So, I was thinking, what if aliens just come to earth for no particular reason at all. What if some aliens visit earth just to visit it.

Yes, alien abduct people. I do think they're probably are studying the planet and its inhabitants. And maybe even working with the government. But what if some species of alien just come to earth just for a visit.

Think about it. Us human, when we go on a vacation, a lot of us may travel to another city, another state, or even another country. We may go there because we like the city/state/country or we never been there before and its a place we want to visit. Aliens could be doing the same when they come to earth, there just visiting.

Why wouldn't aliens do the same. Hey, they got spacecraft that are able to travel large distances so why not travel to a different planet just for a "vacation". It doesn't always have to be because they want to abduct someone. Maybe there coming here just to "chill out" and check out planet earth.

Hey, I bet if we had the technology to travel to other planets people would be saying, "Hey, instead of going to (some place on earth), lets go to planet Yarmyth (made that name up) for a trip."

Well, in this context everything is possible! We go to the zoo, enjoying all the different exotic animals and their different behavior. Some rough places arrange hunting trips were you can kill some exotic animal for your enjoyment and then eat it. Why wouldn´t some less friendly alien species do the same here?! Or just plain out chill, enjoy the beauty of the planet or otherwise learn about primitive ways of dealing with life...like we study ant farms.

Aliens are us, we simply come back in time for vacation. Look at an evolution chart
We will simply shrink in size since we will not have to work in the future and our brains will grow bigger . Our skin will be pale probably because we will spend all of our time indoors staring at some computer screens hence the huge eyes

Any other extraterrestrial entity would be breaking intergalactic law and thus are treated to severe punishment as detailed within the intergalactice law.

Oddly enough, it would explain a lot of things, hehe......
Perhaps it's more like watching a dangerous colony of ants. As long as they don't escape their confines, they're interesting to observe.....

Originally posted by GazrokSorry, but one of the primary points against these ideas of galactic federations, etc.
Originally posted by Gazrok
is that you'd have to accept that such an organization would have to be truly heartless and uncaring to simply not officially acknowledge their existence to other sentient life.
Originally posted by Gazrok
especially when that sentient life is increasingly marching towards even more conflict.

The idea of us being some kind of protected species in a planet zoo is equally laughable.
Originally posted by Gazrok
as it would again mean that these allegedly advanced beings cannot identify sentience (no matter how "primitive") when they see it!

You can think the warm, fuzzy alien idea if you like.
Originally posted by Gazrok but the evidence of covert visitation, interest in defense installations, and abductions, seem to point to a far more malevolent motive, and I doubt that needs a "permit"......

Well Timeseer, I guess you cleared it up for me why E.T.'s just don't come to Earth for a visit.
Okay, I know us humans don't have this technology but if we were to have the type of alien spacecraft they have were we could travel large distances, would we follow the same rules? I'd assume we would. I guess you couldn't just waltz into some aliens planet and say, "Hey, guess who's here?"

You want me to answer that question. Are you certain that you will be satisfy with the answer that will give to that question? Fine I'll tell you... they are doing something. What they are doing is preventing us from nuking each other anymore than what we did during World War II.
Why do you think the number of alien encounters increased so greatly after WWII?
Why wouldn't they just show themselves to us right here and now? You expect too much from them.
First of all like with the United Nations, they can't very well do anything without the approval of whatever government facility that pertains to this portion of the Galaxy or of the Galaxy as a whole. So they just can't suddenly break intergalactic law and come here and then get blasted by other aliens for breaking the intergalactic laws. Get what I'm saying? They don't value your lives more than their own, just as you don't value their lives or acknowledge their lives at all.
But some of them do warn people of dangerous events and situations. Events pertaining to the future are most oftenly made by an extraterrestrial. They do come to Earth and save people disquised as our own people. But they can't do a damn thing to approach us all as a whole for various reasons.
The most important is of who is in control at the moment.
The extraterrestrials would have come here around 2001 or 2003, if Bush wasn't elected into office. So certainly they might come around 2008 or 2009 when Bush isn't in office, but they now predict someone new and more dangerous might take hold as presidency and prevent them from reaching their goals. However, there was an intergalactic vote that 2012 will be the year at the very latest that will come and reveal themselves as a whole towards the people of Earth.
You might want to ask me now as to why Bush presents such a problem? Bush's cabinent would indeed prevent them from freely introducing themselves to the people. What do you think would happen?
That is ludicrous and not an actual intelligent idea. An actual idea is something that doesn't go upon the lies of addressing immature, "I want to see the aliens now, wah wah wah..."
But they don't consider us sentient, because we are too barbaric. They consider us sub-sentient lifeforms. And they have been debating over our existence as to what they should do to us for the past hundreds of thousands of years.
That is why there have been different alien sightings, but however all these aliens must follow the intergalactic laws that were established thousands of years ago. In which only certain people (mostly just scientists and bureaucrats) are allow to interact with humans
They are doing something about, but you have to learn your place. Do you really they will ever take you seriously? These are extraterrestrials, not humans. In fact other humans wouldn't even take you seriously. You have to think outside the box in order to understand reality.
Or maybe you just understand just how primitive and sub-sentient we truly are. Perhaps you just aren't ready for an extraterrestrial encounter. Maybe when they do come here, they'll just take you and leave in you in an actual extraterrestrial zoological center.
Is is upsetting you that I am the one that is telling you this? Maybe we should switch places that way your egocentric attitude can stop enacting a violent temper tantrum.
I am sorry but covert visitation, interest in defense installations, and abduction do not point to a malevolent motive. Maybe you just aren't as smart as you think you are.

Well there are laws and responsibility that higher intelligent beings must follow. They didn't follow these laws they would probably be in constant wars and the Earth would be destroyed in one of them.
