I absolutely agree
People need to stop listening and start believing their own eyes! Ignore those who ridicule, in fact be suspicious of them!
I'm most suspicious of people who reject critical thinking in favor of emotional fervor, regardless of which side of the normative condition they fall
on. The people that refuse to question anything and simultaneously the people who think everything is a conspiracy, both forms of thinking are equally
fallacious and silly. Would it not be wiser to state, "In truth, I know nothing?"
The wisest people seem to know the least. Just food for thought.
People around here are eager to discuss their beliefs. "I believe this," or, "I believe that." I'd rather discover undeniable truth, instead of
pontificating on my beliefs, which in truth is very similar to the concept of religious faith. Personally, I have as little interest in religion as I
do the members on here supposedly in "telepathic communication" with aliens.
I've recently seen my first UFO. As interesting as it was, the only thing I
know about the object was that I was unable to identify it. For me
to then go ahead and exclaim I saw an "alien craft", and that "I think they're probably making themselves known to those with an open mind", etc, is
little more than meaningless conjecture that is not conducive to intelligent conversation. My thoughts on "human mentality" are very, very simple:
Just as eagerly as many here criticize the bleating sheep of "normal" society, many on ATS are little more than their reciprocal with a different
agenda.
