If our YouTube comments were the first thing that aliens received from us, I have a feeling that they would either speed away in the opposite direction or want to examine humanity as a curious pathological case.

I really was trying not to post this thread, but upon seeing the psychopath comment, I couldn't contain myself. Apropos, can a psychopath know he's a psychopath?

From various anecdotal reports, they seem more interested in our nuclear weapons facilities.

Is this your homage to idiotic Youtube comments?
Not at all, I consider some of these reports plausible. They were, after all, given by various army officials, who I doubt were simply taking the piss.

Doesn't pass the smell test. We are nowhere near serious interstellar travel and any civilization that were would already have cracked nuclear fission and fusion hundreds or even thousands of years ago, imo.

I don't believe in aliens like the ones depicted in movies. According to my creed, they may be "spiritual" beings aiding us - like possibly shutting down nuclear weapons facilities, as some of the reports have shown. Regarding advanced civilizations on another planets, in other galaxies, etc. - not sure about that, although, who knows?
Olaf Stapleton's Last and First Men was a great book, btw, but I don't really entertain the existence of such realities.

Will the incantation open up your third eye, allowing you to see through the flimsy pretext we call reality and communicate directly with our benevolent spiritual visitors?
