The lochness monster thread got me thinking about other species that have been "undiscovered" on this planet, and I've heard speculation on whether aliens are simply just another species of earth, while more advanced, can remain nearly undetected because they are so advanced?
Could they simply live underground undetected? Perhaps they were the first "evolved" species of this planet and then we came along and started wrecking the place, so they "fled to the hills". Perhaps these space ships are simply their way of traveling from where they are hiding?
I'd love to get your thoughts on this and whether you have heard this theory before or similar theories and if not, do you believe it might be possible?
Yes,I have heard all kinds of things of this nature..you might try checking out the Lemurians.
You know,Mt.Shasta and all that.
I would agree with Oceanne, there are many things they have been unsawered spread thru out the 4 corners of the world
My brothers proof of how aliens have evolved as he surely some mutation or by product of one.
That's a new one for me. Interesting thought though. Maybe theyre us from another point in time? ooooooohhhh.
Well this is a question that has come up time and time agin tho your thoery is different from others and quite probalbe there is places on the map that we have not explored like the bramuta triangle which no one has returned alive so it is possible but i gues sence there is no real solid proof of this its hard to say whats real and once not because those who do know hide it from us.
Why must we persive that aliens are other species and not like us. Like Onyxcruiser posted many believe in fact we may be the aliens to this planet. Instead of the pilgrims on the wooden ship the mayflower, what if in fact it was a spaceship they came to this land with, hehe just a twist
lol. Interesting idea... funny too. I needed that giggle. heeheehee. I think that if they were from another planet, we'd have found them by now. But seeing as we're still discovering species on our own planet, why wouldn't they be able to hide from us here? Seems like it would work. Sometimes the thing you're most looking for is right under your own nose.
Isn't that how most of our science-fiction books start out? The Earth is going to be destroyed so thy load people up to populate another planet to keep the species going? lol
Ade, could you explain that a little bit more? Your answers are always a pleasure to read and a lot more interesting than most. What do you mean by "Race memory"?
really the theorys are endless and there are so maney different storys on the matter it just never ends. I remember when i was a kid looking into the sky and seeing a weirdly shaped thing in the sky almost cigar shaped and i never found out what it was. you know there could be maney things like this and maybe its best we didn't know even tho i think we should... anyways unsolved mysteries did a whole thing on alliens ^^.
Oh! You mean like DeJa Vu! I gotcha! lol.... I don't know. It makes more sense than some of the other stuff I've read. lol. CadreWolf does have some good answers too, doesn't he? I'm going to have to talk to him on this too then. :P
well from what more i gathered it could be the dinosaur that lived in water that they talk about in history. if you look closey to its description it closely fits the charactoristics so this is just another possible theory of mine tho its not a very good one lol.
last time i was really baked i contemplated this and came up with 4-D beings who are effected by the 3-D surroundings and beings but dont have to participated in it unless they choose to.
kinda like how we can choose to draw a picture and enjoy art, sorta thing.
So would we ever know these trace memories, for if we take them as our instinct, than when or how will they become known, for many have said at the end all things shall be known. so would we see that we are aliens from another planet and gain the knowledge, for all through the countless ages we have made leaps and bounds when scientest speculate that we should not have advanced so rapidly in things, from engines and steam power and some of the cure of illness. yet are these deep seeded thoughts from a race before given us the knowledge or subconcious thoughts we seem to remember.
If that's the case then why don't more people "remember"? It seems that 95% of the population is just completely retarded.. lol.. maybe we are descendants of some distant race... just a mentally challenged version of them. lol
Ohhh I love Aliens I live by a marine base and i often wonder.
Are they doing reverse engineering ? Are they doing a search in the ski with S.E.T.T.I. ? I beleieve we are not alone and I have often sat out side my house and see moving stars. I do not think they are gray with big eyeballs but rather like it has been mentioned.They look like us and could blend in.
How ever i am a huge big gray alien freak gotta love those big eyes they make you smile.
Sometimes that logic seems plasable, yet we must think like battle star galactica, looking for home with the 13 colonies, yet if we are decendants of a race transplanted in the universe and each given so much knowledge to make life, and watched. I do believe that many things here on mother earth have yet to be seen, last year over 10 new species have things have been found here truly amazing for there is so much to this planet we shall never in my mind.
