[Destructor]

Isn't it obvious? The aliens observed our civilation, and determined that as a species, humankind are basically a bunch of a******s! So, they decided to stay as far away from earth as possible,until we eventually destroy ourselves!!This brings to mind a good question: How do we know that we really know that we want to have contact with alien life forms? What if they turn out to be more savage than we humans!?!

How do we know that we really know that we want to have contact with alien life forms? What if they turn out to be more savage than we humans!?!

There is no question than some beings are more savage than others.

But the likelihood that the more savage group will expand into the universe ahead of the lesser savage is nil.

Let me put it this way.

Who do you think would get to the moon first?
The Muslim Arabs?
The Judeo-Christian West?
