If we were to an alien species, which of these options would you prefer?
- For them to be more intelligent/advanced than humans
- Or for them to be less intelligent or advanced
If we were to an alien species, which of these options would you prefer?

I would try to choose the option with least risk of hostility, the less advanced option could possibly be envious of technology and want to take it forcefully... But if we were to get into a fight with more advance 'aliens' they would most certainly win
It ill end up being some bacteria or something at first anyway. That will be the first 'alien' we meet/discover.
It's impossible to answer really
Sorry
OK - less
If it were 'more' it would surely end in war and destruction
We have a desire to destroy what we can't own ... kinda thingy

But they may be quite benevolent, maybe having watched us for a while they may wish to help us overcome a few world issues. They may even see us as allies in the universe, a bit like Vulcans in Star Trek.

I find it quite interesting that the posts so far are mainly concerned with being 'conquered' or 'conquering' to some extent.
I wonder if Hollywood has had an influence in peoples mind set.
I do think it may have something to do with Hollywood but ultimately isn't it mere human nature to first and foremost ensure the survival of the next generation?
It will end up being a carbon based single celled nothing if we're honest

Yes, I do .....I can't believe that in the whole , vast universe that we are the only life form
