Could intervention by ET races on Earth occur for similar reasons given to justify US intervention in Iraq? If so, I've always maintained that there isn't anything wrong with a space goblin that can't be fixed by a 12 guage shotgun.

If these aliens are peace-loving pacifists, as he assumes, then they have no military capability. They would get their sorry green asses kicked back to Zeta Reticuli if they tried anything threatening to America.

The space aliens admire us for our brains.
They use them to grease their machinery.

Thanks. I used this as an opening to mend fences with my brother who opposed the war.
I emailed him the link and commented, "now here's a point of view on the Iraqi War neither of us thought of" ...
He's still wrong but he's also still my brother.

Interesting... Theoretically do you believe Intelligent aliens would build weapons to defend themselves against other possible invaders... Hmmmmmm....

Damn!
I HATE IT when They Do That!!
I had AT LEAST HOPED they would use us to control their more basic machinery.
It's REALLY DEMEANING when the "ET'S" just use our Brains for Grease!
Oh, Well, "Brain Grease" requires LOTS of Brains--so we can expect the ET'S to allow us to Breed Prolifically!
& So Humanity Continues to Survive!!

Maybe their defensive capability relies on flying away really fast. The way these new-age types cast their messianic delusions to all things alien, it would seem that any destructive technology would not be implemented in any usable form on their craft. If I were a rational alien, :) I would harness the same incredible energies that make interstellar travel possible and create planet destroying weapons that could easily rip this solar system apart.There's bound to be other species out there as technically competent, so you have to be prepared. These "messianic aliens" would have to have a dark destructive side to survive long enough to achieve interstellar travel. Why they would be interested in us, to protect planet Earth's environment, bring peace to mankind, etc. It makes no sense, they would conquer us in swift fashion if they wanted and turn our planet into a strip mine. Protecting a planet makes no sense when you have a billion planets within your influence.

Your superior intellects are no match for our puny weapons.

Interesting, but then why haven't we been invaded yet, because if you had the weapons (And you have to believe SOMEONE has them out in the infinite of the universe) these aliens could have blown us away any time they wanted....

The most obvious answer is because they aren't there. Another possibility, if there is an intelligent star-fairing alien race out there, it must be very far away. Maybe over 50,000 light years. This galaxy is just too darn big to even bother with us. There are billions of other systems to explore in our galaxy. They could probably find enough to keep them busy within a couple of hundred light years from their home planet. Another possibility is that they could have come and gone 100's of millions of years ago. They could've had a galaxy spanning empire and all evidence of it would have eroded to dust by now if they moved on or went extinct 100 million years ago.
They could've been Alpha Centaurians, only 4.5 light years away, but Alpha Centauri A is a star very similar to our sun yet it is probably about a billion years older. It's possible they have long since passed on or maybe we're the remnant of one of there colonies. I need a starship so I can go get answers to all of these questions. :)

These "messianic aliens" would have to have a dark destructive side to survive long enough to achieve interstellar travel. Sort of like the miniseries "V".
Of course, if they looked like Jane Badler or June Chadwick, all bets are off :-)
