I want to present this in a theoretical way so that we can hopefully avoid spending the whole thread arguing about whether or not aliens really exist
and if so whether or not they want to "rule the world" eventually. I want to speculate about why an ET race would take so long to work towards a
takeover and WHAT they were working towards achieving........
Let's suppose that many millenia ago there was a highly advanced Utopian-like society on Earth complete with lots of fabulous technology , flying
crafts and all the rest of it. The beings who acted as leaders of this Utopian society were not from Earth, and had fashioned primitive man into the
evolved version of homo sapiens we know today via genetic engineering. All was running smoothly when global disaster struck, wiping out most of the
human race along with most of the technology. A relatively small number of survivors made it through, with human beings scattering around the world
and the ET leaders taking off someplace else for a time in the few ships that were undamaged. Maybe they went underground, maybe they departed Earth
for a time. Perhaps they could not reutn "home" because they had been ostracized by their race for some reason. Why did they leave...? Perhaps
because Earth was pretty much laid to waste after the cataclysm, such that there was nothing really left. If much of the world had been under water
for example, they would have needed to wait until those waters subsided.....that could have taken thousands of years perhaps .
Such was the scale of the disaster that mankind were effectively rendered primitive once again. The "gods" re-emerged after a time, and began making
attempts to put back the pieces. By now their numbers were far fewer, but those who did survive were given different parts of the world to visit in
efforts to re-civilize humanity and re-gain control over their "creations". This task proved difficult - there were just not enough of them, nor
enough technology any more to have the kind of influence they needed in order to "reign" humans in. These humans had changed too - they were not so
easy to mould, for they had tasted independence and freedom after a long time without being ruled by the gods....tales of gods from the past were a
distant legend to them, holding little meaning for them .
The Gods wanted to re-build their Atlantis, but with the loss of most of their technology and a vastly depopulated human race, the prospect of this
was always going to be a long, hard, upward struggle. Without the full range of their technology, global conditioning and influence of the masses was
never likely to happen just via impressive oratory alone...and so they realized they would have to wait - wait for mankind to re-evolve, to reach a
point in their development whereby vast leaps were being made in science and technology. A small group of gods would never be able to achieve global
scientific progress alone, they would need humans to help them, without these humans even realizing that the advancements they would make in science
and technology would be things used against them by the very beings who created them. The gods would have to wait thousands of years for mankind to
become "hi tech".....with the discovery of the atom came the turning point in mankinds scientific evolution, and not long after that the gods began
to reveal themselves once again.......
Throughout their waiting time, the gods took a back seat, supervising from behind the scenes while "kingship" of Earth had been granted temporarily
to members of a select group of bloodlines who we know as the Illuminati today. These elite groups of guardians were entrusted with the battle plan
for control over the minds and souls of those they ruled over and promised all manner of great benefits for their loyalty once the plan had been
achieved.
The main strategy for laying the foundation for the New Atlantis was laid out in the Christian bible. The chosen bloodlines saw it as their divine
mission to manifest prophecy, and such was their strength and power and insidious infiltration of every major system that plays a part in helping
planet Earth function, this deliberate "fulfillment" of "prophecy" was relatively straightforward. Religion had also served another hugely
important function -to divide mankind. Only a divided species could go on to be conquered after all, and what way was there to better fracture mankind
than to pit them against one another spiritually ....
Once the foundation for the return was all in place , a pruning of the human species was needed. Humans had served their purpose in many ways, not
least of which was to have unwittingly re-created for the gods huge amounts of previously lost technology . Now most of them had to go , for there was
no room for 6 billion in the New Atlantis and humans had become a species abhorrent to them in every way - independent, rebellious, immoral, impure,
imperfect etc......
By cleverly influencing the insitgation of many world religions , Christianity in particular, the depopulation agenda could be fulfilled : 2 billion
Christians awaiting the second coming of a fictionalized saviour who from the outset of their cunningly crafted religious agenda they always knew
would never accept them. They devised the idea of an "anti-christ" so that humans would distrust the emissary they presented as "Saviour"....all
the time that emissary being the one and only "saviour" who was ever coming . And that saviour being an evil extraterrestrial anyhow....That would
nicely take care of 1/3 of the planet when the world leaders of earth declared microchipping of humanity be made mandatory in the wake of the fragile
new ET-Human alliance, in the interest of global security. There would after all be alot of protest when the ETs openly revealed themselves - the only
way to control the chaos would be to enforce strict new laws to protect the visitors, who were here to help us after all....
With a few "natural" disasters thrown in, a nice big Middle East -Western war , a man made plague etc to fulfill prophecy before their return
....and a whole load of non-religious as well as religious folks resisting the chip after their arrival, they were counting on perhaps 4/5 of the
population getting wiped out, leaving a number that was far more manageable for them to maintain control over. The microchips installed in those that
made it through would be uploaded with some programme to make the survivors "forget" all that had happened.
Then begins the rebuilding of their Utopian world ...
-A brainwashed, microchipped population
-Inferior humans phased out via genetic engineering, replaced gradually by super-intelligent people who will help them make further leaps and bounds
in technology so that they can set about making rapid progress with space exploration, build vast new fleets of ships, etc
- A one world government, justice system and "religion" to unite the world "as one".
- Natural reproduction banned , replaced eventually by lab created humans to keep the genetic pool "perfect"
- The end of the internet and perhaps the burning of books across the world. All information given to the Atlanteans would be completely controlled in
every single way.
- The microchips would eventually be improved upon, with programmes installed for controlling thoughts, emotions and behaviour and tracking those same
things aka "Minority Report"
Rome, as they say, was not built in a day.....Wise men have patience..........
So, these are my thoughts on this "hypothetical" scenario....I'm sure there are holes in my theory as to why they waited so long to takeover so
perhaps you can fill those in and/or add your own ideas as I am very interested to know what the rest of you think as to what reasons the ETs in this
story could have had for taking a very long time to work towards a global takeover.....
