We will go into a world wide pamdemic if it is life as we think, if it is microscopic life, no one will even know that we did.

Any life we find on Mars will most likely be microscopic. You know, bacteria and the like.

We will be doomed when it decides that the Earth must go because it obstructs their view of Venus.

Where is the Kaboom? there is supose to be an earth shattering kaboom.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

A pandemic is a world-wide spread of a disease, not something that can be caused by noticing aliens and certainly not something related to Orson Welles broadcast of H.G. Wells War of the Worlds.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

The rules for starting threads are posted at the top of the forum. You should at least include a topic for discussion and your own opinion. The cartoon alone was not sufficient.

Which led to a pandemic?

War of the Worlds is a book written by HG Wells. It starts out by a martian attack on Trentoon NJ. It then progresses t the entire country. Turned out it was only a hoax. People legittimentlly thought it was the end of the world.

That's Orson Welles' adaptation. HG Wells' novel is set in late Victorian England.

Yes, I know what the book is. What I am wondering is how discovering an alien species leads to a pandemic.

We know. We also know what a 'pandemic' is. You...uh...might want to look that word up.

Oh simple. Most people think that there is intelligent life somewhere else. But the other 30% or so do not will go into a pandemic that causes mass looting and other crimes. People cannot accept that there is life on other planets.
