One of the best Sci Fi films ever done was Contact based on Carl Sagan's book, even though huge chunks were omitted, i still overall enjoyed it.

Make sure you're yelling "Spartacus!" at the top of your lungs too.

I made a tinfoil hat once but it really didn't look good on me, so I made a bra and panties out of foil instead.

We will meet inferior aliens when we get the technology to travel the galaxy.

Personally I find it more ridiculous to think that in the entire universe we are the only intelligent life.

I agree, but nobody's suggested such a thing here.

I find it hard to believe too.

However, I find it very very easy to believe that of all the intelligent races that might exist, not one has figured out faster than light travel

It could very well be that such a thing can't be done, and that all the sci-fi ideas about wormholes and such are not feasible.

That'd suck. But even then you wonder why SETI's not picking up "I Love Gugy".

I've thought of that too. My thoughts are that maybe SETI ain't all it's cracked up to be, or they don't use radio. I mean, just because WE use radio waves to communicate over distances, doesn't mean other's haven't figured something else out. Doesn't have to be all futuristic and complicated either really, just something we plain haven''t thought of.

Maybe it'd be like, if we were shown it, we'd be all like, "Holy CRAP! Why didn't we think of that??"

How would we meet aliens that are technologically inferior to us without us being technologically advanced enough to go to their planets?

seems ridiculous a question to ask..

But then, that's all this has been posted for.. ridicule. hope you feel better.

Remember that lost tribe that we took photos of recently in a flyover by plane and helicopter?
Reckon the tribesmembers that didn't see the plane are thinking that the ones who did are loonie UFO enthusiasts?
