To Hell in a Handbasket | Aliens!

The question s not whether we are the aliens. The question is not whether we need more pond scum. The question isn't even if humanity would riot in the streets if we found out whether intelligent life exists Somewhere.

The question is what we would do when we find out.

My bet is that if we found out there ws intelligent life somewhere in the universe, we would do everything within out technological capability to seek that life out, irregardless of the consequence, just to let them know that we were there... that we exist... that life has taken root somewhere other than with them...

That path has many questions to consider, many paths to contemplate.
