Would you hope to be around if we were to finally make contact with an extraterrestrial civilization?

I don't know when we'll discover a planet with aliens. Some aliens will also live permanently in space. Both of them could also have cloaking devices, making it difficult to detect their presence
Some extraterrestrials can visit us ; but no one is saying WHERE they're from
Governments probably HAVE recovered certain flying crafts (and made their own) ; but not motherships
The aliens that visit Earth are MUCH more advanced than humans : it is actually EASY for them to visit. They are monitoring Earth and using the solar system
Humans are trying to find something similar or inferior to themselves - and on an actual planet -; to be stronger in space - and against certain, powerful aliens - and in case they have to leave Earth

Scary as that would be I would be like a moth before a flame. I'd have to check it out. But how do those aliens define civilization and how good would we taste to them?

Gary, it would not be awesome for you little lad it would be highly embarrassing after your crap. Interstellar flight is impossible, don't you remember? Carl Sagan said it so it must be right. Unfortunately Mr scientist, he said "impossible by rocket power" not impossible. I would have put it that Tim was meaning disclosure NG but we didn't expect you to think that far ahead. After all that sh!t from Sol, in the last ten years, she is now excited about their arrival? They won't be bringing their kids with them Sol.
As for me Tim, I have more questions to fire at them than a machine gun has bullets. Do they know anything about God? Did they have anything to do with Jesus? on earth. Have they been visiting us for hundreds of thousands of years? As I am unable to think of how their photography thousands of years in advance of our own would look, I would love to see photos of our ancestors and dinosaurs. I would have to ask how many lifeforms in our Galaxy and which do they find to be the weirdest looking. How do they manage their world? So much I would need to ask. They may even be able to tell us exactly where we go after the death of the body.
EDIT! Another thing, I would love to see pics of their own wildlife if they have any and also, have they managed to talk with other life on their planet?
EDIT! Gary, if you had half a brain, you would not need to get YOUR opinion from the web. Occams thinking was bog standard common sense. Nothing more and nothing less, nothing scientific just plain thinking from a man who didn't let life cloud his thoughts. stupid boy. what was common sense 800 years ago does not apply now. Where there is smoke, there is fire. Rubbish, not for a long time and that is why the fire brigade is not called out to discos. A thundering in the sky means thundery weather. Nope! it is probably a Jet. Think, you silly little prat. You simply find sh!t on the web and make it your own hoping someone will argue with you.
NG, going on all the td's you two have been getting lately, I think people are getting a lot wiser of you pair.

Based on the question I see we agree, there has been no extraterrestrial contact yet. I am ever hopeful, and yes I hope to be around to experience it. I imagine the alien leader will find us interesting. Extraterrestial leader to his crew. "Can you believe half these beings still believe in ghosts and psychics?" "No wonder we had to come to them."

Sometime before the 20th April would be awesome.
Edit: Poor old EG. Never could grasp Occam's Razor. Would rather argue a strawman instead...
Edit: EG if you knew anything about anything you'd know that Occam's Razor is a fundamental component of modern scientific method. It's not as if you haven't been told, and given links to read. It also been explained to you, numerous times, why just because something is old, or ancient, it doesn't make it wrong. And you should know the logical fallacy here by now. You are either willfully ignorant due to your narcissistic personality disorder, or just plain stupid, or both. Evidently both.

Yes, I would like to be around it would be very interesting. Surely extra-terrestrials can't be any more bloodthirsty or destructive than humans and we might actually learn something from them - although we would probably just fight about it. Imagine if they explained the origins of the universe and it was not to some people's liking......
