UN to appoint Earth contact for aliens (Yes, you read that correctly and no, it's not a spoof)
News.Com (Australia) ^ | September 25, 2010

THE United Nations was set today to appoint an obscure Malaysian astrophysicist to act as Earth�s first contact for any aliens that may come visiting.

Mazlan Othman, the head of the UN's little-known Office for Outer Space Affairs (Unoosa), is to describe her potential new role next week at a scientific conference at the Royal Society’s Kavli conference centre in Buckinghamshire.

She is scheduled to tell delegates that the recent discovery of hundreds of planets around other stars has made the detection of extraterrestrial life more likely than ever before - and that means the UN must be ready to coordinate humanity’s response to any “first contact”.

During a talk Othman gave recently to fellow scientists, she said: “The continued search for extraterrestrial communication, by several entities, sustains the hope that some day humankind will receive signals from extraterrestrials.
"When we do, we should have in place a coordinated response that takes into account all the sensitivities related to the subject. The UN is a ready-made mechanism for such coordination.”

LOL.

Thanks for remembering your sarc tag.

KV is napping but that will be a good post for him to chuckle with.

Bit his tongue (literally) via his severe tongue thrust episodes so he will be happy to get his mind off of his unintended self almost tongue piercing.

Hey ya know what if your perception/belief of ET’s transpires it may be a huge gift to the Catholic threads.

You might be to darn busy saving humanity from the invaders!

If they the UFO invaders land on my property I am going to call the Quixuhlater so I can carry on with my day and not be bothered.

So, they have appointed someone to greet the aliens, just like Walmart. What language will they speak?

Because the aliens will be of no enduring interest to UN Socialists unless they can be taxed and controlled, I would imagine that they would forcibly teach the aliens French....a language symbolic of a society that has lost interest in freedom  and has embraced an all-encompassing Government.   Or perhaps Greek, but they would probably have an easier time teaching the aliens French..

Do you realize it is the Catholic thread I was whining about being high jacked?

There are some very legitimate non Catholics who have questions about the faith/teachings and then there is the others and I have to be honest in that I see fellow Catholics who seem to enjoy the bantering.

Like all subject matter here at FR there are those silly 500 plus threads where everyone is like cats chasing their tails.

I have seen it on Apple vs. the other computer threads.
Thankfully I don't own a computer so no bone in that dog fight.

And they ARE in contact with entities, but they are demonic in origin, although not many people, even the military involved so far, understand the specifics. These beings have always been here—and in that sense Erich von Daniken was correct. He was wrong in calling them “gods.” They merely want to be treated as such.

You been following this, bro?

That way we at least will be putting our best foot forward, appearance-wise.

Shouldn't this be part of the job of Miss Universe? 

I agree that it 'should' be, but after this most recent business of a muslim being made Miss USA, I felt that the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders would be a better choice because they will ALWAYS be on-message and they won't encourage the aliens to attack the infidels.  Those pageants don't seem to have high enough standards, it seems.  In fairness, I was pleased that the current Miss USA did in fact come out against the proposed Ground Zero Mosque, but that was merely good luck on our part that we can't count on for all time.  The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders will never cause us a worry in that regard....they won't ever let down the Lone Star State and they won't let America down either.

I don't doubt the one world Dictatorship theory at all.

What I don't ponder or get hyper anxious about is it happening soon or even in a Freeper lifetime.

Humans have not been brainwashed and dumb downed enough to except a world without God.

Even if it did transpire in our life time I honestly (knowing most of the people in our neck of the woods) don't think it would change our daily lives.

Most of us are aged faithful Christians and watch out for each other in just normal life upsets/illnesses ect..

As many have told me when they travel away and come home “life here is quite uneventful/peace filled”

That in itself can really change how one perceives threats to God givin unalienable rights.

And the drama of UFO invasions or pseudo UFO invasions for the sake of world domination by one small group of men.

Who is going to tell the aliens that they now have to learn to say, “Take me to your bureaucrat,” when they land?

Her main duties are to look out the window. 

I hope that you'll end up being correct, but I am sadly resigned to her performing as any other Socialist bureaucrat and continually looking for ways to justify more funding and a neverending expansion of her little fiefdom.

If the aliens are shown to be taxable in ANY way, then the bureaucrats will beat a path to their spacecraft's entry hatch and will magically find a way to communicate with their new cashflow stream...I don't believe that communication will be any sort of insurmountable concern as long as Socialists see something that they can control and bleed dry through confiscatory taxation.

I had been under the impression that Henry Waxman had already been given that position.....I recall hearing something along the lines of his nostrils being hiding places for secret telecom transceivers for UN transmissions.

This PROVES men do look at the body of a woman *first*.

This is an ancient self-preservation skill.  Men have learned to evaluate threat hazards, and this is a behavior designed to ensure that the woman doesn't carry weapons.

You are, of course, entirely correct. I can’t believe I didn’t see that! What’s IN this martini anyway?

Thanks for the honor of your questions.

1. What are ET’s?

The best scholarly research I've read on the topic is from

Every Nation pushing for a World order is filled with leaders who have a corrupt heart. They have promised what they can never deliver and won’t....Every man who gains leadership in the UN wants control...and we know Power corrupts. The UN is all about ‘consolidation of Power’ just as the nations leaders desire.
When anyone watches the happenings of the UN you see this clearly....all the “helps” they offer are cards they play in their deck to manipulate power...it has nothing to do with the welfare of any countries peoples. Nothing whatsoever.

The ‘drama’ that is piped into our media will simply continue to be the Un’s horrid track record and the bureaucracy run amuck, full of fraud and pointless debates and appointments of power.


ABSOLUTELY INDEED.
