Aliens Intelligent?

[runlikehell]

Why do ufo's have light's on them? Aliens are supposed to be so intelligent, and technologically advanced, but they cant land a craft without lights? And crash them from time to time, It dosent seem very intelegent to me, and shows us, no matter how advanced they are they are they obviously make mistakes.

When I first heard of UFOs crashing, it actually gave me a sense of understanding that even though other races might be more advanced than us, they are not perfect. I realize that they likely a lot like us in the at they are still learning and evolving, solving problems, and improving on old ideas. it's actually a cool feeling to think that they are not anywhere close to being gods and that we ourselves can get to their level one day and still continue to advance.

As for why the crafts have lights on them, I would guess that's it's fr=or the same reason our aircraft, and of course the scape shuttle, have lights on them. One reason being that even though you have the technology to fly by radar and things like that, you still don't want to be a hazard to other vehicles who cannot see you coming.

another point about the lights... I have often thought that sometimes those crafts are actually trying to be seen by us.

I tend to agree, to a point. I really do believe that most "ufos" we see are in fact man made drones/advanced air craft. Especially the ones with the strobe multi-colored lights etc. That said though, the glowing, weird, shape shifty ones probably are the real thing.... /shrug who knows

But then, the reverse to the obvious could be true. A for-real alien ufo could be camouflaged to look like almost anything with advanced technology. Including a Christmas tree ornament or even a Cessna single engine.

Take a look at this video with a small plane in it. It operates outside the physics in which it was designed it seems. I believe the video to be true and untouched simply because of the video time clock (no jumps in the seconds etc) and the commentary. Watch all the way through.

I also tend to think that "crash" landings would simply not be in the equation for alien species thousands, if not millions of years more advanced than us, whether they come from space or "inner" earth including the deep sea.
