planet is ready, surviving in extreme conditions until it can evolve.

The reason that they don't just land and say hi is because they have been watching us, they know the majority of people will react in a stupid, impulsive manner. They have been around for a long, long time. Our inability to play nice with others is the reason. If you all look deep enough into the subject, you will find that not once has a suspected UFO ever shot down another plane, or fire a weapon at anyone. They always either outmaneuver our planes, or disable our weapons. These are signs of a mature race. They obviously have far superior tech and could crush us whenever they please, but life is precious. Especially complex life. Unfortunately complex life has its drawbacks... Like war, paranoia, distrust...

When we are ready to show good hospitality and can demonstrate a use of our technology that shows we care about more than just ourselves, then they make contact with humanity as a whole.

That awkward moment when you unleash a horrible plague for defrosting 32,000 year old organisms.
