You don't come out and say something like this unless you REALLY know it was coming... You wouldn't just put your reputation on the line would you?

2. His football game has been ruined.
3. His tiny mind explodes as he starts to realise the situation.

I was thinking the same thing. You don't come out and say something like this unless you REALLY know it was coming... You wouldn't just put your reputation on the line would you? I guess we will find out...
I think if this really does go down and happen, I hope people will come accept the E.T's as people just like us, even if they didn't look human at all. Unfortunately our own racism issues will probably come into play at its worst with people, but I really hope such an event will awaken the reasonable and enlightened human spirit within.
Imagine it! We would officially know we were not alone... I hope the human race would become enlightened and overcome racism by truly feeling we are all "From Earth" and one people. And then take the next step and say
"We are all from this universe, and one people".
I hope we don't treat any E.T visitors as "Gods" and put them up on a pedestal.. I think that would be a mistake.
They are just like us, with likes and dislikes, the only real difference being our technological differences.
Yeah, I hope it happens and happens in a right kind of way.

No offense taken man.
I have never even listened to David Wilcock, actually until today I had never even heard of him. Believe me, I am not one to believe people who predict "dates" and any upcoming earth shaking event for that matter. And I really do not believe him.
I just know that for him to come out and say this, that in my eyes is career suicide if it doesn't come true...
But I would say you are correct, his followers and listeners will no doubt continue to keep listening to him once this more than probably doesn't occur, and that is very sad.
I still get excited even just imagining such a scenario happening, that is the reason for my enthusiasm in my post
The religous folk will be out banners flying (jesus hates the aliens)

Because these people are never wrong. When their predictions don't come true, they use all manner of excuses and special pleading about why it didn't happen. The critical thinkers will dismiss them, but those that accepted the story at face-value, who never exercised critical thinking in the first place, will accept the excuses and parrot the reasons why the charlatan wasn't wrong.
I see this as I see parenthood: no one is ever prepared for it, until you have to be when it happens to you. It nonetheless will be hard and you will make mistakes, but if you're waiting for the perfect time to be a parent, you will never be.
