While viewing a presentation by Professor Bruce Bueno de Mesquita (New York University and member of National Academies of Science) regarding his new book, "The Predictioneer's game" on CSPAN-2 November 22, 2009. I quote the following from the author: "Recently I was asked to analyze what would be the right venue and timing for announcing that the earth is being regularly visited by extra-terrestrial beings." "This came from a person who is a very distinguished scientist [who] runs a distinguished research institute in the hard sciences." Bueno de Mesquita would not divulge the name of the prominent scientist, but this comment adds veracity to the claims that the US government is investigating the same issue. The context behind the statement was that Professor Bueno de Mesquita was responding with examples to a question from an audience member regarding sinister and bizarre requests. So he cited the ET request as one example. While he viewed the inquiry with skepticism, he was clearly taken aback by the highly respected source of the question (i.e. a most prominent scientist associated with an equally impressive research institute).
The Pontifical Academy of Sciences held a "study week" to explore the question of the existence of extraterrestials. Credit: The Vatican The conference was meant to focus on the scientific perspective on the subject of the existence of extraterrestrial life, and pulled in perspectives from atheist scientists and Catholic leaders alike. It was split into eight different segments, starting with a topics about life here on Earth such as the origins of life, the Earth’s habitability through time, and the environment and genomes. Then the detection of life elsewhere, search strategies for extrasolar planets, the formation and properties of extrasolar planets was discussed, culminating in the last segment, intelligence elsewhere and ’shadow life’ – life with a biochemistry completely different than that found on Earth. Speakers at the event included notable physicist Paul Davies and Jill C. Tarter, the Director of the Center for SETI Research. Numerous astrobiologists and astronomers researching extrasolar planets also were in attendance to give lectures. The whole series of speech abstracts and a list of participants is available in a brochure on the Vatican site, here.
“Just like there is an abundance of creatures on earth, there could also be other beings, even intelligent ones, that were created by God. That doesn’t contradict our faith, because we cannot put boundaries to God’s creative freedom. As saint Francis would say, when we consider the earthly creatures to be our “brothers and sisters”, why couldn’t we also talk about a “extraterrestrial brother”? He would still be part of creation.” Even with the discovery of over 400 exoplanets, the question of extraterrestrial life still remains to be answered in our own Solar System. It is a pertinent question for the religious and non-religious alike.

Well Buddie contrary to popular belief, the "Elites" dont have a strangle hold on everything on this planet. Perhaps your coin purse, but not mine.
