Jupiter IS THE GREAT PROTECTOR EATING SO MANY ASTEROIDS AND COMETS THAT DON'T GET PAST JUPITER. IS LITERALLY PROTECTING US WITH ITS HUGE GRAVITY PULL. I THINK BRENTFAVREVIKING ABOVE IS AN IDIOT. JUST SAYING.
I mean technically Jupiter and the Sun are the reason we don't have a planet/planets where the big asteroid belt is now. The gravity between the two is too strong.
Or... it was a planet, long ago. And it housed an advanced civilization that knew its demise was imminent. They sent a single son to a planet called Earth.

I mean... Just because they could survive something different than us doesn't automatically make them scary or a threat to us.
They could be our protectors, for all we know.
