Post 120A. Rewrite www.voy.com/40560/

'How absolutely ridiculous, the idea of intelligent beings on another planet evolving from lower lifeforms to become able to build spaceships and go to other worlds. What childish nonsense.'

The above statement is the opinion of many. They are usually those to whom the idea of our history being something other than the accepted academic view is unthinkable, and to whom the idea of intelligent beings from other worlds is terrifying at best. For if true, then things are not what they seem and their little world comes crashing down. They refuse to even consider the very real possibility that aliens have been here, perhaps long before our creation.

These are the people who also fail to understand that the beings I spoke of in the statement above is mankind himself, for we have built spacecraft and gone to other worlds.

Let us explore the possibilities:

1. Why isn't there hard evidence of UFOs?

Hard evidence consisting of a piece of a UFO or an alien body might be difficult to come by.
We ourselves have millions of jet airliners that takeoff everyday around the world. Of those millions of flights a day very few ever end in a crash.
How many people have ever come upon a crached jet airliner? The answer to that is less than one in a million, and with millions of flights daily.

Are we to believe an E.T. would have a worse safety record than ours? If they have the same exact safety record as we ourselves do, they could make 5 flights a day over our world an into our atmosphere and only suffer one crash every 500 years. That would be 4 crashes since the birth of Jesus.
Small objects have been found such as a small electrical device that was found by a group three rockhounds in a southern California desert. The device had been encrusted in a lava flow that was estimated to have occured 300,000 years ago. It's also well known that such finds that come to light are quickly spirited away by a special branch of the U.S. Government.

2. Has there ever been a sighting of a UFO that couldn't be explained as natural of human phenomenon?

It's possible to explain anything as something else. I suppose I could explain away the sun as God's nightlight, but that doesn't make it true or real. You might see something flying at distance of a mile away. It might be an airplane, or it might be a ship from another planet. Then again, you might see a diskshaped object flying 150 feet away from you, that would be a little harder for you to dismiss. In that instance your eyewitness testimony would be very difficult to refute, so your character and credibility would be attacked instead. One must wonder what is SO threating to them that they should have to resort to this tactic.

Our government found that the trick was to be selective enough in choosing what evidence could be explained away by using a perselected set of explanations one of which could match almost any sighting, swamp gas, Mars, Northern Lights, etc.

It's a little harder to explain away many eyewitness sightings that was backed up by photos and video film of a mass sighting as the one which occured in Mexico over several months around 1991. One should note not one single newspaper or T.V. station in the U.S., that I know of, reported the sightings. It was simply ignored in hopes that it would "go away".

3. Is eyewitness testimony of UFOs reliable?

In cases of mass sightings with many witnesses, more than 65% of the eyewitness testimony matched exactly. However, there is always a small percentage of people who read more into what they see than is actually there.
But the sighting of a daylight disk shaped object which is totally silent and moves faster than a jet and at angles that would kill a human pilot, what other explanation can there be?

4. Shouldn't we be able to pick up their signals with our sophisticated listing devices designed to pick up radio waves?

Perhaps they are using a method of communication which we won't discover for another 1000 years yet. Communications can also be carried along many other bands of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as microwaves.

5. Aren't most people who see and believe in UFOs suffering from mental problems?

This is often the analysis of many armchair amateur psychologists Sigmund Freud want-a-be's. They eventually show themselves to be more of a Sigmund Fraud than a Sigmund Freud.
These type of critics are absolutely certain that there have never been extraterrestrial spacecraft in our skies. So in their minds eye the problem must be with the eyewitness. They ignore the fact that 98.9% of the people who witness a UFO sighting are perfectly sane, rational and normal. An argument could also be made that these same skeptics are terrified of the idea of beings from other world, something perhaps which they could not control in their own little circle.
Another explanation of those scientist which "debunk" this sort of E.T. idea is that they often work for the U.S. Government, sometimes in a covert manner, so one must look at where their loyalties and paycheck lie.

This brings about the subject of the U.S. Government. Most citizensof the U.S. believe there is more to this subject then the government is telling them. About 50% to 60% of the public believe that E.T. have visited our world at some time. So why is the government so secretive, what could they have to hide?

If extraterrestrial have come here, could they still be here? Yes they could.

If they are still here, where would you expect to find them, at the top of the society or at the bottom of the society? At the top, of course.

What could they look like? They could look like normal human beings, because they could be normal human beings. Rich powerful normal human beings.

One should ask oneself what is more likely, we were created by an invisible, all powerful, omniscient, magical old man in the sky.
-or-
We were created by beings like ourselves who harnessed science to the point of being able to cross the galaxy at faster than light speed, or create a blackhole effect transporting them across the universe. Perhaps they came here and found an apelike creature not quite human yet and advanced his evolution using their own DNA.
