Is it possible that--?

[Thailand]

In the scheme of things we are simply the playthings of superior alien beings, a form of entertainment as it were, not a new theory of course.

But on that basis would you,as a superior alien being, allow what is happening on the earth today.

A country murdering the citizens of another country and allowed by the inaction of all the other countries in the game. Bear in mind the endgame maybe annihilation of the world in general?

 

Would you the superior being simply terminate the game and move on to another galaxy to see if they are another species worth saving?

Or,as the superior being, what would you do?

 

This thought came to me whilst eating pork dumplings and drinking cheap white wine.

 

[CharlieH]

First off, lay of the dumplings and wine ! Clearly doesnt end well. ????

 

Perhaps as the superior being, what is happening is an experiment, to see how the participants deal with it.Will they overcome or will they destroy each other.If its the latter then  experiment over and reboot. If they succeed and find a solution, on to the next task. ????

I'd definitely pull the bung in the fish tank.

[Thailand]

Charlie, so you are an alien moderator would you intervene and remove the protaganists or ---?

Very tempting methinks.

Use the big alien boot and squash em!

[1FinickyOne]

Why would aliens care... if you see a war between ant colonies, red ant vs black ant... are you going to try and do something about it?

 

you might just watch in amusement... 

 

it is only the ego of our species that might lead us to think aliens care in the least about our wars and politics.. they might take us onto their spaceship and study us like we might do with an ant colony...

I can't imagine there is much entertainment value in watching.

 

I have to admit I watched Brexit, or to be precise the part which happened until now, with amusement. Will they really do that? How bad will it get? Will anybody learn? I still watch from time to time, but it gets boring after a while.

[Lacessit]

As a superior alien being, I would start posting warnings on ASEAN that the human race had better shape up or ship out.

So back in the day, a few of aliens were having a bet about which proto-lifeform was best at making planets habitable.  They put something suitable on Venus, Mars and Earth.  “See ? Yours have both died out, but mine are still living on Earth, which is habitable”

” Aye, maybe, but they’re not finished yet”

Died out, gone underground or just hard for us to detect?

 

Our understanding of life as we know it is carbon based, using liquid water as a solvent.  What's to prevent silicon based life, using liquid methane instead of water?  Perhaps living on a time scale that just looks like it's standing still to our puny eyes.  Or living underground?

Back in the day, the aliens said “Let’s try a planet where we don’t interfere with evolution.  Maybe the Neanderthals and Homo Erectus will coexist.  Maybe the cars won’t wipe out the humans, nor will the phones…”

”ye’re a Raj, man, but even if the cars don’t kill them off, even if the phones don’t kill them off, they’ll find some other way of killing themselves off”

”Dinnae be daft; people have mair sense than that; give them time, they’ll learn to take care of their planet”

“So you’re saying we’re double or quits, after the dinosaurs?”

[StreetCowboy]

I’m not saying that’s the way it is, but if it was, how would it look different ?

[swissie]

About time, we forget about this "Alien-Business". The only alien we will ever see is a neighbor that acts strange and therefore comes across as "alien".

- The vastness of the universere does not allow for interstellar travel. In our space-neighborhood there is certainly no other intelligent life to be found. Mabe in the middle of the milky way, some 20'000 light years away?

= 1 light year is 9,46 Trillon km. = The speed of light is close to 300'000 km per second. (Happy travelling, don't forget to pack a light lunch).

-Radio contact? The message taking 20'000 years to be heard by "someone"? Then waiting another 20'000 years for an answer? That will not make for a lively conversation, won't it.

We are alone and will remain so. Our earth is the only home we will ever have. Our fellow humans are the only "intelligent-life" we will ever encounter.

However, the fact that "intelligent-life" on this earth is in the process of destroying the only home it will ever have, asks for a re-definiton of the term "intelligent-life".

Apparently the planet is too large for mankind to affect it and God won't let it happen anyway.

My buddy used to cheat at dominoes, and eventually came to a sad end from it.

When he came to the pearly gates, he found them unattended, and wandered straight in.

St Peter was not impressed - "Don't you ever knock?"

Ozimoron, unfortunately I can't quite agree with you (no offence).

Obviously, God (the Gods, last count about 30'000) have been extremely inactive over time. After having created "the world", they must have retired to the sidelines. Like someone  watching a football game form a comfortable distance, with no intention to interfere.

- Giving much cause for the amusement of heavenly spectators, under the motto " we gave them everything needed to make the best of it". Instead they keep on banging their heads in. An endless source of amusement for the passive God-Spectators, especially as "heaven" appears to be rather a "dull" place, compared to the yeast-pot called earth.

God(s) are amused spectators. Not interfering while 6 Million Jews were gassed and not interfering when a meteorite wiped out the dinosaurs. Not reacting to millions of daily prayers by humans, seeking guidance and relief from unbearable life circumstances. Eternal silence with no feedback as the only reward.  

 
I myself have stepped back from the "smorgasboard" of Gods, unable to find a God to my liking. I therefore will stick with Charles Darwin.
PS: I have been in paradise already. Pattaya "in the old days". Cheers.

If the dinosaurs was not wiped out, most likely no humans would had evolved. 

 

One day we might create life on a planet, and become creators. Might have happened on planet earth, but that civilation most likely have gone extinct, since it his a huge chance any intelligent civilation is  self destructive as we are.

Why would these "superior alien beings"--if they exist--intervene now?  Human beings have been killing each other forever.  Perhaps it's a part of their plan...population control I mean.  That and disease, famine, natural disasters, etc.

Read an article from NASA that suggested dinosaurs (bambi raptors) might have landed on the moon up to 10/20 million years ago had they not been wiped out......they had or appeared to be evolving opposable fingers/thumbs!!!

[starky]

If ya going to run a simulation, you have to explore all outcomes. No room for emotion in science.  I remember cutting up rabbits and frogs in biology in school, we butcher millions of animals daily anyone give a rats you think? Look at all the experimentation we do on other species so we can have medicines, or even rubbish <deleted> like skin products or make up for women.

 It's all perspective and anything is possible. So potentially be concerned about your dumplings but not so much about your wine. Perhaps? Maybe I'm not in tune enough to understand the intelligence and feelings of a grape...

  Right I'm off to have some peyote

I’m sure they are monitoring this forum...  of course, the Prime Directive prevents them from revealing there hand....   I do have my suspicions though.

Well, by now, they would have gone self destinct by 10's of millions years ago. Only 53 years ago we landed on moon, and have the possibility to self destroy our selfs 50 times only with nuclear weapons. And we are not exactly helping the environment either to preserve us.

 

One theory why we have not seen aliens or any creators is because the intelligence, the will, adventurous, conqour and creativity spirit needed to be able to travel long distances in space, also comes with an horrible bi effect of being self destructive.

[zzaa09]

They designed, implanted, invented and strategically arranged most everything that we know and exist for.

 

Almost a game for them.
