Maybe the aliens must be idiots! Think about it: would you be willing to

buy

into the story that an intellectually superior race that could travel
interstellar distances, would go through all the trouble to come to our

planet

just to put on a second-rate airshow for our viewing pleasure?

Well, I never seen a extraterestrial airshow, but from what I've
heard, they're anything but "second rate".

Let's hear what you've heard then. Just don't confuse performance with

putting

on a show, since a show is a pattern they fly and the vast majority of UFO
storytales I've heard all do silly random or elementary patterns, which is

not

very impressive by any sense of the word.

Besides, if there really are aliens visiting us out there, why won't

they visit me?

Maybe that's what some monkey in Africa, or dolphin in the ocean is
thinking right now about you?

So you've talked to the ETs and they told you that is why they won't visit

with

me or are you making up stories again? There is no *legitimate* reason for

ETs

not to visit me and you can't give us one. Don't use one make believe

story to

try and support another make believe story.

I'm willing and available and unlike many of the people they've been
abducting so far, I'm not a complete idiot because I can actually think

for

myself. I'm not afraid to relate with alien sentient beings, no matter

what

they look like. Not only that, I'm smart enough to take the time to stop

and

ask for some evidence of my abduction. Say like asking for samples of

their

native food (something that won't spoil right away) or some harmless
technical artifact.

Your monkey wants a breadstick to show the other monkey's.

I don't have a monkey. You are being delusional.

Wait, that's "assuming" (see below) you understand and have the
capacity to speak "monkey language".

The language issue is irrelevant since almost all ETs suppusedly know

telepathy.

Perhaps the alien astronuats aren't versed/experts in zoology just
yet?

Perhaps you still have no argument so you make things up.

The problem with the Fermi Paradox is that it is based on false

assumptions.

They act as though a far more intelligent race would act just as stupid

as we

do...

   "I would like to share a revelation that I've had, during my time

here. It

   came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that

you're

   not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet, instinctively

develops an

   equilibrium with it's surrounding environment, but you humans do

not. You

   move to an area and you multiply and multiply, until every natural

resource

   is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another

area. There

   is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do

you know

   what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this

planet; you

   are a plague and we are the cure" (Agent Smith, THE MATRIX, Warner

Brothers,

   1999)

One plauge killing another?

No, one virus destroying it's own environment so that eventually it will

have no

place to live.

May the best plauge win,

Your attitude is the exact reason humans shouldn't be allowed to colonize

the

solar system, much less the galaxy.

or at least co-habitate.

Viruses don't co-habitate.

Obviously, a species intelligent enough to traverse light years of space

would

be a species that learned to not destroy itself and it's environment; a

species

that would not want to spread to another part of the galaxy like a

plague --

those are things WE humans would do if we could travel through space,

but that

doesn't imply everyone else in the universe thinks like we do.

  >I think a humanity spreading throughout the galaxy would be at least

a small

  >measure more of a good thing than a bad thing.

I disagree since I wouldn't want tourists ruining the solar system with

their

graffiti or trash or having to put up with a 7-11 on every corner of the

galaxy.

I want the solar system to be pure and untouched and pristine, the same

as the

day when I first saw it.

And just how much trash had to be created in order for you to be able
see the pristine solar system?

How does my being able to see the solar system justify making trash? Your

logic

sucks...as well as being unethical.

I wouldn't worry about it too much, as the universe is so big and
expanding at a rate infinitely beyond our rate of 7-11 production.

I would worry more about your ignorance of science since an expanding

universe

means a *thinning* universe -- which means everything is getting further

apart

and fewer in number.

But we'll create some more garbage so you can keep an eye on it anyway.

You wish. Maybe that's why your post was such garbage.
