Area 51 Exists!

The government has admitted that there is such a place as Area 51.  They didn’t even address the question of the alleged dead alien body.  Not that you would expect them to.  They are the government.  If there had been a dead alien body at Area 51 (which  would have been moved to Area 52 long ago), they would lie about it.

I don’t know why that is.  You would think the knowledge of intelligent extraterrestrials would be an authoritarian’s dream.  Something to keep the populace terrified, something they would give anything to be defended against.  The aliens could be the god-figures in a scientific world or just the ultimate enemy, the hyper-intelligent species at the gate.

Area 51's Most Famous Resident

Area 51’s Most Famous Resident

As much as Americans fear Muslims, imagine their terror when faced with 3 fingered, 4 eyed, screaming reptiles who are advanced enough to cross space.

But still they would lie.

Perhaps out of habit, perhaps out of fear that once news of intelligent extraterrestrials gets out, people would (quite reasonably) begin to doubt our leaders ability to defend us at all.  Many would panic and riot in the streets or drink themselves delirious or leap from tall buildings, others would flock to heavily armed survivalist communes in Idaho, and a few might say  “Hey, no 3 fingered, 4 eyed, screaming reptile ever called me nigger” or “No 3 fingered, 4 eyed, screaming reptile ever foreclosed on my home/stole my password/cut me off in traffic, or whatever”  and figure if they’re going to turn collaborator, might as well turn collaborator early.

So, I don’t really believe the Dead Alien at Area 51 story, because the probable motive swings too far the other way, and just because they WOULD lie doesn’t mean they had any reason to.

I do believe that there are other intelligent species in the universe, though.  And someday we will find them.
