Greer doesn't refer to them as creatures in his article...here is a quote:

"Through all of this, we have only found ET people who want to understand and help us. They are waiting for us to join them in space - as a people at peace. Then and only then will we find the arms of the Cosmos wide open, ready to embrace a peaceful and enlightened humanity, which will then travel freely among the stars."


It also sound very hopeful.
