Initial Curiosity

The above pic for this topic is somewhat of the topic announcement. Aliens, and that which is related (UFOs primarily) have appeared in this group before in one way or another. Whether it's the topic as well as title I was given "The Alien Question: Fact, Fiction, or Indoctrination?" or it's prior concepts either tied to or in proximity we've talked about to some extent. Now, the following happens to be directly linked to my named example from the quotes. Which will include a literal link to a podcast: It's from the YouTube channel The Diary of a CEO and it's actually titled "UFO Roundtable: CIA Physicist Proves Aliens Exist." Link here:

Since this episode is almost 1.5 hours, the intent is for this topic and topic description to appear in this group well before the conversation calendar date (for September 5th, as it turns out). That allows those who are willing enough time to watch this episode to the extent they prefer and have the chance to prepare for how I frame this conversation to go. The format:

Whether you think this alien claim is valid, questionable or invalid, consider:

--What would have to be true (or IF it's been proven) in order for the idea of aliens existing to be verified?

-- Would you be able to think of a convincing viewpoint that isn't quite your own perspective or is just distinct from your own perspective on aliens (opposite or otherwise)?

-- What's something convincing to you about your own viewpoint on aliens existing you think others may overlook?

-- What's something that's interesting, meaning more or less unexpected or thought-provoking, about your own perspective on the existence of aliens?

⬆️ I'd like to use these questions as the basis of the conversation around "UFO Roundtable: CIA Physicist Proves Aliens Exist." Then, IF we have time as well as IF majority or all present agree that aliens (yes intelligent extraterrestrials) exist, I have one more question (for now). My question is:

-- What are the implications of this being true?

the plan is for an attendee to pick a topic for today prior to the meeting. A topic within the view of (meaning not necessarily exclusive to) philosophy, spirituality, music or political. It can even be a topic related to/similar to one I’ve previously posted. If no topic is selected prior, we can talk at the beginning and I'll choose one the day of (whether it's my own or someone else's).