It's the Alantians. The were here and got tired of us & let. They come back & checkup on us. We are not ready for others yet. Under the deep seas are were there is many unknowns. For science can not take the cold & high pressure W/darkness to see whats there yet. What we have see so far is "weird" & very odd primitive sea creatures .( maybe nessi's cousins)

If this theory is right they could be hiding in teh core of the earth and come out to check out what the outside of the planet is like
Its definitely a possibility
There are so many areas of Earth that are still uncharted and untouched by current humans who knows what is out there.
I for one would love for there to really be aliens from another planet (as vast as the universe is who is to say theres not)
but I also believe there is still so many mysteries here on earth to explore
Personally, I believe of all the things we claim to understand maybe 2% is truth. Everything else is touch and go. Of course we havent discovered every living being on this planet -- we are physically challenged from extending our searches.
But, saying extra-terrestrial means not of this planet at all -- and that is a whole new ball of wax. We know next to nothing.
Yes I have heard of these theories before and I do believe that this is possible.
Cardewolf brought up a point with all of the new species being found on mother earth. We are seeing more from mother earth and I do feel that maybe with all of the mining and such that we are going to see more.
However, I do agree with Ade on this. How are we certain that maybe just maybe we are the ones that is out of place and that we are not the aliens to a point. Could it be possible that we are a race that was once on top of everything?
I believe there are other species on this plant that have yet to be discovered but I dont think aliens are one of them. I believe we are not alone in the universe that other races are out there.
We are currently discovering new species on this world, all the time. Think of this. After all this time, mankind doesn't know everything there is to know about our own planet, then we certainly do not not everything that transpires in the cosmos. We have to be pretty arrogant as a species to think that we are the only intelligent being in the universe. I think life out there exists. Whether we are their decendants, transplants, or failed experiments or originated here ourselves is up for speculation. But we are definately not the only kids on the block. The idea of being transplanted is interesting though. That could explain why certain people have psi powers. Perhaps they are just more in tune from whence we came, than most.
thast sis a good theory but i think they are just trying to get to know us better while we want to know them better sooner or later they will come here and acutally try to communicate with us so we can find out more from each other
In line with Ade's post there was a TV series called 'Battlestar Galatica' it was along the same lines as Ade is going along. A fleet of spaceships fleaing from harm is racing towards earth which is a long lost tribe of their home.
I find this interesting and could possible be a bases of our exsistance.
True, and if you think about it, Star Wars occurs in the past just like Battlestar Gallactica does. But my question would be, if we did come to earth like that, why did we regress into cavemen, both in mental and psyciall structure (ie skelletons)
It's hard to tell. Theres so many quack jobs out there that say they have been abducted by them. Can we believe them? Are they really here with us?
Ahh yes the Planet seeding, a base to many a fine sci-fi book, going out and coming to us, I like the book, the title escapes me, n=but it appears to be about a vcast-away of humaniods that are desperatly trying to leave a "planet". Turns out is is the race that settled eath, died upon arriving, and the decomposition made the "ooze" that we came from.
i think it would be selfish of me to say that we are the only species so there for i am sure there are others species out there.
we just don't see them they are to scared to show them sefs
who can blame them for hiding lol....
"If this theory is right they could be hiding in teh core of the earth and come out to check out what the outside of the planet is like "
And there is an idea that has been going around that proposes just that..the whole Shasta thing?
Also Ade,what you have spoke of has been proposed as well,the ingrained memory thing.DNA,the whole nine yards.
Think I might bring over a few vids I know of that would explain several of these ideas in depth for yaz...gimmie a few to go retrieve them..
This explains about Tilos,the Lemurians and their supposed mission ..
Have not heard this before but yes they could be from here and we just did not know they was here.
A little about the Annunaki.And whats funny? condsider the minerals we believe to be on the Moon..I wonder how long it will be before we are mining it?
They do say that history repeats itself...just food for thought.
Enjoy..
Oops posted before I meant to.But if we were to mine the Moon and build colonies there,eventually there would be progeny,the first generation born on the Moon .Would they be considered ETs? Get my drift?
I don't disbelieve that others might be living in the hills or deep in the oceans, we''re just yet to find them.
I don't think anything lives deep underground. However, I've got a theory (not sure I believe it or not) about the "greys."
If you plot future human evolution our bodies get smaller, eyes and heads larger, mouths smaller, uniform skin colour, less-no hair etc.
What if the "greys" (big head, grey and black eyes) are us but from the future, coming back to check out their uncivilized ancestors?
Just an idea :)
No I dont think that aliens are a part of this plant. I believe that there is heaps that we still have to descover on our plant but the same goes for outa space.
