If So Certain of Alien life Why Send Signals?

Well obviously if I was already included I wouldn't be asking to be included.

What I meant was..... you can ask to be included in the Gala at some government posh dinner..... or whatever.... but you are not even on the waiting list.

The people involved in these things are of a very select group. Not a chance that you are going to be allowed to even see the agenda. This is all "black ops" stuff.

Try to drive up to area 51 and see how welcome you are.

Oh, so you have no evidence at all to support your comments. How disappointing.

Oh... so you are at a computer, hooked up to the internet...where you can learn anything from how to change your front wheel bearings to the song a particular rare bird makes, to making a wreath for Christmas... You post on this site and argue, debate and comment on different topics....

YET..... you cannot place your fingers on the home row of your key board and think of anything to search that would give you pages of search results on this topic??????

Seriously.....when do you need me to come over and show you how to fix the blinking "12:00" on your VCR....LOL

Actually it's worse than that. Analog signal might be interpretable by an alien race but digital is just so much static without an appropriate decoder, and most if not all of our traffic is digital now.

So, they can move faster than the speed of light, or interdenominational..travel light years away..zip around in lit up crafts....but they cannot decode our various communication signals?

Time to think outside the box here, don't ya think?

But surely they need some low level grunts to do the menial stuff. "select groups" generally dont like emptying bins

I did that, but all the sites I found said this was an incredibly silly conspiracy theory with no basis in reality. I need one of those special confirmation bias filters to get to the right thinking websites.

Usually it is all compartmentalized and military based... so...you know.... "need to know basis", or "beyond your pay grade"...

Doubt if they need any grunts... they are the government you know.

But... go ahead and try.

You cannot be the best at running a search engine then...

Let me give you a hint.. Try L.A. Marzulli, Steve Quayle, Brien Foerster... just for a start.

Here's another suggestion, for all who are delving into this new frontier.....remember to open your mind to truth, question all the things you have been taught since kindergarten and note where these "truth's" came from... Use your logic, use your intelligence, watch as the puzzles of the history we were taught fall apart and the new facts fit together with the evidence that is being unveiled.

For Christians and those that are searching for the truth Christ taught..... note how all of this meshes so well with the Word of God.

Seems weird that they say they want to make contact when they know that contact can bring down on Earth an enemy that mankind could not deal with. Seems pretty stupid.

The Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) stopped sending signals decades ago, due to this worry. However, we are still searching for signals from them, to us.

It's highly likely that there is life in the galaxy outside of us; the question is how easy it is to find. (Especially with current technology; for all we know we're missing something crucial to interstellar communication, as valuable to us as electricity would have been to ancient Greece.).

Thinking of what we could learn from an independently developed, unrelated species is fascinating to me. Even if we only find "dumb" life, it would be awesome! Think of all of the differences in evolution and environments and stuff.

From the top of my head I can´t think of a single reason why extraterrestials might want to attack us.

Here are some options:

1. Pre-emptive strike, based on paranoia.
2. Pre-emptive strike based on prior experience (on the wrong end of the stick).
3. Fun.
4. Their Gods told them to do it.
5. Making way for a hyperspace highway (sub-contracted to the Vogon constructor fleet)
6. Seriously, I mean seriously, upset at the cancellation of Firefly.
