If we ever were to discover and communicate with a nearby intelligent alien
species there would be huge effects on human society (at least until the
next season of Big Brother.)

One thing we can be sure of, our local god botherers will immediately fund
the construction of a very large radio transmitter which they will use to
beam their bible to the poor unfortunate recipients. If that doesn't
convert the alien heathens, the mormons will surely pay them a visit :-)
