you shouldn't insult people just because they have a different opinion though, but if you want to talk about education, there are mathematical formula that statistically indicate the likelyhood of extraterestrial beings existing is near 1.

s/f on the approach. It seems logical that if they have the ascension to this level of being, they would have absolutely no problems with harming us in ways we probably wouldn't even understand until it was far too late and about over.
I think that may be why we're also still sitting here debating their existence at all. They recognize our seeming need to define everything in terms of threat or it's ability to be used to our own specific gains. Perhaps they are waiting to see if we can just move beyond that serious fixation before going any further with contact. Not for fear of what we'd do to them (yeah..that's almost funny) but how many of our own kind we'd hurt in trying.
We watched ...as they surely did...what happened after 9/11. What would our same Governments do with a "proven threat" from inter-dimensional sources? Yeah..I can see why they don't take out a P.S.A. to say hello, but I also don't feel we have anything to fear from those existing on levels above us....we have a lot to learn from them.
I think it would be better if you started with some definitions, as definitions of "extra-dimensional beings", "etheric bodies" and "higher consciousness levels" may have different meanings to different people, and some people may not even know what you're talking about.

Lets start of by saying that we would assume that an 'extra dimensional being' would either have left its physical body and is using its etheric body or they are able to ascend at free will.
Why? What makes an extra dimensional being automatically at a higher consciousness level (whatever that may mean)?
This being is obviously at a higher consciousness level than ourselves.
I do not even understand what you mean.
That means we are not able to comprehend how they think/act even if we spent out life trying.
Why?
With that being said a higher consciousness level does not consist of ego ergo the root of 'evil' is gone, I believe so anyway.
Why not?
With all this being said, I'm confused as to why anybody believes that somebody of a higher LoC that ourselves would have bad intentions.
How do you know? And how do you know that their intentions do not collide with our well being?
The argument "Good intentions may be bad for us" is not applicable here as these beings will have already taken this into account.
If you think that people with a different opinion about something that has yet to be proved means that they are naive or 'uneducated', does that mean that you are a lower level of conciousness than the people that accept other people's ideas without calling them any names?
PS.
If you think 'Alienyunz' do not exist, then you're naive and 'uneducated.'
The you shouldn't have written it, anything you write can (and probably will) be commented about. As you do not defined "education", I guess all other people will interpret your words in their own way.
Please do not comment about the 'uneducated' part as what I see education as and what you see education as will most likely be completely different.
Actually I think that's the answer to the thread.

What do you think about the theory that the 'invasion' will happen resulting in a world wide allegiance fighting against the 'invaders,' so that in time we have a one world government?, I'm curious.

Here are some LoC references, all calibrated from hawkins at the time of their death.
Disclaimer: Some individual suffered of mental illness or difficulties at the end of their life, hence having a toll on their LoC.

No matter what we speculate about the good, evil or neutral intentions of other beings, until we actually meet one, or otherwise learn something about them, we could spend the rest of our lives speculating and be completely wrong. Some people may speculate they are benevolent, but they might be wrong. Some people might speculate that they are evil, but they could be wrong. They could be completely indifferent to us or not even care about us. Any or all of the above are possible but the only basis we have for speculation is our own biased perspective and the aliens may be alien in more ways than just being from a different planet. Their entire culture and way of thinking might be something we don't understand.
Do we even understand how dolphins think? They're right here on Earth and we think they're somewhat intelligent but we can't communicate with them too well and therefore I'm not sure we really understand them. If the aliens are from another planet, it will probably be that much harder than communicating with dolphins from our own planet.
To Talk With Aliens, Learn to Speak With Dolphins
Even if all aliens are benevolent, I still think it's wise to use caution and assume they COULD be hostile, and not intentionally invite them here prematurely, which means not sending out too many signals like these:

Hawking advises against drawing too much attention to ourselves, and for now, I think he's right. Maybe when we are more advanced it will be less risky.
