If we ever found intelligent aliens, some of us would absolutely try to convert them to christianity, and there are already plans to exploit planetoids for their resources. We are the alien invaders, sans space travel.

At the very least we'd feel less need to leave our current planet.

Think of it other way around, its due to people like them that we want to leave the planet early
