    What would be your reaction if you were told by governments leaders we ain't alone in the universe and that we have been visited and studied for many milenium and that our military capabilities are regularly reviewed/assessed and finally that those visitors intentions are unknown.

    This is a genuine question, so just imagine this is real and try to explain what would you do or think.

    I don't know mate, up to you. What do you think you would do in your life, straight away. Would you change anything?

    Some are saying Chaos would rise on earth and that societies will collapse.

    Yes but your leader just announced on TV and radio, worldwide, that they are here.
    So, you would have no choice to admit they are.

    Seriously, even if we're not alone, if some type of alien lived somewhere around the nearest possible star that may have a planetary system, assume he can travel at the speed of light ( which will really mess up things) it would take said being tens of thousands of light years to get here so why would they bother.

    I'd be glad that there's intelligent life somewhere in the universe. (including us, obviously :) )

    Wouldn't mind personally.

    Religious nutcases people on the other hand will probably turn inside out at the revelation.

    Let say time does not matter since they can warp it.

    So they would be fully able to travel billion of light years in a blink of an eye.

    Which possibly means travelling in another dimension.;)
    Time being our 4th dimension, so it would require a higher dimension to transverse it.
    If it happened, i would probably ask whoever i met, how the **** do i get back?

    So dinosaurs evolved on your planet and mammals are extinct? Cool.

    light years are not a measurement of time, go find a real problem or document the one you have properly...

    I'd waltz on over to the Creationist crowd and laugh.
    Then I'd become a scientologist.
