"ET Go Home" may very well be our cries for salvation ...

Seldom does Mediawingnuts announce an upcoming Discovery Channel special, but this one may be VERY special!

British astrophysicist Stephen Hawking says aliens are out there, but it could be too dangerous for humans to interact with extraterrestrial life.

Hawking claims in a documentary that will be shown in Britain next month--and in the US a little later (hopefully)--intelligent alien lifeforms almost certainly exist, but warns that communicating with them could be "too risky."

The 68 year-old scientist says a visit by extraterrestrials to Earth would be like Christopher Columbus arriving in the Americas, "which didn't turn out very well for the Native Americans."

Note: We humanoid inhabitants of planet earth are the equivalent of the "Native Americans" referred to by Dr. Hawking.

He (Dr. Hawking) speculates most extraterrestrial life will be similar to microbes, or small animals - but adds advanced lifeforms may be "nomads, looking to conquer and colonise."

I, for at least one, will be looking forward to this (likely extraordinary) Discovery Channel special presentation. Maybe that was what the Rev. Billy Graham and our Presibent were praying about this morning. No doubt, the president was given a special viewing of the Stephen Hawking interview.