I've read that some have speculated that mars might have been our first home. If you add atomsphere to the planet, the plant is almost identical to earth. My astronomy professor told me the most essential element you need is carbon, and it's quite abundant in the universe.
colinist transplanted here from another world hum, i do think this is truly possible, the thought that we are the only living thing is riduclious. yet to ponder our evelution for was this place already inhabited when we came, dinasours and we came and wiped them out and now we are today. yet organisms unseen maybe in the comets and astriods coming to earth giving us new species yet to be discovered.
there are heaps of species both plant and animals that have yet to be discovered. Or in some cases manufactured. For every species we wipe out another is found. I dont think ET is one of those. The universe is massive and for every species we have here there must be hundreds more out there.
well i tell you my opinion...
I am s harsh person in the forum do spoil the threads this i felt. but i really do respect others knowledge and opinions and i put my opinion or knowledge to the analysis to the thread author.
I do love harmony and wish my reply must not be taken as its paced forcefully. coz my mind revolve very less and due to my thought level is very less compared to the all masters in the forum.
when thought universally, i think every bio organ is as free as to visit eveery where in the universe as the spirits do. but its can be due t light weightness or it developed such a advance state sur to science.
and this way human to have capability of forming colonies away from the planet earth. but how long it go to take place is uncertain.
now come to planetory point mixing with the universal point of view.
the earth is not special to gigantic creation every thing is possible as the cosmic forces work here too...
what is coscmic force... its space enegy ( Gigantic Coil of energies floating in the universe everywhere...) it contian light energies as well as dark energy both.
And teh growt of mind and intellact decides the advancement of the kin and the levels too.
If any creature reached here acrossed to thousands of lacs of mile just as normal visit to the next town, " we can imagine what level it will be advanced... "
the brain level and psychci level we are very hard to match them. and they can come to us in normal case t change their mood or for musing and stay with us and go as if they saw the one god film and now the time to home. one can drop station here to search and form our growth and teh level of advancement so that they can keep in track...
one rumour is of they staying in tunnel ad in observance of US Govt. which is building tunnels and underground project of cities too. even one article i read is of usa govt planning to destroy them in the tunnels itself where they are living after their use is over.
It is well documented that the USA has an alien life form. Some say it is kept in area51. In the pass this was easierly passed of by the US government as people didnt want to believe in another species from outer space and having a larger technology then our own. Over the yr's the human race has become more adaptable and now we believe that things are more believable then they did say 30-50 yrs ago.
I do believe that there are other species on this planet that are undiscoverd. They could be living right next door to us, or couild be lurking in shadows.
I'm pretty sure we're not aliens, we do have this whole proof of evolution and all. And I doubt, as cavemen we had the moxy to transplant ourselves from other planets :P
Undiscovered species, so very possible. I mean, periodically there are Yahoo news articles about new life found throughout the world. 'New' life that is VERY old.
There are things we have yet to descover on this plant. There are still areas that we have not explored so there is a great possiblity that new life forms be found. Wether these be of ET nature is anyones guess.
Wow, that's an awesome thought. I wouldn't be surprised at all if there were species we don't even know about living on the earth, where we haven't ventured.
There are places left undiscovered on the earth, we know that there are sea creatures that we've never been able to really examine before...I can see how there may be creatures living underground, under the earth, farther than we can go, that we have never, and probably will never discover.
Used to i did a good bit of reading on aliens and Roswell and other aspects of this subject but haven't in years.
When i was reading though i believe i honestly thought that it was possible that there were other lifeforces here on earth with the rest of us.
I mean everyone considers they are outer space beings but seems like they would be thinking the same of us to an extent.
I do like your thoughts of maybe hiding in the hills because of the way humans have seemed to wreck the planet in some aspects.
I've actually never thought about aliens in this point of view. You bring up a great point though!
If they are another Earth species but more advanced, it is possible that they left the planet when the climates were starting to change(i.e., after the Ice Age when the temperatures started rising in more areas across the world). With their advanced intelligence, they may have known these events were going to occur which is why they built their space-ships and left Earth.
P.S. I apologize if I've repeated anything that others may have said before I posted my response. I do not read other responses because I do not want them to cloud my own judgement/response for the question posted. *smile*
If a race was imagined to exist in the hollows of the planet they would be under greater pressures then the surface they would , it could be imagined, need to be contained in some compression craft to surface.
