That's what frightens governments as they have totally no control over the situation.
It would really be something if "disclosure" actually turned out to mean something essentially philosophical that would toss a huge number of longstanding myths or philosophies right into the garbage. The truth of existence, and not just fantasies about creatures from other planets visiting Earth in metallic flying saucers or powerful gods controlling people's lives and creating natural disasters to teach us a lesson. "Our limited animal forms allow us to experience and comprehend about .0001 percent of reality. We're surrounded by powerful controlling entities beyond our ability to even define and we're like bugs or shadows to them. No Gods. No afterlife. Just a quick pointless existence and we're out." The truth dumbed down just enough for us to understand that we're completely screwed.
I'd like to see how people would react to something like that.
When I speak of a control system for planet earth, I do not want my words to be misunderstood: I do not mean that some higher order of beings has locked us inside the constraints of a space-bound jail, closely monitored by psychic entities we might call angels or demons. I do not propose to redefine God. What I do mean is that mythology rules at a level of our social reality over which normal political and intellectual action has no power."

I meant to comment earlier - Gary Larson is great, the Far Side has always been a favorite of mine.
...have a glance - I couldn't see the one you're referring to, but I distinctly remember seeing it a long time ago.

You know, Valles's "control system" idea always interested me. One reason is that I always wondered why Vallee made such an ambiguous statement: control system.
...I think he’s saying the alien phenomena we witness is telling us something—it’s some form of feedback. A closed control system gives feedback an open one doesn’t.

Suppose a civilization or group of civilizations were to arise and advance at a pace where they may even overcome physical bodies and become more ethereal in being. Beings whom inherently pass into more etheric dimensions as well, where consciousness take a more pronounced roll and thoughts almost manifest reality in a more subtle way.

Promising researcher Rick Strassman to propose that *** was made by the pineal gland in humans; a speculation that was popularized in the 2010 movie “'___': The Spirit Molecule.” The pineal gland has long been popular.
Pineal Gland *** – What the Science Says - EntheoNation
What is the function of *** in the pineal gland?
Dimethyltryptamine *** One of the functions of the pineal gland is the production of melatonin. The pineal gland and melatonin help regulate sleep-wake cycles (circadian rhythms). The production of melatonin by the pineal gland is stimulated by darkness and inhibited by light. D*T exists in our brains in order to provide consciousness,...

I think that the Quantum Paradox explains what UFO's really are.
It basically states that anything we can think of, we will, at some time in the future, be able to manifest or accomplish what ever that is.
One of those things is time travel. We will solve how to do it. The paradox kicks in because we will visit ourselves like we have throughout history. It follows that UFO's are ourselves in the future visiting us. It makes the most sense to me.

...in saying that though, there's a few intelligent people who would seem to have a different perspective on it.

There are no time machines, there never will be. If there were, we would already have them.

I'll stick with the opinions of physicists on this one.
Debating something's potential based on theoretical models is likely to lead to a range of opinions.
I wouldn't say any of them are accurate, but opinions are one thing and dis-proving a hypothesis requires a bit more than just an opinion.
You're clearly in the no camp and I'm sitting on the fence.

Well, if we did have them, they would certainly be kept about as secret as possible or they would be useless. As it is, I think that there's a good chance that they do exist, in secret, but whoever is controlling them is making our timeline go all wonky. Not necessarily in a bad way all the time -- we got computers out of it FWIW -- but with events happening that wouldn't have happened if they hadn't interfered.
