UM-Bot Posted September 10, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 10, 2019 An Oxford University survey asked the British public who they would trust to respond to first contact with ET. https://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/330334/who-decides-what-we-should-say-to-aliens 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Desertrat56 Posted September 10, 2019 #3 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I think who ever they approach first is going to get to decide what to say to them. If they are smart enough to get to our planet for what ever reason, they will be smart enough not to go to any government leader. 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer77 Posted September 10, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I like the results Quote The results indicated that the most popular opinion, with 39% of the vote, was to leave the decision of how to respond to extraterrestrial visitors up to members of the scientific community 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't worry about those. They'd probably stick around long enough to see how Dallas, Dynasty, Beverly Hills 90201 and Game of Thrones ends. And then they'd say: - Take us to your leader! - You mean the orange guy? No, that's a really bad idea! How about the pope? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OverSword Posted September 10, 2019 #9 Share Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) Probably one of the people would be Mazlan Othman I've also heard that the US government has David Brinn selected. He's sane enough to believe that would never happen. Edited September 10, 2019 by OverSword 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stiff Posted September 10, 2019 #11 Share Posted September 10, 2019 It depends on what their intentions are. If they're peaceful then yes, I agree with scientists greeting them. However, if they're hostile and intent on killing then I'd like to see Kanye West put forward. 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatetopa Posted September 11, 2019 #18 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Well most likely we will be sending them radio transmissions before they land. The big three or four nations will probably overpower the smaller transmissions. I predict they will all broadcast thew same signal: "The other transmissions are lies, do not trust them. Land here." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLCsector3295 Posted September 11, 2019 #22 Share Posted September 11, 2019 seems like this topic was brought up on the forum before oxford ever got to it. More over the question should probably be what makes anyone think another advance species would want to talk to humanity to begin with. It would be like anyone from this point in time, going back in time to the time of cavemen . An then what really is there to talk about to begin with ? The b.s cliches of life I suppose. I just do not see communicating or mixing humans with another intelligent race as being anything worth while, when humanity barely speaks to each other on a neighborly level to begin with. An to imagine how ever religious and political leader would be tripping over themselves and foaming at the mouth to be the first to speak, is even worse to imagine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