Well considering that we know more about the solar system than our own ocean I believe it is very likely there are things out there still yet to be found. Also the amount of eye witnesses that say they see things that dont look to be the norm there has to be some truth to it. I also believe in aliens but that like a totally different story.
The lochness monster thread got me thinking about other species that have been "undiscovered" on this planet, and I've heard speculation on whether aliens are simply just another species of earth, while more advanced, can remain nearly undetected because they are so advanced?
Could they simply live underground undetected? Perhaps they were the first "evolved" species of this planet and then we came along and started wrecking the place, so they "fled to the hills". Perhaps these space ships are simply their way of traveling from where they are hiding?
I'd love to get your thoughts on this and whether you have heard this theory before or similar theories and if not, do you believe it might be possible?
Thank you for this ,it goes along with what I call my "ORGINAL INHABITANTS THEORY" I'm glad someone else thought of it, too. My OIT goes towards monsters, demons, vampires, all the mythical beings and such. Yeah, they got smart and hid from man.
♦ ''Could they simply live underground undetected?''
It depends. Where underground would they live? Surely not so far down as the mantle of the earth?
It also depends on whether or not they could avoid a radar or sonar detection.
♦ ''Perhaps they were the first "evolved" species of this planet and then we came along and started wrecking the place, so they "fled to the hills". Perhaps these space ships are simply their way of traveling from where they are hiding?''
This I highly doubt. If they were truly around, the dinosaurs would have obliterated them.
i have heard that the greys or dero come from underground city state called agharta.and originated for lemuria.
also there is a theory that humans came from mars and colonised earth.ive got a book which claims that the moon is a spaceship and its hollow.it says that moon rock is nothing like eart rock and points out that it dose not spin but keeps one face to earth and is unique in the solar sytem for this.
The definition of alien as it pertains to this discussion is,"A creature from outer space."
If they are really from here...we may need to switch up their name some.
My theory is , If there are anything like aliens. They are just like us. I think we are survivors from a planet similar to earth , some stayed behind while we were sent to discover another planet to live on.
I think the race we came from is far more advanced , but may look the same as us. We lost contact . We started from scratch and evolved again.
*shrugs* it's .. almost sort of plausable.
i think that et's could be another species on earth.
they would just look weird like the platypus or something.
maybe like, when somebody finds some, we'll all get used to it like that.
Thats a good point - my cat knows I am here but doesnt know hat I actually am. There are possibly things in our environment that we dont know fully about or can perceive entirely
well anything could be possible.......and i dont think well ever know maybe decades from now well have an answerr..... i always kinda liked how the movie men in black portrayed the aliens...... one never knows.......
Look back over the last copule years on the things being found on this planet, this earth is so big and many places have yet been researched and explored, new tribes and animals what is next, maybe lochness and bifoot, we may never see this yet we still ponder the point on which we as humans may in fact be the aliens to earth.
This is linked with the Hollow Earth "theory".It`s very odd but the Germans scientists tried to ignore the Cartesian way of thinking and construct their own anti-common-logic system of beliefs.If they would have won the war I think we all would of learn on this kind of map:

Just wait until the research is complete.. Then who will be laughing.. ?
Have you invested in exploration? Probly not, so when all the diamond mines are found those who invested will get 200 percent returns on their investments.. I know you probly think I got had but I got the upgraded
Map as well, it's lamenated too.
I personally believe that these ETs are people of the ancient world. Remember the atomic bomb theory in ancient India? It was said in their literature that they have access to nuclear technology which they used in their wars. And it was also said that they had flying machines in which the bomb was carried. And other civilizations had flying machines too which are seen in artifacts recovered by archaeologists. Imagine. An ancient civilization with powers of technology.
Here is the link: World Mysteries.
Here is also another interesting theory. It was said that during the WWII. The Nazi developed advanced aircrafts which looked like flying saucers. Here is the link: wiki
Maybe this would explain modern UFO sightings and government cover ups.
seems wholly possible to me. i personally believe that they are the missing link anyway. why not have continuing/more strains still here...
Had a fasinating documentry on the history channel where all life on earth may have came from an astriod. makes you wonder if these astriods traveled to other galaxies would they infact put the same make up on those worlds that created Earth, assuming it had the makeup as earth in its first stages of life.
Oooo..Oceanne
Loved your thread on Lemurians, which are said to PRE-Date Atlantis. Yes?
