MacLean contended that the reptilian complex was responsible for species typical instinctual behaviors involved in aggression, dominance, territoriality, and ritual displays.

these beings themselves will represent entire planets, if not entire star systems and galaxies. Earth will be represented by many people as they are not unified as a race, but instead are broken into smaller countries and states that differ in opinion on many issues. These aliens may view us the same way that we view tribes in 3rd world countries because they are not bound to a common goal as a race.

people we must become, we have to understand that aliens will not be interested in what plot of land you came from, but the race they represent. With this in mind, I think that a "one world government" is needed to finally unite humans as a race and bring an end to our differences.

No particular being or race can or should represent a Galaxy.
Neither am I a fan of Miss Universe.
As a matter of fact, no one represents me but me.
Disrespecting someone on the grounds that they belong
to a tribe in itself calls for trouble and should not to be
taken kindly. Planet earth has one to many colonialists
causing troubles as it is.
The constitution,
and my little sister.
Any crazies such as the pope, queen, or for that matter any politician
would definitely send the wrong impression.
But there are differences that is the reality. If there
wouldn't be differences it wouldn't be earth.
We are not androids.
Btw what is your definition of 'people' ?
That's what Stalin preached.
Be careful what u wish for.

To me its pretty clear what direction we are going. We are already Corporate Facism. Those still holding on to some American Idealism are not living in reality.
I believe the "pendulum" is going to swing HARD. They people will once again rise up against the machine. Cycles are what we do.
What I am NOT saying is that we need to consolidate the power of our leaders into a one, all-encompassing entity. First thing we have to make sure is understood is that in this new government, the sovereignty of the individual is #1. If this is maintained then all else falls into place. What need would we have for states or countries sovereignty if the individual itself is paramount to all others? All people, no matter where their location on Earth, are granted the same liberties that any other has. The abilities of the government would be limited to what the people allowed it to have, and only able to exist in a way that is favorable to the advancement of the human race. This would create a situation where we could venture into the vastness of space as a species, not as a representative of a plot of land on Earth.
In the end, I think that a "One world government" is nothing more than a reinforcement of self-governance and individual sovereignty.
I think that there will be a need for all us humans to unify someday. The state, country and even the Earth are nothing more that a chunk of dirt with imaginary lines that separate people and governments.

I'm a Christian so I believe every problem can be solved by following the teachings of Jesus. So that's my niche in effecting the progression of the world - promote Jesus. However, Jesus has become the focus of much slander and hate - which was predicted. So I expect corruption to increase. I'm basically a Libertarian and a big advocate of freedom. I'm for smaller government with less interference in my private life - two big reasons why I'm against a NWO.

And dude what make you think aliens care about what humans express themselves as, what makes you even think that they have big governing body's that they are part of. If your self sustainable and could travel millions of years through time/space then big lumbering central powers are a hindrance more then a help in space I would think it's more like a big unified tribe/factions then government. Governments are only for necessity, and for staying in one place for long periods of time ie planets. And as for aliens being impressed by humans who have a habit of saying they represent the whole planet, most humans aren't that stupid why would aliens be, a monkey in a suit and a fancy hat, is still a monkey.

Don't get me wrong it could be done to the benefit of more populations, but let's just say I don't think they are strong, smart, or dedicated enough to do such a thing.
