Alien asks you to prove humanity is worth saving

Well first of all, ask them what they think gives them the right, secondly, why waste the resources destroying a planet that couldn't return the threat, thirdly, offer up megan fox as a sacrifice.
I justify the species to no one for any reason, we are what we are, if that means we burn then we burn.
i'd ask them how soon they want to destroy our civilization
then again there is really no reason i could come up with how we could be of some use for a superior and more advanced race
my last resort would be "killing us makes more work for you then we're worth. Just wait a few decades and we've killed ourselves anyway"

I'd ask them what is it to them what happens on one planet? The amount of death and pollution is just a fraction of the amount of killing and crap they have done by going around and destroying other worlds. I assume they have since they have the technology to wipe us out in like a day. So pretty much their morals are more fucked up and twisted than ours.
I'd tell him that not everyone is worth saving. And That he should let me pick who lives and dies, considering by posing that question to me, he already kind of did. Once he was done wiping out the evil and corrupt, I'd have him kill me as well because I would be corrupt now as well. Hopefully that would teach him something about humanity.
Exactly, one thing an advanced alien would probably suffer from is physical and immunological atrophy due to technology substituting their need for strength and a strong immune system. We can already see in first world countries that the prevalence of auto-immune disorders and allergies compared to say only 50 years ago, just imagine that effect tenfold on an alien species that has become dependant on technology. They would value our comparatively superior and robust immune system as well as our physical strength due to our brief flirtation with technological advances; which would naturally make us useful to them as them for manual labour or medical research (which I suppose they could also take by force) so as to give them a reason not to destroy us out of scientific curiosity.aenimau5 said:
Who says the aliens have emotions? Who says they have senses capable of perceiving our world? Maybe they follow separate physical laws and are bound by different dimensions. Maybe they exist only as energy, or maybe they are so weak and frail that they have to prove to US that THEY should live.
Do they have to kill us all? Surely they could just pick out the obvious scurge to Humanity, publically obliterate them and use it as a warning against being dickish. I'd probably just tell them to stay away for a good while longer, while we develop more. You don't punch an infant when it's in the "mine" phase do you?
