Yes I would love for them to contact us. For the simple fact it would change the World forever and for the better, unless they were evil galatic overlords.
For one thing it would prove all religion is wrong which I truely believe has held back mankind to this day.[
Religion? - Early beginnings of intelligence - But it, like science, and most everything else, Man abuses it
and his own consciousness - Aliens fear contact with such a species.
The real problem alien fans, that no one wants to recognize........
A highly evolved intelligence that these aliens possess, would scare a good part of the Human race
- Like the magicians and witches of the past - some would start blaming all that goes wrong in the
World on them - as soon as they make overt contact with species Man
- And truth is, could you really trust them? - As a Human you assume hidden motives.
Majel Rodenberry, wife of Gene Rodenberry {Star Trek} produced an excellent sci-fi series some years ago
called "Earth: Final Conflict" depicting what might happen if an advanced ET race made contact.
- Yes they would offer all kinds of tech that would help Humans - But, some would not trust them
and, like in that series, they might not be as good natured as they first led us to believe.
Brainiacs, like physicist Stephen Hawking, have also warned us
- Becareful for what you wish for - You may get it.
