The only problem I have after reading so many posts, and the comments added is how everything seems to think aliens are going to come to Earth to "save" us. Save us from what? Ourselves?

Let's think this through. Why would an alien race come to Earth to interfere with the natural flow of life on that planet, unless it is to push their belief system onto us? Because if they NEED to SAVE us from ourselves, then they deem we need saving. Thus pushing what they think is right or wrong onto us. What if they think that all gay people must be killed in order to save us? What if any child that is disabled in anyway should be killed in order to save us? Doesn't that sound like a mad-man trying to take over the world?

I do not doubt aliens exist in some form in the galaxy and beyond. Maybe study Earth. But to think an alien race happened to come across our planet, and happened to "study" certain governments and happened to decide they are corrupt is a little, well out there. Then, add that these same aliens decided to somehow talk to just a few humans to tell them of their arrival someday? What would be the reasoning behind that choice?

In short, yes I am sure there is alien life. I would expect it on Mars and Titan. Intelligent life, I do not expect to find in this solar system, or even close. If you allow for intelligent alien life to somehow detect intelligent life on Earth, and also allow for them to have the ability to travel here at speeds we can only imagine in science fiction, then you must also grant them the intelligence and reasoning that goes along with those. Curious, yes they might spy on us. Interfere because they "think" they can do a better job at our governments? Then why don't humans interfere with the structure of bees, ants, wolves, lions, and every other life form on Earth? We watch, we film, but we don't interfere because it would, well intefere!

I know some people will lash out at me because I do not agree that aliens, hiding themselves for the greater good (of their definition) will suddenly show up on a certain day...announced by a select few people for some reason...to "save" us. But what makes more sense. That, or a few people who are having fun at, or taking advantage of, people? Shouldn't they at least be able to communicate with us without following the "rules" set up by humans? For example, why would an alien have to create a profile to post to an internet forum? Why would they have to be secretive about anything?

copied my answer from another thread:

I was putting the things together in the same way:

- threath of food-shortage
- threath of 25% of all mammals going extinct
- threath of global warming and all its concequences

changing our way of living would take to much time for all those threaths to diminish, only a quick cut-back on people would have the desired effect. How? Well they tried to start a war (9/11) but that did not unfold as they would have liked (WW3). So what would a possibility be? Something people don’t know, something people are afraid of? Exactly: Aliens; feeding on the frigthfull stories of abductions and superpowers (advanced technology), beings with new (?) religions will take over the world with a all destroying attack.

Under the cover of beautifull name like the “Galactic Federation of Light” arriving with a message of love, they will unleash a vivid rain of fire, whipping the most of us out. Than in the last moment (after losing 75% of earths population) the goverments of the world will defeath the aliens and restore peace and order to the world.

In fact these aliens are the goverments soldiers; created in secret labs under the ground trhu mixing Rosswell Alien DNA with human’s DNA and well trained to obey goverments orders;

ALL FANTASY???? Maybe, who’s to say?

I think the greys are here for totally selfish reasons: ..... to save themselves. Period. They are a race that can not breed by themselves anymore, naturally. Either they manipulated themselves through genetics or evalution has made them that way, so they have to splice our DNA into theirs to revive their species.

And I've read this part in a book because I haven't personally ever seen.... that they eat by putting nutriance on their skin and it absorbs in and then into their bodies. How can a species get so bad genetically that they can not even breed or eat normally. That's just unreal.

And that you have to understand that the greys are expert on the brain functions of us physically how it works and spiritually. I believe they tell us they are here for good intensions to save us because they want us to believe it. But really it's a slight of hand..... to get our confidence and hide their real intensions. I know others who have their opinion on the greys and think they are here out of love, but I really don't believe it. I think they want our planet for their new "part us" / "part them" species to live on.

oh well, I don't want to freak anyone out about all this, sorry but this is my opinion on the greys.
