The ETs are never going to land on the lawn of the white house then have a meeting with the government. If that ever happens, it will be staged and part of a devious plan to make believe something to the population. As it has always been with such important matters, the truth and the real events happen behind the scenes, the government only tell us what they want us to know.

I think one month after disclosure we would see sponsored UFO'S flying around the football stadia, Antigravity nike sneakers, virtual reality erotica, and package holidays to venus val thors birthplace.

That is a naive assumption, trade is a tool for primitive races. If you have the technology to make virtually anything out of nothing why do [you] need trade??

Would it not also matter who among us had this new wiring. Would there be a mad scramble to "protect" the average citizen from this? Would you need to get a license from your government to do this? Who would control this kind of information?
But yes, if we could all share in the next evolutionary step for mankind, it would be something grand.
Originally posted by jamesderThose in power are human beings, too. The idea of centralized power and male-dominator egocentrism could be wiped from their consciousness with one simple "miracle".
The theory of evolution speaks against this idea, as change seems to be always a gradual curve. Also, the changes brought about by the event of the first coming of Christ are still not universal. Nor are the teachings of Buddha and others.
It seems that humans are slow learners.
While it is entirely possible that a "miracle" could change man, I find that it is unlikely due to the wide range of human thought patterns, and the basic core desire of man to put his own best interests ahead of all else. (The Greed Factor.)
(*I too am not a Christian, and am not using these ideas to promote any idealogical belief system over any other.)

What if their technology was so advanced and species specific it would be useless to us?
Remove the technology advantage from the equation and you are forced to consider the social and theological aspect.
What if they were able to show us there is no god?
What is they were able to show us the future or the past?
What if they were not able to show us anything at all?