Aracon
Pretty interesting thread I believe we've had unknown creatures since the dawn of human kind, from the Paleolithic man to the first known civilization of Sumerians, It is remarkable how many of their ancient knowledge and technological advancements had a similar or impact to the one we had a decade ago, it is very unusual to believe that we grew the knowledge by just looking at the skies. We looked back on time to understand those planets we just discovered decades ago, and they did it without telescope or artifacts of that sorts, there must’ve being an outside influence in this knowledge by those times.
This is an interesting video about the topic for those interested:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYRLdEFNh-I&feature=related
i thought ET was a movie by steven spelberg to cater to the child in all of us...
please provide CONCRETE and SCIENTIFIC proof about either "aliens" (who so ironically resemble humans) or if we humans came from elsewhere please explain the physics involved in their relocation. i aced a lot of advanced astrophysics in college and read on the subject as often as possible... and have never come across ANYTHING that leads there to being any realistic possibility of the traveling of a species such a great distance.
please don't give me some wacky video link with eerie keyboard music and dramatic narrator voice who pauses after asking spooky questions... or some hokey link based on speculation
Bat if we look at the term alien ( which in form means not of this planet) Than here is a good topic to explain realism in life oon earth.
A program aired not to long ago on history chanel about this and if we percieve aliens came from outer space than we all are aliens.
Study suggests life created by asteroid collisions

Good for you and your knowledge in astrophysics, do you want a trophy? I believe i said:
“This is an interesting video about the topic for those interested:”
If you are simply not interested in this topic why come here and ask concrete and scientific proof, go get it yourself if you want it. It is simply out of line to come here and ask for evidence when the whole subject is based on speculation and imaginative reasoning, let people believe, think, speculate, imagine whatever they want, what is your purpose to come here expect to get a proof that no one can give you and;
1. If they “had it” they wouldn’t give it to you in the first place
2. If you get any links or ideas you will just going to say its all bullshit, speculations and conspiracy theories.
Why even bother to type your previous reply on this if you are not going to get any more than this response, you like to steam things up, then go to another website to discuss your math and psychology, let people do what they want and think in here. Not everyone wants to be a fucking robot.
Very interesting thoughts. There are also other sides to our plains. Maybe they could jump from onr to another.
how do we know??
maby there are beings with us that we cant see.....
Good question allucardslittlepet
We do not we assume, that logically nothing or alien beings would be here, based on our own technoligy, yet microscopic life would be considered the same and dust particle from comets forming life would create alien plants and things.
Yet if we ponder more maybe the animals of this life are the earth born inhabitants and we the humans aliens?
There could be proof IF you look for it.....
IS THERE????????????????????????
All theories provided could in fact ring a certain truth to them, think of it this way, how do we positively know that there are not other living beings on other planets or even with in our own planet, even though the most suitable living conditions for our kind are found here on Earth, but what if there are species which do not necessarily have the exact same needs as we do in order to survive? What if there are species who can survive without our basic needs and still be more advanced than our own civilization? The Mayans were a very civilized community that "disappeared" how can any one be 100% sure that there weren't many other cultures also as advanced and that just happened to disappear? Can any body be positively sure that there wasn't something "alien" about them as well?
Earth as a whole has many on top of many different types of species that have yet to be discovered, how can anybody be really sure that what has been claimed to be "aliens" or "from outer space" really isn't a newer, or even an older more advanced species from our own "backyard" that has evolved at much more rapid pace than our own? Humans have a habit of creating hysteria over something they are unfamilar with and can not understand, perhaps the spotting of an "alien from another planet" is in fact one's way of grasping something they can not understand... kind of labeling it to be of "unknown origin" and dismissing it completely from one of our own planet's inhabitants could be the way an "alien" is seen to most humans when they catch a glimpse of something unknown?
Just a thought :)
I'm inclined to go with the theory that "aliens" are native to this planet, but it's more akin to native intelligent energy forms. All throughout our history, particularly in religious and mythological lore, are various accounts of encounters of all kinds with beings, but the cultural reference points change depending on time period and cultural beliefs.
I've seen it called "chimera", (spelling may be off.) and the idea is that someone living in the 16th century Ireland for instance, might have seen a Sidhe lord at a crossroad, or an maybe an Angel if they were Catholic. The same thing might be seen today, in the U.S. but be perceived as a spaceship or space man, or if encountered in Guatamala, be seen as either a Blessed Virgin Mary or a space man, depending on the individual.
It all comes down to the individual in question, on how this energy is interpreted by the brain, but something seems to be getting interpreted on a regular basis, and has been doing so since the very beginnings of civilization.
