Hopefully we find an extraterrestrial signals in the near future. I really hope god-like extraterrestrials exists, but I do admit it is just my wishful thinking.

What if they are like us, only with technology and in particular weaponry we can't match?
And by 'like us' I don't just mean being bilaterally symmetrical bipeds with four limbs. I mean 'like us' in the sense of how we deal with groups much less powerful than ourselves.
I think we have enough problems between ourselves, without bringing in unpredictable aliens.

That's the problem with this supernatural stuff, it doesn't really solve anything. It's a placeholder for ignorance.

It would be worse if they were "like us" but they were noticeably dumber thus mocking us with their existence.
