Save the Aliens!

You given all plenty to think about that is for sure . I've always asked why are humans so arrogant as to think we are the only ones? run your spell check couple of errors there. Otherwise It is good to see something like this from you. Chrystalie

A powerful write here. I approve, applaud, support. Thanx, Chuck PS: BTW, sorry for my picture. Only a few days ago I was a caterpillar ... and am now morphed a butterfly. But if I were destined to be a butterfly, I'm glad it's a monarch. Perhaps now I can dictate, as kingly monarchs like to do, the way of the world. Hopefully.

Considering the self-destructive nature of the human race, I am quite willing to believe that alien races, probably of higher intelligence, will see us as little more than either pets, or food. Interesting write. Will have to read back through as it was a little long - but got the overall point the first time around. ~Jess K. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~ "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson ~ "Tonight's forcast: dark, continued dark tonight, turning to partly light in the morning..." - George Carlin

and glad to see you writing and such an interesting topic.. I completely agree.. as I feel if there were a God... in his or her infinite wisdom... why would he/she put all the marbles on the human race.. I think it is man who needs to believe there is nothing out there to stay the self-important beings we are.. and space is too vast for that to be true... the good thing is it is not just my opinion... I love it when a poem excites me into a comment... thank you for sharing with us.. Richard

Humans, at this stage of evolution, are the the only ones afaik that have within them the power of conscious awareness: *I* contain multitudes, including the light of 10000 suns. Even if there is another evolutionary cycle beyond human, it's still in the capacity of *human conscious awareness*. Great poem... thank you. Hugs, Anna

Save us from ourselves, hum? maybe if we could all just get along in order to work on humanity instead of nationality, maybe? Great write friend, Mark

I'll dig out an article about the new wave of survivalist folks who see impending economic disaster... Never mind the alien from another galaxy... just like the old Twilight Zone episodes, the fear is the alien in one another... and how to survive. ~Anna A s f ar a s i k now

that we can. But the realist in me proclaims we won't. Yours, Chuck

Greed and ultimate power will be the down fall of man, It’s evidently clear that things are going tits up already, The impact of the human race, and the rate of growth, has i believe Tipped the balance of nature, seas will become baron, wildlife extinct and if climate change doesn't redress first, it will be us driving the final nail in, Sorry to join the show late. But as always Jess....A very stirring recite, Very Best Regards Peter ~~~~~~~~~Creativity Is to think more efficiently~~~~~~~~~~

Interesting and thought provoking piece. Extra terrestrial life? Wonder whether we will ever find out for sure. The other question: we sure look like we are on a roller coaster ride to destruction. Take care

well...colour me green... but I think we're all just starting to wake up to the roles we've taken .... when we realize that... the alien will have come home... and we'll plant seeds that will not fall on fallow ground. Now wouldn't that be a nice story?

So why no irrefutable contact? A few reasons come up, maybe faster than light travel is truly impossible maybe we just don’t recognise them, in their alien-ness, my favourite is by the time they know enough to pass between the stars, they know enough not to fuck with the natives. Moondoll claps madly in approval- and I mean that seriously. This is simply brilliant. Maybe, just maybe they already know about us ( I suspect they have done for years) and have decided we need to 'grow' a little and stop messing up our own world before they even think about inviting us to theirs? I know I would. Regardless, this is a fantastic poem and I feel one of your best. Nothing to criticise here at all so it scores 5 from me! Kaz It's impossible to smile on the outside without feeling better on the inside.

(((Jess))) Thanks for writing this. It is a topic near and dear to my heart! Always, Cat

Smiles:) Barbara I disagree with your idea of human being special because we are, the messiah was provided for us, but this is written with such a profound poetic talent my concentration on your views of aliens and our vast universe captivated me and held my attention. Imagining the awesome intellect behind such celestial things is enjoyable for me to read in your poem even if I don't believe there are other life out there besides us. Maybe there are but is no concrete evidence to believe otherwise. Then that just my opinion.