I've seen a few paranormal investigators put forth this position now, and they tend to research more than just one area of the paranormal..one researched monsters, UFOs, religious sightings, ghosts and poltergeists, where another researched primarily UFOs and ETs, but also noted a lot of ghost and poltergeist activity going on simultanously, but largely ignored and unreported by those researchers specifically considered "UFOphiles".
OH...almost forgot...(and apologies if anyone else noted this already..Im having a slow load night tonight, so Im kind of skipping over replies.)
For the theory of native aliens hiding out from us courtesy of greater technologies....they actually might not need it. We only see and hear within a limited range, while the light and sound spectrums are much wider than we can percieve. If they exist outside those ranges, we'd never see or hear them, unless they crossed through the spectrums we can see or hear. This has been suggested as a possible explanation for why there have been UFOs picked up on radar while invisible to the naked eye.
i read that the greys or dero come from within the hollow earth.UFOs seem to have come from nazi germany and are made by americans or the fourth reich in antarctica.
catseye
Would like to see a link on the theory of Nazi and ufo's if you possible have one. An intersting concept.
i just had a dejavu with you ~cradlewolf~ and your last post but when i tried to decipher what comes next i spoiled it lol... Shit
Thanks December N., It just so happens I once pondered how a backwood country boy would respond upon encountering a "Rainbow Tribe" rave in the middle of the most rural areas.
As it so happens sightings peeked in Wyomin ( sp) around the time of a Rainbow gathering.
Catseye, Cadrewolf, Revenous...
John Keel writes fairly extensively in a couple of his books, about the UFO sightings during the Cold War Era. Several countries actually did accuse both the United States and U.S.S.R. of being behind the UFO phenomena, and in fact, the United States and U.S.S.R. accused each other of it as well. ( particularly the CIA and KGB.)
In some cases, such as the "ghost submarines", it was one or both of them sneaking around in foreign waters. However, part of what gave the UFO phenomena some small credibility was that after the Cold War ended, and both countries were able to compare notes a little bit on the subject, it sparked a craze particularly in Russia's scientific community. Apparently neither side was as guilty of being behind the phenomena as the other had believed.
He also talks about "Deros" which are robot aliens...and discusses the plausibility of underground UFO bases etc. (This too is actually a very old idea, with everything from the Sidhe to Native American tribal spirits coming from below ground.)
As for the Nazis....you'd be looking for the information on "Foo Fighters" of World War 2. Again, both the Allies and the Axis powers believed each other were behind these mysterious lights that would zip around the fighter planes during that time. Incidentally, it's never been proven (to my knowledge anyway,) that they were of a particular origin to any country involved, much less Germany.
~grins at Dabbler~
I'd imagine they'd have been taken for the Wild Hunt lol. But in all seriousness...it's a good point there.
Referencing Keel again, he made a strong argument on just this sort of thing. He recounts the story of his very first visit to the Point Pleasant W.Virginia area, where he'd run off the road in his car on a particularly rainy middle of the night on one of the back roads.
He was from New York, wore his hair a little on the long side and had a beard, and he was wearing a suit. He didnt stand out at all in New York looking like this in the 1960s, but when he went knocking on the door of a local resident of Point Pleasant....where suits were very uncommon, and so were beards and hair below the collar on a man....he shows up on foot, in the middle of the night....there was apparently some speculation as to whether or not he might be the Jersey Devil.
;)
I guess it would depend on what type of aliens you are speaking of because they have been described in many ways and from various places. Some believe the Grays, which most people think of when speaking about aliens, are merely androids sent out on scientific exploration because it is too far for the real species which are thought to look like us to travel. There are so many theories. Some believe they are remnants of the Atlantis civilization that went into the earth and those that made bases under the oceans and other bodies of water. They could very well send out android type beings as well, who knows as I surely don't. There has been a trip planned for a long time to take a ship, one that can go through ice (from Russia) to look for the opening into the earth. Last I checked it kept being cancelled (Hollow Earth theory followers) Things have been found in the area of suspect floating in the water such as wooly mammoths, flora and fauna. There are theories that these beings are us traveling in time after we have basically destroyed all resources here and totally destroyed the earth for prime habitable living. They no longer can procreate and they are trying to fix the problem. There are so many theories I cannot count them on two hands. Lemuria is one of the many. My answer still is I don't know. There was a symposium on all of this held at MIT in the 90s by scientists who have no involvement normally with this topic. They felt there was enough evidence to warrant a closer look. They hired a writer to write down all the proceedings and they had many abductees in attendance. I have the book but never read it through so I don't know really what their conclusions were. There were others invited to it as well that endeavor in the area of ETs and Ufology. I would suspect it got panned...seems to be the nature of the beast. I think a lot of us would like to know this answer. Some relate much of the abduction anyway to night terrors/sleep paralysis. It doesn't account for all the other sitings that were not connected to sleeping. It would be interesting if they were from here but if they are truly as advanced as they seem I wouldn't come forward because we are a violent species and scare easily and would try to kill them or dissect them. This is my opinion so I don't know if we will ever find out at least I would say in the next hundred years or ever. They say there have been many civilizations that have ultimately been destroyed here and others rose to take their place. If there is any credence to that then perhaps we did expand into space and some are now coming back to see what happened here so much later.
