Baptising aliens

[Ksa]

Not that aliens would be stupid enough to get baptised by Catholics or anything.

We do not know that for certain. Other intelligent life in the universe may not be so intelligent. The fact that we have not seen them yet may not be a favor in their intelligence so much as in their underdevelopment. We have this notion that aliens are supposed to be technologically advanced geniuses, and I would not be surprised if the stereotype is just that.

For an advanced alien species to get to us it would require both capability and motive, and they may not have either one. We know that the fastest you can travel is the speed of light, and if they are a million light years away, they will never make it here in our lifetime. Also, because of what would happen if you hit anything at that speed, traveling at the speed of light would be a stupid thing to do.
