let's say a meeting was taking place in our solar system with many different species of alien...
being honest now, when they go round the table and we have to introduce ourselves... would you be a little ashamed to say, "human"

Originally posted by eatmybishopI read a great SF book in which there was very simple antigravity technology that almost every race in the universe discovered in the Renaissance, but humans did not. What happens is a Renaissance technology galactic empire invades the Earth with muskets. They know our technology must be weak because we don't have antigravity, but in fact we just happened not to figure out that trick and so we invested our energy into further invention instead of galactic exploration.

We took out their flying saucers with guided missiles in the story I think, and cut down their musket line with automatic fire...pretty funny story.
Originally posted by eatmybishopNot at all. I'd "say it loud, I'm human and Proud!"

Originally posted by eatmybishopI think that if you were wise enough to be invited to go to the meeting of super-advanced space-aliens, I think they would be prepared to overlook the shortcomings of the majority of our species.

But... why would they want a human at their meeting anyway? We can barely make it to Mars let-alone out of the solar system... we kill each other, are racist bigots, don't respect our own planet and are not a unified species... it makes no sense for a human to even be at the meeting because we have no Earth representative who can attend and speak for humanity... unless of-course, the Human is not from Earth!!! 😲
