I welcome alien life because it's not only super cool, but I think it would solve world peace. Humans are territorial and we identify with the smallest group that opposes a perceived enemy. If a neighbor is a jerk, we identify with immediate family. If the enemy is an opposing sports team, we identify with a whole school. If the enemy is another country, we get nationalism. If the perceived enemy was an entire world, we'd all band together to oppose it and we just might possibly start getting along.


That's a jolly thought; we'll all be getting on together as we work to oppose whatever aliens we find, and we can all smile lovingly at each other when those aliens; realising what a terretorial, xenophobic lot we are, wipe us of the face of the earth.

Any intelligent aliens (who, we hope, are not territorial and xenophobic) should be welcomed, and not at
gunpoint.

Richmond.
