So what happens when ET shows up...

Ask yourself a question - what will change?

Seriously are you not fed up to the back teeth with disclosure talk, is it CGI, I married an alien. Its all a load of well animal excrement, if the gray, yellows, pinks, the borg turn up tomorrow what difference will it make to your life. Will it pay your bills, fix the world oil problem, cure cancer and end war?

I have a bigger conspiracy problem can we find honest politicians who will actually do what they say when elected! I think we will see ET before that happens.

Anyway just to shoot me down in flames answer the question what will change to you and your life or the world in general you decide, if good old edgar mitchhell is a bit weird then what chance have ATS members got.

My thoughts are that the only ones to benefit will be the higher echelons of humanity and top scientists and us mere mortals will carry on trying to pay the bills.

What happens when they show up ?

Nothing major, really....

We will give them Social Security numbers and few months worth of food stamps.

After that they are on their own, if they want a car, they gonna have to find job

Great answer, let us add something though - only if they enter legally else their ass is out of here, no illegal aliens!!!

Well first off they're not getting any of my booze!

Second, they'll have to get a green card, and I'm not giving up my job to some "Johnny come spacely!"

Third, they will just have to wait in line like the rest of us I dont care if they traveled 80 billion light years they are not cutting in line at the supermarkets!

and Fiannaly No free hand outs! let them get a job!
I hear McDonalds has a pretty liberal hiring procces

As a matter of fact they should just leave!

Slayer my side hurts stop it. I can't help thinking that out there in the vastness....there is a firm of interstellar travel agents trying to sell earth as a new vacation hotspot. Oh the disapointment of Mr & Mrs Alien and their 2.4 children.

I actually disagree. If E.T.'s came down tomorrow it would change EVERYONES way of life. Do you know the knowledge we could get? Or the technology that very well could cure cancer. (If they're advanced enough to find us and than actually build craft to reach Earth I would say they are prob a little more advanced in medicine than us ) Many peoples views on religion, life, and how far we have to go as a race. All of this is assuming they're benevolent....because if there not I think Bills will be the last of your worries

Seriuosly what has Earth become the intergalatic dumping ground for space rifraf let them go to Uranus

If they show up tomorrow, i can see a complete realignment of our world's infrastructure. From education, health care, the foods we eat, transportation, how and where we live.

Could you still see us using oil, and flying on airplanes...I can't. This wouldn't happen right after they show up, but things would drastically change...they would have to.

Oh great there goes the neighborhood,

Realestate prices would skyrocket! Just imagine what it would do to the grade point average my 19 year old daughter would be sitting in class at university with an alien 9 year old, ALL the good jobs would be given to some guy named Bwoop and he does not even like basketball no thanks
I say good riddins to bad space rubbish!

lol well it's pretty apparent you don't really take E.T.'s seriously....but what makes you think they would even want to move to Earth in the first place?

On a serious note would you give a child a gun - answer yes if you where nuts.

If ET was to land his gray little touche would be in custody and on the dissecting table quicker than you could say reverse egineer. All our world governments are in competition with each other and unless something in our mental makeup changes.... after all we are driven by need, desire, lust, anger, all the cool feelings and emotions.

We would see them as a threat and react accordingly, WE have not grown up yet - we are still spotty teenagers with hormones flying all over the place.

C'mon all that new age mince is just a load of.....

The age of aquarius The age of im alright to hell with you more like.

Or is this too cynical for some? Share the wealth

THEY'RE AFTER MY BOOZE AND JOB!!!!!

well ok
If they showed up tomorrow mankind would change forever religion, and other forms of society would change forever our understanding of our own origin everything would change drasticaly

You would have gangs of teenage alien punks running around making crop circle graphitii, They would try to anal probe you every chance they get.
And whats with all the alien anal probing anyway?

I say they would become social outcasts

Are you living in the same world I am? I think maybe you should seek to snatch the pebble from my hand when you wake up and smell the reality.....


We do not need ET to advance our tech we have the tech - the oil giants and other mega corporations do not want you to have it, why because it cut cuts down profit margins you cant sell electricity if you can get it free.

Iraq is really about freedom for iraqis, yes and snow white married one of the dwarfs after a bitter divorce with the handsome prince. If ET was to land nothing would change it would take time and who arranges the time schedule for that.............

if anything they will do us a favor by taking all the crazy people to other planets. Oh and to slayer just imagine what if the et's have better beer then we do. I just read a post stating that ufo's look like there being driven by drunks.

reply to post by Munro_DreadGod


Yeah thats the ticket let them move to Iraq!


Actually it is not a very good idea all joking aside everytime in our own human history that a more advanced culture comes into contact with a lower culture the lower one either suffers horribly or disapears we in this case would be the lower culture look to our own history for the examples.


Sure I could be all foofoo about this but seriously it would be disasterous for humankind. we would loose everything we have achieved and trade it for the idea of a quick and easy fix. We would think about better medecine, education, no more wars etc

Paradise does not exist

Sir you have sold out your seriousness has brought shame to this thread and I demand that you continue drinking until you are in a more stable frame of mind or at least seek medical attention.

Anyway its all good we as earth humans could open casinos in our new asteroid land granted to us by the new owners of planet earth. Vote for Bush, one more term, one more term.

See that's my point!

Ok lets look at the evidence we have so far about how these guys are.

1. They drink and fly!

2. Probing! Still have not figured that one out yet!

3. They are a bunch of Voyers! Hanging out in peoples bedrooms while they sleep now that's creepy

4. They have some kind of agenda.

5. They say they come in peace it sounds more like that twilight zone episode
" How to serve man "

6. They are too stupid to know how to talk with their mouths they have to use that Vulcan mindmeld communication junk!

7. They obviously dont work out look at how wimpy they are.

8. They dont tan very well they are all grey and sickly looking.

9. cattle mutilations!

10. Abducting people if they take em into space that's crossing state lines you can call the FBI on that one.

And whats with the big heads?

Yeah I want this guy as my neighbor!
