¿Question #1346?
ejmowrer: Assuming that there is other intelligent, spacefaring life out there... are they hostile?

ocdspectrum: They have the capability to be.
PolarDad: probably not. probably kind of nerdy.
BOBBYCAN: Yes. All of them.
arkibet: some are
Woelf: Some of them certainly will be, some will not be.
the manatee: No. War/invasion on that scale just doesn't make any sense.
Barfal: If they operate under a self preservation imperative, they better kill us before we kill them first.
Zamomin: I guess after looking at our history any alien species would hate us...
Phil Fleischmann: No. They like you, but they're waiting for you to make the first move.
Randy Cox: Some surely will be.
daveroswell: some are, some aren't kinda like us
Stormparkiet: We'd probably be much too backwards technologically to be a threat to them. So, they wouldn't care about us.
The Unbeliever: 42
Nikku: When they meet us, they will be.
Geosmores: some
Avron: Probably not.
DHEK: They could be.
TheArchAngel: some would be
Elf__Man: probably
onky: Of course.
citizengeek: Yes, we are.
diehard4life: What does it matter? They would say we are.
thirtyseven: Did you knock over their pieces? Again?!
Redbeardin84: We'll know sooner or later, i suppose.
KentuckyKid: No. They just want to get along.
cowdog: Not until they get to know us.
scriptorum: Some are, some aren't.
Intrepid: of course, how could all of those movies, games, books, be wrong?
dmomo: Sure.
Urhixidur: Well, let's just say we wouldn't be their first priority.
ThatFalafelGirl: probably some yes, probably some no
nibuen: maybe
Cromaa: Probably...we are.
Dorque: Nope. Indifferent maybe, and that would have the same effect as they destroyed our planet for an overpass.
CMOT Dibbler: Yes, because we (humanity) define ourselves the same way...and some of us are definately hostile.
FrozenHoHos: Yes...yes we are.
Big Bad Lex: Lets hope so
clesiemo3: no
Helenoftroy: No but we are
javelin98: I hope so. Otherwise, my homemade chemical laser will go to complete waste.
jasta6: If we are any indicator, most defiantly.........................
Kazin: Lets hope so. otherwise, earth will probably wipe them out..
Dr.Octopus: Probably they would be hostile to the idea of intelligent forms of life on the Earth.
bekudno: I would think some are, some aren't, and some the word wouldn't apply to at all.
Mig_: If they are more intelligent, and technical more advanced than we are probably not.
_Kael_: No. Cause... I don't know
Loquutus: A much better question: Are they sexually compatible with us?
flyinghogfish: Hopefully not
ZombyDawg: Why wouldn't they be.
POvidiusNaso: No way.
Karlsen: It depends if they watch the news
Numskull: Considering who's in control of the Earth's most powerful nation, they certainly ought to be.
notquitekarpov: if able to contact us, statistically highly unlikely - read it up
chockle: maybe
ssmooth: Won't know until they find us
dietevil: depends on if they see us as a threat
shotokanguy: Probably no more than we are.
bluebehir: Some of them are.
kimapesan: To us? If they're at all intelligent, they should be.
skrutsch: No more than we are.
xlorp: Have we been breathing their air?
Lord_Prussian: Yes
2amp: no
snoozefest: no
erli: No just ugly
Jern: Of course, aren't we?
heli: better to ask: are we hostile?
AWildEep: Of course
dakarp: I'm sure some, some aren't, and none are likely to make it here.
toulouse: no
Bearcat89: Why not? We are.
Windopaene: Some of them are, some of them aren't
djlg: Probably.
Wintergoblin: possibly
mrbeankc: Some are, some aren't. Depends on who gets here first.
darquil: Not all of them.
hibikir: Yes
Fa�l: Knowing our own hostility, I would advise them to be hostile
Komodo: They should be.
PopeBrain: yes
darthcliff: Invariably.
kennyb: most likely
djarv: I hope so.
AlorielLelyn: Someone might be.
Belash: yes and no... sort of like the people on earth
gnomehome: How am I supposed to know ?
puffinge: no way
BobDodgerBlue: If there are more than 1, some are hostile
Flyspeck23: I hope so.
P.O.G.G.: They keep abducting me against my will, so I'd say hostile
djflippy: We are. I don't know about them.
melissa: I sure as anything hope not!
buergerberatung: yep
WasQ: and not only....
louiseh: I doubt it. Can't see why they would be. Plenty of planets out there without wanting ours.
GuyHill: lets not judge too soon
jttm: Probably
fsumarc: some probably are. just like us.
skelebone: Some of them are.
viogression: It's all a matter of perspective. Perhaps their version of a cheerful, peaceful greeting is to nuke the planet.
ynnen: Nah, otherwise we'd already be toast.
Blackwind: what a dumb question
ValJor: There are all kinds of other intelligent lifeforms out there, but no one as hostile as mankind
CortexBomb: I think it's hard to conjecture. Hostility is usually caused by either fear (unlikely) or by a deep dislike of a fundamental way of thinking / doing (which is certainly possible). If they're advanced enough then apathy could be likely, as we're hardly a blip on the radar in all liklihood
CDRodeffer: Possibly.
Spielfreak: Same as we are.
chaddyboy_2000: No.
