Dilemma #1 - All People Would Have
to Welcome Them
It's not enough to be welcomed by just a fraction of the World
Population.
All individuals on Earth would have
to accept their presence. Anyone apprehensive toward the arrival
of an ET would most certainly consider the visit an "invasion."
The feelings could range anywhere
from a threat to someone's "status quo" to a very genuine and
passionate concern for all life on the planet. This presents a
most perplexing problem for any highly advanced and (benevolent)
life form.
They, presumably, would not want to
offend, interfere with or frighten any Human that calls Earth
his or her home.
Dilemma #2 - Messiah Complex
This is of grave concern to an ET.
The propensity for Humans to
"surrender their authority" and feel "inferior" to a more
technologically advanced entity poses a major challenge to an ET
presence.
They do not see technological
achievement in the same way Humans do. In fact, they are quite
fascinated by us and consider Humans "ultra" advanced entities
in their own right, technology notwithstanding.
But still many will bow and worship
to
their "new messiah" and this
would surely be a source of much discomfort to the visitors.
Dilemma #3 - Misrepresentations in
Film and Television
ET's are frequently portrayed as the "evil invaders."
This distorted stereotype is firmly
entrenched in the minds of the masses. With suspicion deeply
etched in our psyches, we would feel hard-pressed in welcoming
any visitors with open arms - let alone open minds.
Thanks to Hollywood in helping to
hone the "suspicious" nature in Humans, we will harbor doubt,
confusion and resistance toward the visitors. Some will argue
that this is a healthy position to take and that we should not
let down our guard. I submit that any modicum of logic applied
to this argument would soon negate it.
Such visitors could easily wreak
major havoc on Earth with or without our blessing if that was
indeed their intent. We have not seen (nor will we see) any
attack of this nature.
Dilemma #4 - Humans are Hypocrites
Humans would most certainly question the intent of any ET
visitation as possibly hostile or dangerous - and yet this comes
from a species that has maintained wars generation after
generation, destroying their own kind in reckless and
vicious
assaults for the purpose of power, control and dominance.
It's not that Humans are inherently
bad or evil - nothing could be farther from the truth. Humans are
among the most peaceful and loving of all creatures. We are,
however, a race that is constantly teetering in and out of our
natural balance.
And though there are reasons why
we've become this way, how would you expect ET to react to such
a powerful, complex and conflicting entity?
Dilemma #5 - Religious and Teaching
Institutions
Humans often have trouble thinking on their own, not because
they can't - but because they have been repeatedly conditioned
not to.
They have surrendered much of their
independent thought, individual perspectives, in order to fit
within templates of compliance, conformity and submission to the
instruments of programming and authority.
The bias and inflexibility in
thinking is part of an ongoing process and has led to our
collective undoing.
Humans submit wholeheartedly to religious
and teaching intuitions to guide and direct them through life.
Here we find "truth" commingled with agenda-driven rhetoric.
Delineating truth from agenda is a
daunting task for the unaware Human where "truths" are often
promoted as conditional, i.e.,
"if you believe (this) then you
must therefore believe in (that)."
Since culture generally rewards
those who eagerly participate in these thought-controlling
organizations, the efficacy of such institutions are further
cemented in place, validating their importance in the minds of
the masses.
It's important for Humans to remain
aware of the many subtle distinctions that exist and how our
"point of attention" has been controlled and harvested. The ET
is particularly fond of the Human aspect that has remained
unadulterated, alive, full of spirit and independent in thought.
We can learn much from our greatest
teachers - our children.
Dilemma #6 - Money as an
Institution
Humans will fight, destroy, lie, cheat, swindle and manipulate
all
in the name of money.
But what is money? The ET is baffled
by this.
Money is literally worshiped by some Humans and yet it
holds no real power. It's an artificial construct, an illusion
manifesting in the form of a paper bill or plastic card. Beyond
that it's simply not real.
We make it real though, do we not?
Practitioners of dark magic understand this "illusion" all too
well and consider, for instance,
the "dollar bill" as a type of
talisman or sigil. Money has created damaging morality gaps in
the Human condition, thus lowering our "vibration" on a
collective level.
Though world societies are built
around monetary systems, there is much inequity in this design.
This must be changed for ET to make
direct contact.
Dilemma #7 - Humans Subordinate to
Inferior "Leaders"
Humans do not usually elect people of high morality and virtue
into key positions of their government.
Instead, they
elect people of
questionable ethics, compromised integrity and sometimes even
invite downright scumbags to hold critically important positions
in office.
The ET would be required to deal
with this unsavory lot to convey their message to the world.
They would be forced to comply with certain terms and agreements
made in secrecy. This is not the conduit they are seeking.
Another very real dilemma to say the
least.
Dilemma #8 - We've Already Been
Invaded
Here's a point worthy of consideration. We've been attacked by
our own devices.
We have cultivated a world based on
fear and anger under the auspice of an enlightened society. We
have created numerous problems where before none had existed. We
remain divided in the name of race, religion, ethnicity and
class… and in many more ways beyond this.
We
continue to wage war or are told
to expect engagement at any time. We no longer have a clear
sense of "normal." We've taken insane ideas and notions and made
them somehow acceptable.
We've already been invaded -
question is, will Humans ever see it that way?
