    FEAR IS NOT A RATIONAL SUBSTITUTE FOR REASONING, I SAW THAT MOVIE IN 1956,IT WAS THOUGHT PROVOKING THEN, AND IT STILL IS TODAY, I BELIEVE THERE'S LIFE ON OTHER, THEY DON'T WANT TO INTERACT WITH THE BARBARIANS ON THIS PLANET, I DO BELIEVE THEY OBSERVING WHAT HAPPENS HERE, THERE'S NO RATIONAL REASON TO INTERACT WITH BARBARIANS WHO ARE CONSISTENTLY TRYING TO DESTROY EACH OTHER, THEY ARE PROBABLY ARE ALOT MORE ADVANCED WITH TECHNOLOGY, THIS PLANET IS FULL OF BARBARIANS WHO ARE OUT TO DESTROY WHAT THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND, FEAR AND VIOLENCE ARE CURES FOR NOTHING.
