Professor Matthew Bailes said 'the history of weak civilisations contacting more advanced civilisations is not a happy one'
"... he warned that making contact with aliens capable of transmitting powerful signals to Earth over tens of thousands of light years could lead humanity into disaster, because they're likely to be so much more advanced."

Pastor would you read my post 35 on this thread, and give me your opinion.
Thank you.
I pity you.
You literally have no way of coping with anything that shows up.
I can’t help wonder what you would have made of the Native Americans had you been born in 1480?
Think twice before replying???
Sorry, our Facebook, Twitter, etc. trained progeny will be our doom.
Maybe this highly advanced civilization would have an affirmative action program for backward planets like Earth, with set-asides and stuff like that.
Or maybe they would breed us like cattle and eat us. In either event, I’d like to be the first to .....
True.....another possibility is that they know we are here...but we are persona non grata....or off limits...
This could be because we are like you say a zoo or preserve....but another possibility is that we have done something in our ancient past that is so hienous that it has put us on a galactic shitlist...
Ancient? RECENT!
We keep doing it too!
the Bible doesn’t mention antibiotics, electricity, indoor plumbing, jet planes, or automobiles either.
What’s your point?
maybe we can make a deal with them that they will only eat the rich (fatter, more flavor!)
just for fun,
maybe Jesus was speaking of ET’s....?
Christ said, “And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one shepherd “ (John 10:16).
Great minds and all.
Careful....sick minds also think alike....LOL
I had an epiphany a few years back....a simple "what if"
(excuse my amatuer pascal's wager)
What if it's all true?
I mean what we hear about other people's experiences with everything from ghosts to UFO's, demons and angels, to Bigfoot ......
What if they arent lying or pulling hoaxes or delusional?
Can they all be?
what if they are seeing things we simply dont scientifiacally understand yet?
If it's true...a real experiance....what could possibly explain such a thing...
What is the answer based on science?
Could it be that people are experiencing interactions with demensional portholes of some kind?
Could it they are seeing things that dont normally exist on our material plane of 3 dimensions?
Could it even be that sometimes beings from other dimensions can make themselves seen and interact with us?
Things we call angels or demons?
Sounds much like a speech made by Michelle Obama.
Either God’s Word is perfect or it is not. If it is not, we cannot trust ANYTHING in it. Since the Bible calls itself the Word of God and God is therein described as being omniscient, IF there is an error, mistake or contradiction, then it is NOT perfect and the whole thing can be tossed, PERIOD! Unfortunately, for those who choose to cherry-pick their Scriptures, archaeology is further proving the truth of the Scriptures daily.
In Gen 1, God created the Earth on day 1, the Sun, the moon and the stars on day 4. The Earth is unique and is the centre of God’s focus because it was made for us! We are the only creature CREATED IN God’s image.
The fate of the universe rests on Christ’s return to Earth to complete the final act of our redemption (2 Peter 3:9-10). He’ll destroy this current universe and create a new heavens and a new Earth (2 Peter 3:7,10; Revelation 21:1).
AFA your pity? I would save it for yourself. Not believing in a Biblical Jesus means that your eternity is one that excludes any hope, love, charity or light; an eternity of nothing but pain, despair and perhaps self pity, separated from God.
For your sake, please read the Bible and ask Jesus to reveal Himself to you before it is too late!
jeez...spell check!!!
LOL
LOL!
All of the days in Genesis end thus: ‘And the morning and the evening were the nth day’.
All save one.
Why is that?
“Where are they?” —Enrico Fermi
So if there is other life of any kind in the universe....he also created it.
Doesnt matter if it is a single cell amoeba. The question is how will you deal with it?
Will you reject your faith if other life is found?