grew up with National Enquirer as a kid there was stories about Aliens amongst us Up here there was stories about Lights in the sky around Temagami etc in the late forties and just recently we have sent space probes and moon landings and viewed distant planets in fine High definition detail Oh and the Hubble has given up new notions that there are infinite galaxies millions of light years upon years away or where ever they are today because after all that what we are viewing is the past beyond our own existence as far as I can see we are only contained to contaminating this planet and the Messiah said he would be back or amongst us I like what you said Jess that maybe he was dying a million deaths out there that we will either be consumed by our own humanity which entails wars havoc and emolation by nuclear resolution OR somehow something again happens to allow us to somehow see one another as true brother and sister but what about that tower called Babel or what about the Muslims now they believe in Mohummad they dont believe in that Jesus fellow and they are pretty determined in their beliefs also And if we had a vehicle that could visit distant "places" if "light-speed" meant also"time travel" You could hop an overnighter and meet an old time poet Or go ahead and see if anyone is reading your published works say fifty years after your dead and if you are truly ambitious rule a little planet or place carve some statues leave a temple or two Horus looked pretty interesting Christianity has been around though for awhile clay pots and goats notwithstanding if there are any captured aliens in Nevada i hope they are making the new electric cars and alcohol fuel vehicles on reverse technology LED lights etc its just so strange that as we progress from primitive the costs of feeding ourselves will be "skyrocketing" and going "out of this world" My favourite story about Jesus was about a group he was going to help by teaching the scriptures and all they wanted to see was a "miracle" and he said "okay You want a miracle I cured so and so over two miles away in the village" of course the person was cured but he was let down The Messiah!! Yes by all means save the aliens they will be interesting! what are the chances of having a mirror universe somewhere ??

How brilliant orgami. I offer for your pleasure a movie called "The Double Life of Veronique". http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101765/ Not to be missed... check out wiki... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Double_Life_of_V%C3%A9ronique Much I can say about aliens, but if I do... i'd have to kill everyone... much like the Buddha on the road;-) Love.

I have always thought it was rather arrogant of us to believe we are the only life in the universe. Even if a person believes in God, and I loved your lines about so many deaths, it said He created the Heavens and the Earth, nowhere does it say he only created us. A hell of a long read, but actually worth it. Some damn well made points! Rett ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Some call me lazy, I prefer Energy Conservationist~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That's P.C. speak by the way.

Regret saying this so here I go.lol. My take on both the poem and the conversation it fueled. I am late to read this , but here goes. I believe in this universe we can not be alone. If God created the universe as we are want to believe, then where was he when he did it? Where did God come from? Yes, I am asking and I answer my own questions with this...God did not come from Earth! He created it, so that makes him...Yes, an Alien. Before some of you come for me with pitch forks and torches examine what an alien is. This is what I am saying. It is unlikely that there is no origin for God, if you believe in him. So if God came from some where else other then earth, we can not be the only ones. My newest question to my many is what if we find we are the Martians. What happens if all the ancients were right and we did travel around. Mars could have been earth. This planet could be our do over. If it is we are not passing again. Thats enough for now. I love this type of discussion. Sorry I read this so late. Good one Jess. Dana

Jess, I wholeheartedly believe there is life out there. Only man would be arrogant enough to believe that in a universe so vast that man can barely comprehend,we are the only planet with intelligent life. I think not. As for why they've not made contact? Well if they're advanced enough to visit, they're smart enough to know that we are basically a warrior race. What would be the first thing we'd do if a UFO were to hover over Washington DC? We'd dispatch fighters to shoot it out of the sky. Great writing...enjoyed it alot! Take Care, Brian

God is alien and maybe an alien but what does matter is He has comunicated maybe he is the reinging warloard in our sections of the heavens maybe he did create us maybe he sent his son to bring us all together maybe satan is his rival then what? I love the Star Gate tv series and Star Trac I can't say I totally get God or what his motivations are But I Know thier is some one out there and he is trying if he hasn't already made contact I believe we are too ignorarnt to comphrened his motives and or Love and we are dangerously vilable we might be in a peatree dish in a bio hazarad lab in his space ship But I tend to believe in creation rather then eviloution Mabye I am vain maybe the world is flat no wonder we are left alone we are not sure of anything and have proven nothing so by faith we our save either way I see no air but I know it is their there for I breathe I love aliens especially the one that make the best tacos Donnie/Sinbad