i think the bioculture is on so many uncountable planets in universe which are suitable to getting heat of the type of earth. but civilizations we dont know may there be most advance than us thats why we are searching them. if they are capable of crossing gallaxies, believe me they are no threat to us coz they already developed to that level that we are not predator to them.
If life could in fact travel galaxies, why would they come to here to watch us when we can barely reach the surface of space, what do we have to offer aliens in order for them to stalk us?
besides for food and malicious experiments there would be no other reason.
Why would it be for food and malicious experiment? whos says is that or the only purpose they would come here? what are our interest on discovering new species in the deepest trenchs? why we study animals, enviroments, behaviors, habitats? why we study cultures and history? why we study everything? Not everything has to do with what material things we can get from others lifeforms, more of how does it works that intrigues the curious to look for. We don't eat what we study, observe or experiment. Those people who make documentary about lions,tigers or any animal, dont kill them after they stalk them with cameras and collars, they just observe and study, pretty much what we would do if we held the technology to visit any other alien planet with lifeforms.
WHY the hell would some "advanced" species be hidden among us? why at this point would they not help us to bail ourselves out of this mess that billions of years of evolved life on our planet and perhaps 10000 years of "civilization" has gotten humanity to?
human beings, to paraphrase agent smith in the matrix, are a VIRUS. an infection. (and sorry there is no NEO about to be unplugged, dodge bullets and save humanity "because he believes")
human beings have become more self indulgent, material, self-destructive, un-esoteric, out of touch with others, environmentally degrading, and ANIMAL-LIKE as society has "progressed".
LET'S LOOK AT A FEW CAPSTONES OF OUR ADVANCEMENT:
*walmart and its 70% of products made in china
*hot topic, ozzfest, paris hilton
*agent orange, landmines, nuclear weapons
*female castration, female infanticide in china
*diamond mining in africa, toxic rain, ozone depletion
*razing rainforest as to provide land for McDonald's beef
*the "patriot act"
*2003 other things i am not listing as to conserve space
WE ARE NOT MOVING ALL THAT FORWARD!!!
WE ARE MOVING SIDEWAYS/BACKWARDS
we are a JOKE collectively
YES!!!! humans... we have squandered our gift of reason
we want an excuse - an explanation - an answer
the question? "why is humanity so ugly?"
and we have our answer -HUMAN NATURE. imperfection. institutions. history. facts. freewill to act ridiculous.
and we keep acting more and more so as institutions/technology/pop culture/time/ego advance!!!
but some answer the question of the nature of man with more questions... as to avert the mess we've become, as to dodge the hell we have constructed. for example....
some put their faith in :
-the hidden aliens who will save us all
-listening to my chemical romance and "being emo"
-thinking they're special/different-(for example VAMPIRES!)
-material things
-organized religion or ideologies (take your pick...)
-coke meth speed weed lithium valium whatever fills the fix
******************************************
there is ZERO scientific evidence to support the REALITY of existence in VAMPIRES, ALIENS from distances light years away or right among us, the mothman, living garden gnomes, aprophodite and poseidon... on ANY OTHER MENTAL CONSTRUCTION that has been invented to make people feel "connected" to something beyond the simple, common, mundane truths of what mankind has become as a whole...
******************************************
I contend "aliens among us", whether they lived deep underground or in antarctica or in the ocean or new jersey would at this point be likely to do one of two things...
A.) warn us directly that WE ARE FUCKING UP
B.) vaporize us for our stupidity
if these purported "visitors" just so happened to have technology to build pyramids and mayan temples and blah blah blah "check this speculated internet link" THAN WHY THE FUCK HAVE THEY NOT HELPED US, WARNED US, OR DESTROYED US???????????
what's the holdup? is it not the "right time"? that sounds like some dungeons and dragons fantasy shit to me.
