But aliens abduct humans to experiment on. Don't you think that they would travel to an earlier period of time when humans were less harmful? Like, the 60's or something?

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:08 PM

Man, I don't even know if the 60s were less harmful. More drugs, I guess, but I mean, we were in the middle of a war and stuff.

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:11 PM

well, you'd be a demigod, not a real god

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:11 PM

there might be like good aliens and bad aliens

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:12 PM

You'd still be omnipotent, omnipresent, all that, right?

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:14 PM

You wouldn't have god powers!

You would just know what could happen

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:14 PM

Yes. I mean, In like every religion, omnipotence = big pimpin, and to a lesser extent, spendin cheese.

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:15 PM

aliens could have built the pyramids

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:16 PM

No, cos. If you could time travel, you could change stuff too. Just use your imagination.

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:18 PM

I was just watching X-Files and the japanese were trying to create a race of alien human hybrids.

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:19 PM

Crazy Japanese. Where'd they get the alien parts?

titsmurf · 08-11-2003, 09:20 PM

I don't actually think we'll ever travel back in time. Scientists today definately wouldn't go back in time if they had a time machine, because they'd be afraid of changing things back here in the present. There's no reason to believe they'll get more stupid in the future.

I've heard so much about those insane worm-holes these days that I don't really attach much value to that whole thing. It seems a bit too convenient to be true. I'll have to actually see one of those things, and see it do all the nifty things science tells us it might do, before I'll believe it.

I mean... people nowadays laugh when they hear doctors once thought leeches were the cure to all diseases. I have a feeling that in 400 years, people might be laughing at our wormholes too.

Tex · 08-11-2003, 09:23 PM

Aliens don't exist.

See Fermi's Paradox

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:23 PM

Was it Japanese or Alien japanese?

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:26 PM

It looked like an alien. I couldn't tell if it was japanese or anything. Maybe it was.

Maybe we are the aliens destined to colonize the galaxy.

what if alens are coming now to enslave us?

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:31 PM

Maybe, the aliens are microscopic. Or maybe, WE'RE microscopic.

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:37 PM

What if planets were like aliens, and we were germs. But we didn't realize it because we didn't have the persepective.

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:39 PM

well size is all relative man

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:39 PM

Ooh. That's neat. But, what exactly is the aliens/planed thing? The rocks and stuff? Maybe, the sum of all life on the planet is essentially one being that we live off of.

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:41 PM

And the motion of the planets sets the 'beat' of the relative ammount of time that passes. So all we have to do to time travel is speed up the planet. I dunno, maybe rockets or something?

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:44 PM

You know whats funny? That like makes complete sense. If we sped the planet up, then we'd have sped up time itself! OMG WHAT IF TIME IS SEASONAL! WHAT IF WE LEAVE THE ORBIT!

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:45 PM

Why would aliens want to enslave us anyways?

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:46 PM

I don't think man is ready for this kind of responsibility. Being flawed and all.

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:46 PM

Get on topic cos. Jeez. We're talking about speeding up the planet.

We'd be like pets to them. They would make us do tricks and stuff

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:48 PM

Maybe they'd enslave us for the same reasons that mankind is enslaved in the matrix. Maybe they need our bodies for power!

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:49 PM

well the planet is going 1000 mph

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:49 PM

Couldn't they like, use cows or something?

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:52 PM

I guess that we'd know if aliens have enslaved us... Cause of the massive cow shortages.

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 09:54 PM

they do multilate cows

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 09:56 PM

You'd think that they could like, scan the cow or something instead of dissect it. Shouldn't they have tricorders if they're super advancecd?

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 09:56 PM

Can aliens time travel? Maybe thats how they've avoided us for so long.

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 10:01 PM

Probably. Maybe those 'grey' aliens are more evolved humans!

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 10:02 PM

Aliens ahve super technology, I bet they can time travel

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 10:02 PM

It would make perfect sense! If I was more evolved, I sure wouldn't want to spend time with you losers. I'd use my evolutionary powers to hide... In time!

Tonic · 08-11-2003, 10:04 PM

Maybe part of their super evolution is coming back in time to dissect us. Like in Bill and Ted, where they come back in time to help themselves all the time.

cosmixmaster · 08-11-2003, 10:07 PM

speaking of evolution, maybe we can get like telekniesis or telepathy

they say the aliens communicate with telepathy

HeadyIncognito · 08-11-2003, 10:07 PM

Why would they want to dissect us? Maybe, the only way to evolve is to assimilate other humans!
