Extraterrestrials will attempt to destroy our civilisation for our planet and its resources

I want to start off by thanking pro for posting this debate. Aliens would be very unlikely to cause us harm to colonize us for several reasons. 1. The Fermi Paradox states that we should have been visited by intelligent beings already[1]. The fact we see no evidence this has occurred indicates several things about any intelligent E.T. Life that is already aware of us. A. They aren't interested in us and therefore are not hostile towards us. B. They are interested in us and observing us but only for educational purposes.which would also indicate they aren't hostile. C. They have made limited contact with Earth ( perhaps with different governments ) perhaps for technology exchanges. Since their contact was on a very limited basis we ( average people ) have no way of knowing they actually made contact. This sort of behavior would also indicate the E.T.s are not hostile. I will remind everyone that pro's argument is that E.T.s would attempt to destroy the Earth's civilization to colonize it. Any argument I make to show E.T.s would destroy the Earth without any attempt to colonize it works in my favor not my opponents. I'm okay with pro extending his argument to include destroying civilization not just for colonization purposes but also mining purposes or other similar things. 2. Miscellaneous answers to Fermi's paradox A. The wack a mole theory. Alien life forms have created a planet destroying device that looks for planets who have reached a technological singularity. Once a planet reaches this stage of evolution it becomes a threat to other intelligent life in the universe. This could explain why we haven't made contact yet as well. Any planet reaching the level of technological ability to find or communicate with us is being destroyed immediately upon doing so. Once we reach that stage of evolution the planet eating device ( lets call it galactus ) is going to kill us all[2]. Note- this scenario results in us being killed and not colonized or mined. B. Another answer to the Fermi paradox is called The Rare Earth Hypothesis [3]. This hypothesis in a nutshell explains that Earth like planets are significantly more rare then the Fermi Paradox took into account. If this is true, then it would mean that E.T.s are extremely unlikely to mine or colonize Earth if they discovered it. The extreme distance that they would have to travel would make it cheaper and therefore more likely the E.T.'s would mine lifeless planets close to home. Also with how expensive intergalactic travel is sure to be it would make it extremely expensive to colonize distant planets especially one where the inhabitants might be hostile towards them[4]. 3. Some theories unrelated to the Fermi Paradox. A. Directed panspermia[5]. This is a theory that speculates intelligent extraterrestrial life seeded life throughout the universe. If this is the case then any E.T.s that visit or become aware of us in the future are likely to be closely related to us. Contact made is likely to be with our creators and very friendly towards us. B. The simulation hypothesis [6]. This is probably the most likely scenario. This theory states that we live in a simulated universe. This has a lot more evidence then the other hypothesis [7][8][9] and is by far the most likely. If this is the scenario is true then the alien race we encounter would be the programmers of the simulation. If they communicated with us it would probably be in a way that feels supernatural to us. 4. Scenarios if the aliens are our computer programmers. A. The simulation is just for observation and our programmers won't interfere with the simulation or will interfere minimally. If this is the case then the aliens aren't hostile and we have nothing to worry about. B. The simulation is just simulating up to or until a certain event then is programmed to turn off. Something such as the achievement of a technological singularity within the simulation could use up so much memory that it would force an end to the simulation. If this occurs then for our purposes the E.T.s are hostile and pose a threat. Also, because this is just a simulation the E.T.s are unlikely to colonize and they would unlikely be able to mine the planet for precious minerals. 5. Ancient Alien Theory as postulated by Zechariah Sitchen ( and revamped slightly by me ) Not by the history channel ( though some overlap exists ). A. This theory supported by various Sumerian tablets as interpreted by Zechariah Sitchen states that aliens came to Earth from planet X. Because of the odd orbital path of planet X it comes close to Earth about once every 20,000 years. This close proximity it comes to makes it economically feasible to go to Earth. The E.T.s from planet X are known as annunaki. The Annunaki were in dire straits. Their ozone was becoming depleted and they needed to mine for a specific mineral related to Gold on Earth to fix their ozone. The conditions on Earth were harsh for the aliens, so they combined their DNA with Bigfoot DNA and created a slave race known as humans to do the mining for them. The Annunaki after getting what they needed left the Earth never to be heard from again. If this theory is true then it proves that Aliens are not hostile to us. They did mine us on one hand, but on the other hand instead of destroying civilization they created it. 6. Modern UFO and abduction phenomenon as made famous by Betty and Barney Hill [10]. It looks like if modern UFO and abduction phenomenon actually supports a friendly alien intent. The aliens seem to be going out of their way to not interrupt or harm any civilization on Earth. The aliens are just witnessed observing us and when they do abduct people the reports seem to indicate they are merely trying to understand our biology. On top of all this I have seen no reports of aliens in the modern UFO and abduction phenomenon interested in the Earth's resources. 7. Summary Most scenarios That range in likeliness to occur, be Occurring or will occur fall into one of 3 categories. A. Aliens become aware of our presence and are uninterested leaving us entirely alone. B. Aliens become aware of our presence and are interested but prefer to have minimal contact and just observe us. C. Aliens become aware of our presence feel threatened and completely destroy us without any interest in colonizing or mining the planet Earth. E.T.s are unlikely to mine or colonize Earth due to the fact they can likely get the same resources closer to home and either mining or colonizing Earth ( a potentially hostile planet) would prove troublesome and expensive.