THE REASON THAT ET ARE NOT MERELY ANOTHER SPECIES AMONG US IS THAT THEY ARE NOT AMONG US!
faith alone in them is speculation... fantasy.... mythology. faith in such beings is PROOF not in openmindedness, but more so in human's egocentric fascination in trying to explain everything!!! humans think they control everything and are so special and different. this egotistical pride operates collectively (look at what we have created as humans!)(war, famine, disease, axl rose, rape, racism, sexism, etc etc etc).
this ego also functions in a microcosm as exhibited how people fly off the handle in a thread like this when some logic is injected into the mix.
again... no PROOF = not REAL. imaginary construct. that's what ET life is. to satisfy human fear, confusion and ego in providing "answers" to the unanswerable.
*****************************************
please don't get cockily sarcastic trying to think i want some trophy for having read about scientific realities of astrophysics and its correlation to the unlikeliness of aliens among us... if you read some high level physics about the behavior of atomic particles you would be amazed at how on the subatomic level electrons actually seem to behave in bizarre & UNEXPLAINED ways that seem as if they have consciousness. as perhaps EVERYTHING in this universe is alive and operates in patterns/orbits(but with abnormalities). and we silly little humans perhaps only see "life" as we want to -RESEMBLING US!!!! that's one of the things that draws me to read science/math/philosophy - the mystery and complexity of the universe on a level microscopic and cosmic. and that's why if i want FICTION i read tolkien, poe, or any of the classics on my bookshelf...
*********************************************
i have never ever doubted that life exists off of our big blue marble which lies in a very average solar system orbiting a very average yellow mid-life star... all i've tried to bring up in this thread that the scientific and mathmatical chance of aliens among us is about as likely as lightning striking in the same location 243 times in a row.
I IMPLORE ANYONE. PLEASE prove me otherwise and i'll believe... but i will NEVER blindly follow myth, religion, george bush, zoloft or any other construct of man's (lack) of civilization and his scurrying for excuses and answers to follow along. life, for a mortal like me who won't be beamed up by aliens into infinity or drinking the blood of others basking in my immortal vampire status... is too damn short to put blind faith in. i'll believe in me, my friends, and the hope that mankind will figure it out before it does itself in...
"hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side"
Bat and reveous good points to ponder on if there was aliens among us.
True humans are creatures of habit, they are evil in the essence of alawys trying to be the top of everything, yet if aliens persay were her of visitng, would they step in our watch as we destroy ourselves like some TV show.
i think if they somehow were among us they would not be interested in US... but perhaps in our resources. the earth we live on is a unique sum of rarer elements. perhaps they would use carbon for fuel... or use radon, uranium, titanium, or aluminum, etc for one application or another. maybe they would have a way to compress living matter into fossil fuels quickly (if for some absurd reason they used such wasteful and primitive means of energy). but i see no reason why they would just wait around. there reaction would possibly be INDIFFERENT due to our destructive stupidity that i have been eluding to... "um - well kt426, these ones look hopeless... let's move on to the next possibility... these ones are moving towards extinction on their own"
~looks at Bat7777 a moment, then applauds.~
That was an impressive speech, with a lot of excellent points. One thing tho...
There's alot of accounts of warnings, both in the religious sightings and the alien contactee stories. So much so in fact, that they generally fall into one of two categories.
1. Warnings against the use of nuclear energy and nuclear weapons.
2. Warnings of Environmental disaster.
Though I agree with you, I dont think they've any intention of stepping in an "saving" the human race. For one thing, I dont think they physically CAN. And secondly, I agree with the sentiment of why would they.
Most humans cant treat each other decently on an internet server, where it really doesnt matter or count. The only time we seem capable of it, is in the face of a major catastrophe, and even then, it's probably 40 60 ratio on between those rising to the occasion of helping each other, and those who turn predator and grab what they can.
And while for the most part, yeah I think people do try to add some meaning to their lives, through a belief in gods, aliens or vampires etc, and see nothing wrong with it, I also know there's some people out there who will use it to claim a sense of power over others. It really comes down to the individual in question though.
While some of it may be nothing more than a placebo effect, I think there is still Something out there (or maybe in there.) but we also may never be able to define it. Not through science, and not through any "Divine Revelation". And just because I feel it is there, doesnt mean it will save us from ourselves.
