Why, do they have Facebook and Google on other planets?

If the alien species is using this method to find us they are as useless as we are at interstellar travel and war making across the lightyears.
Nothing to worry about.

Oh, they’re watching us, alright...building barns to house us with specially constructed luxury stanchions equipped with 24/7 agitprop TV broadcasts and lots of McDonald’s to eat.
Oh, wait. That’s how we ALREADY live on THIS planet.
*SMIRK*
It’ll be like shooting fish in a barrel when they finally decide to come for us. ;)

A civilization that is thousands or millions of years advanced beyond ours and located many light years away would probably be inclined to pay as much attention to us as we are to pay attention to an ant hill along the side of a remote Montana Highway.
Those having occasion to pass by would take little or no notice. There may be an entomologist who takes note if there is something unique or rare about our ant hill, but the biggest danger we face would be from the developer who is looking to widen the highway and pave us over without any second thought.

We were revisiting Godzilla and
GAMERA FRIEND OF CHILDREN......videos at home last night. Those moveis were produced by the Japanese back in the 50s and I still find them so much fun.
As a kid I thought they were the bomb.
Very suspicious no Godzilla sightings....very suspicious.....LOL

That would explain why they haven’t visited.

But would they care?

Suppose there ARE other beings out there...
Why is it always assumed that they would be way more advanced as we Are?
To: Vaquero
Nothing to worry about.
Hey Red Badger, I meant to say agree. The distances are just too far even for neighboring (possible having life) planets.
God set it up. We will know the details of the universe more and more once we leave here.
ITs fun to dream.. Dream about His Will.....

And if they’re smart (and they are) they’d stay out of contact with we humans; just come down to look up donkey’s rear ends and the rest of a certain political party.
