Alien Missionary
Imagine if there is a Alien Civilization (Trademark, well meh...) wouldn't their missionaries with a their version of halfwit religion turn up first? would it be possible to discern what they might believe? maybe a list of five or six things that would definitely stick out? maybe we could figure what aliens believe and find they are indeed here hiding in our very midst waiting for the slower less adventurous trader/dominion empire contingent to turn up. Surely only the most dumb of dumb, no fear of death by dissection or gunfire alien would be here right now? i.e. a religious missionary sort?
What will the world be like after its ruler is removed?

It's already happened. His name was baby Jesus.

He's now the patron saint of wine and cheese parties.

Don't forget the fish-n-chips thing.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Re: Alien Missionary
I see no reason why we have to assume that an alien intelligence has to be as plain downright stoooopid as we are!

Re: Alien Missionary
I think the Halo video game series covers this. The Covenant race(s?) are fanatics about their own weird religion, but they're not so kind as to test Earth's waters with missionaries first. So they send warships to kick our infidel butts. But a human Master Chief shoots his way to victory.

What if highly advanced aliens arrived, who worshipped the chicken?
We'd be well and truly fucked. They might end up breeding us, to feed to chickens.

Of course Christians will be furious when they realise they've backed the wrong horse.

If conversion means that I get to ride on their spaceship or death, then call me a Xwracksist.
I don't care if other people call me "traitor". I'll be traversing galaxies where the word will become fucking meaningless.
