Do you think people, in this day and age, would look upon aliens from outer space coming down to earth as a POSITIVE thing?

Asked by Quagmire (2088points) August 19th, 2009

Another question prompted me to think about this. In the 50’s, the “UFO Experts” claimed aliens WERE landing on earth and the government knew about it and covered it up. The cover up, these “experts” claimed, was so that the population would not panic in fear.

But we’ve come a long way since then. Do you think that if people TODAY knew that aliens were landing on earth they would panic for the most part? Or would they welcome it? Say we’re talking about people in the United States.

Let’s assume it was ONE spaceship with ONE alien landing somewhere in the U.S. (Heck! If 1000 ships were landing, I think it’s time to panic!).
