Why wouldnt aliens be like us? VIOLENT

Perhaps the aliens are context-specific violent...i.e. they are violent when feel threatened or in similar situations. We humans are not violent from the get go...we need a reason to be violent.

I agree though that humans have gotten carried away in the last hundred or so years. We are breeding too fast. The last hundred and fifty years of revolutions in science, medicine, industry, transportation, and agriculture have alllowed to us to breed on a rediculous scale. I don't call that evil. It's happend because of an abundance of resources which at this time are finite. Humans don't need to get rid of their survival instincts, but we need to learn moderation.

Absolutely - but to my understanding overpopulation is soley a result of BAD stewardship by our leaders. The greedy pilfering of earth resources by big business and the world bank in the name of the almighty dollar. The cost of a monetary dominated society is an overabundance of plastic, polyester and disease... things that last forever as useless trash and clog up the drain as they say. As well, the advent of modern medicine (beyond severe trauma) is really just a reaction to the toxic, chemical laden environment they have so conveniently created for us to save time while we feed the machines.

I live in Germany at the present. I follow the news obsessively. I know the weather seems to be broke. The honeybees are missing in action. We seem to be having a problem with earthquakes. Lots of weird stuff from birds falling out of the skies, animals washing up on beaches, etc. I wouldn't say were kept in the dark. Most people don't care about it unless it affects them directly.

Oh, then Im certain you're exposed to a clearer stream of news than we here in the US. So true though, most people don't care because they're so up to their ears in the muck they couldn't begin to fathom something different - can't see the forest through the trees as they say. Oh yeah... the honeybees are gone becaue they can't see anymore... too much UV in the atmosphere.

Most of them would consume the entire power output of the sun. To me the real Relative Leap would be from a massive new power source.
Zero Point Energy and Antimatter arn't it at least to power that type of travel.

Anti-matter is not the answer... it's part of it.

Have you read anything by Jaques Vallee?

No, but I've heard of him. Ive mostly studied up on Native American teachings of ET's. What I've found is my experience has a a very old and rich traditional teaching in the Native cultures of the Americas; these beings are well known by them and they relayed some higly detailed accounts of exactly what I experienced so obviously I was drawn to their understanding.
