Merged Their Return

That's an idea. It's an open question whether that will bother him though. Santa obviously has technology far in advance of us, being able to deliver presents at relativistic speeds and all, not to mention the impossible right angle turns and high g loads.

Attach a quantum diffuser to the chimney. That'll fix the **********.
 
So, is anyone at all interested in assisting me in creating an internet petition to the Olympic Committee, to add "a moment skyward" to the Opening Ceremonies of the London 2012 Olympics?

---

I could also use a little help wording the actual petition:

To the Olympic Committee:

We, the undersigned, do hereby request that "a moment skyward" be added to the Opening Ceremonies of the London 2012 Olympics, as an open invitation to the 'god(s) of the heavens'- witnessed by so many throughout the ages, to descend once again.
 
Sure...

To the Olympic Committee:

We, the undersigned, do hereby request that "a moment skyward" be added to the Opening Ceremonies of the London 2012 Olympics, as an open invitation to the 'demon(s) of the heavens'- witnessed by so many throughout the ages, to descend once again and feast on us humans.

How about "god(s) & demons", then we could have them land on a yin-yang...?

*But weren't there BOTH good & bad gods, throughout the ages?

I thought one of the most basic premises of religion was that it wasn't a good idea to demand anything of god(s) or to challenge them in any way.
The Olympics strive to be inclusive and not motivated by religious or political beliefs (not always succeeding) and if the committee agreed to your proposal, thay would probably feel duty bound to also have a singalong and hand clapping of "Cum bay Ah", a mass silent meditation for Buddha and a strict Salah for Muslims amongst catering for all the other various religions. At the end of which, everyone would no doubt be battling over who's god was the biggest and best and any Gods who were watching would despair and probably not want to get involved in any way.

Assuming there were good and bad aliens, don't you think an epic spaceship battle would most likely ruin the party? Nukes, lasers, particle weapons...

Not to mention that there's also the possibility of only the bad hungry ones descending.

And also there's the possibility that the good ones were just a fantasy from desperate humans or a meme created by the skydemons themselves to help handling their livestock.

3 to 1 odds of a bad outcome...

Well HOPEFULLY they 'get' the spirit of the Olympics, and leave the guns behind. The idea is to compete through physical 'sport', rather than intimidation through arms.

I mean, we ARE offering up our planet's precious metals as rewards...?

"Hey, run faster than our fasted human, and we'll give you something shiny."

Sounds like a good time to me...
 
Final Draft?

So here's the petition I'm about to publish:

---

To the Olympic Committee:

"We, the undersigned, do hereby request that 'a moment skyward' be added to the Opening Ceremonies of the London 2012 Olympics, as an open invitation to the 'god(s) of the heavens'- witnessed by so many throughout the ages, to descend once again."

Is it understood, completely, or does it need to be elongated? Too late, it is a done deal.

Please feel free to lend your support!

I could have written a lot more, but don't want to spoil your Olympic party, its the first time I have ever heard of a practical use for all the money being wasted
;)

One question though, if they do come down and compete, would it be fair to let those Aliens from planets with lower gravity than us to participate ?

I think that is a whole other sub-thread... That said, the "Olympics" are 'Earth Games' by definition, I don't think it matters under which conditions you trained.

Runners who train in the mountains then attend games at a sea level may well have an advantage, but we don't regulate that.

What if they make us a counteroffer?

"Hey, run faster than our laser cannons, and we'll let you keep the shiny somethings."

Olympic gold medals are not made of gold. The last time that they were was 1912.
