So, I've been watching the ABC show "V." It seems like a theme where we fantasize that, if aliens did exist, they would have to be different from humans in a very significant way. Namely, we like to think that they would be emotionless. Does anyone remember Q from Star Trek? His biggest detriment when interacting with humans was ... you guessed it ... no emotions. On V, they know that their kind is becoming part of the "resistance" when they begin to show human emotion.
As human beings, we seem to both fear and exalt emotion. It's what makes us who we are. It can be our biggest strength or our biggest weakness.
