Subject says it, let's discuss alien psychologies. Philosophy versus alien psychology will likely pop up time to time, so I'll start off with it. Is it right to pity someone that is physically incapable of feeling the emotion of love? If one cannot love, should you Pity them?
-
it all depends on your view of love. wether or not youve been scorned or cherished has a huge impact on what you consider it to be about.
-
Indeed it does, so the question comes from the love cherishing side. If you love to lOve and be loved, would you pity one incapable of love that isn't necessarily evil?
-
Well first the way you stated it, you make it seem like you just love everyone because you can, "you love to love", I think the way you are trying to state this is "you love that you love some one", other wise it changes the meaning. Not trying to flame, I just prefer to clarify before I post ^^
-
The you love someone version. If you enjoy loving someone and being loved by someone, then, shoudl you pity someone physically incapable of the emotion love? As in, they cannot love no matter how hard they try. SHould they be pitied? I hope htat's the final clarification needed XD
-
Yes, I say it is a sad feeling not to have, "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all", sorry I don't know who the quote is by, but the quote holds true to its own.
-
(Now were getting somewhere :D)
However, can you pity those who can never know what they're missing? And how could you communicate the idea of love?
-
As another famous person once said who yet again I forget there name, and some of what they said XD, "Ignorance is bliss"
-
Well then, I guess that answers that, sort of. Next topic!
-
Awaits next topic
-
Alien instincts could be a topic
-
i think, they exist, they saw us, we look dum, they won't come back :P
-
Hears my favorite quote " we all make choice but in the end our choice make us " do u agree with this if u do or don't then y ? ... I do
The rsion y i do is becuse in the end after all is said and done the choice we chose so make us, it can be for the best or worse.

These are both off topic. This discussion is about how aliens would think, like instincts, emotions, math, reproductive thinking (DON'T GO TOO FAR), battle tactics and strategies, and other things of that vein.
How about we discuss alien math? For instance, I highly doubt aliens will use a 10 based system, and will prime numbers be communicable with them?

Well, if they do exsist for there battle tactices they wouldn't have to come here to destroy us ..... at the rate man kind is going at we will destroy our self's.... now as for breading why would they want to have a hybrid with us... if they can come here they are the intelligent race and most likely they wouldn't need us for a hybrid. if they are out there a good way in my opinion the show that they come in piece would be to help with the worlds problems ( ie reverse the damage we are doing to the earth ) with there technology they could possible do this)
-
You seem a bit anthrocentric. (Human centered.) I'm talking aliens on their own, like what tactics would they use? Would honor be involved with these or not? When I said breeding stuff, I never said anything had to do with half human hybrids. Its Alien A breeding with Alien A, nothing to do with hybrids. If aliens came here, would they even bother with our atmosphere?
No, this is all about aliens ONLY. Humans do not venture into this unless we get into first contact, which is by the way a great topic.
WHen we meet aliens for the first time, how will we communicate? How will we get info across to them for the first time, and say a universal "Hello?"
-
well if they where to comuncate with us or us with them message could misinterpreted what could mean peace for them could mean war for us or vise vrsa
-
Yes, but that is unlikely. How do you communicate with them then? Some people say using math as a way to communicate could work, but would it?
-
yes and no it all depends for example we use the number 3 and the word three both stand for the same thing but if they use different syimpose for there numbers they might no know what it is or it could mean something completely different then what we use it for
-
not like that, but by using prime numbers as an indicator of intelligence. By typing our prime numbers, which are believed to happen to incoherently to naturally form a sequence of primes, scientists believe they can communicate math that way. However, will they be able to understand the primes? Will primes even be known or cared about in aliens society?
-
hard to say but even if they are out there the next glaxciy is 2 million light yrs a way so even if they do communicate do you think they can make it here for us to see them ?

But they don't even have to come form another galaxy, and this isn't about the travel problems. It is as it is, so forget any other possible complications that don't relate to an alien way of thought. So, how about a few situations of a response to first contact? What will the alien do now that it is on our world and sufficiently protected by an environment suit?

all depends if they come in peace or are hostal if they come in peace then they might try to explorer part of the earth where there are no humans so they can see what our life forums look like compared to theirs
-
Well, would not the humans be the most interesting and readily available for study?

yes but imagen the caose that would cause if u see an alien walking down the street and it might not end good for that alien
