Maybe if there is other entities out there, maybe what they do is observe, they watch us, our progression and our destruction, much like we observe the animal kingdom by whatever means we have available to us. But lets face it, what do you think would be the likely scenario if ever other beings thought to present themselves to us, I personally believe the movie industry has demonstrated a firm grasp of that prospect, for we will meet them with a show of force, which is common to humanity. A common event that has been displayed through history, it is us, we must show force rather than openess. because we still cling to all notions of the past, thus proving we have not really evolved as people, only our technology has evolved and much of that even derivitives of war related science. If indeed we are being watched by others, then sure they will understand we are not all the same, but those that wield power on Earth have access to terrible weaponry which they will use if it is any intention is even slightly misunderstood, their people in the way does not matter, for the threat must be controlled to make the controllers feel comfortable. Maybe it is the true advocates for this planet are the unpowerful, for they have access to nothing but themselves, so can speak with honesty, whereas, we all know the leaders often speak with forked tongues even to their own people. Power corrupts and it takes a very rare human to avoid it's influence, maybe it is those that observe know us better than we know ourselves, for it is human to forget until the next time.
